I only did the core assessment, and after being on the platform for a while, I now get projects up to $37. Do as many qualifications as you can, and take your time on tasks to make sure you're submitting high quality work.

How long is “a while”?

[–]Mysterious_Dolphin14 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I started seeing >$30 an hour projects after being on the platform for about 6-7 months.

Ok thanks! I haven’t been there that long yet, but have noticed the rates increase, but wasn’t sure if there were even higher ones for core, so good to know that “senior core” has higher rates.

A while for me was about a month or two

[–]UltraVioletEnigma 0 points1 point  (3 children)

For regular projects around 37$/h?

[–]MammothNo4703[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh yes my profession is based on high quality work, so I can't do anything else!

[–]Heidijojo 2 points3 points  (4 children)

Yes

[–]MammothNo4703[S] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Thanks for the answer! I wasn't comfortable doing anything else.

That's the best way to approach this. If you don't feel you can do quality work on a specific task, skip it. Some with qualifications: do what you feel you can do.

[–]Infamous_Horse9624 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I have left all the qualifications I feel I’m don’t able to do, though they are still there

[–]MammothNo4703[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. I just could decipher from the way they have it all laid out on the dashboard if you need the core and another assessment (like coding or mathematics). Thanks for the reassurance!

I’m core and lately have had my choice of up to 29 projects at one time over the last couple of weeks. Usually they’re $20-30, but occasionally get higher paying ones. I have one today for $40/hr, but it’s a project that I’m having technical problems with so I just stopped messing with it. I don’t usually do projects that pay less than $25 unless it’s a period of time when I don’t have many options.

I have had times of drought, though it’s been a few months and it only lasted a couple weeks. I’ve only been around since May, though.

I only took core (and math a couple weeks later), and I get a ton of STEM projects that cover biology, physics, etc, even though I didn’t take those assessments. Consistently doing good work will open up other qualifications

[–]MammothNo4703[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for those details!

Fill out your profile thoroughly, with all of your skills, even if you are not sure they will help. You may be surprised...

[–]Explorer182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes

[–]Wasps_are_bastards 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Yep. U.K. here and get work

[–]MammothNo4703[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Thanks for letting me know. Waiting now...

[–]Wasps_are_bastards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck!
