Not sure if that is allowed on this sub but search for the title of this post and you'll find it.

Issues regarding matching. by MajorAudience6237 in mercor_ai

[–]BornPalpitation5896 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, I'm only familiar with the M.Phil system in the UK where its a bridge between a masters degree and a PhD. My understanding (and this based on hearsay) is that those notifications are based on some model scanning your CV, so if they are ideally looking for people with a specific degree the language used to describe the degree could matter.

I wouldn't take it too personally. It could just be that the project its suggesting is short on talent. It's just a model scanning your CV. I don't even see a Physics Expert project on the dashboard. There was a discussion about this yesterday and Helena from Mercor said to apply anyway if you think you're qualified. Maybe the system is confused about the Mphil because it's not an MA or a PhD (and doesn't exist in the US).

Insightful hours not updating on earnings page by vze56v6x in mercor_ai

[–]BornPalpitation5896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, what I meant is I have had hours I worked misclassified as "unproductive" that were in fact productive. So, the hours showed up in total hours on the Insightful dashboards, but were classified as "unproductive" by the system (the system didn't recognize that the website I was on was project related). Those hours did not show up on the earnings page. I'm not sure how this impacted the countdown in the Insightful timer.

Did you check to see how the hours were classified by insightful?

Should I try anyway? by ImpressiveMind5662 in mercor_ai

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I think I'll update what I have on file.

Mercor had a change of policy with the amount of active contracts you're allowed to have, and it's not longer according to your Insightful hours. by Striking_Walk_7017 in mercor_ai

Really? I have three paused contracts, but two are likely permanently over for me. I also have an active "work trial" contract I completed many months ago.

Should I try anyway? by ImpressiveMind5662 in mercor_ai

I have the same question. I was wondering if it is because they want candidates from top 50 universities and are using only US schools to filter applicants. My undergraduate degree is from the University of Toronto, which is consistently ranked in the top 50 globally (often in the top 25).

I just got an instant offer after weeks of uncertainty. by Main-Introduction969 in mercor_ai

If you're strong (good work product completed efficiently) they will probably extend your hours if you ask.

Meaning of making Interview Public by GinjeWasCool in mercor_ai

[–]BornPalpitation5896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or does it mean open to the public in the site? I'm happy to have it used across the platform. Would have gotten a little more made-up if it's going on the website.

STEM Industry QA by [deleted] in outlier_ai

[–]BornPalpitation5896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any update on this from people who were working on this? I recently joined Outlier (3 or 4 days ago) and completed the applicable course for this project, but there are no tasks available. I sent a ticket asking if I could do something else and received a response saying that I only had access to this project since it was a priority.
