    In my opinion Appen is the toughest to get into, so for someone new to rating LB or LF would be your best choice.

    Thanks again Catwoman1975, submitted my application to Lionbridge, so now just a waiting game. I do wonder whether i should just try Appen as well, or whether to leave it for a while. What do you think? Thanks

    You shouldn't apply to more than more than one of these companies at once, so I would leave it a while and see if Lionbridge get back to you. Maybe try Appen in a month if you dont hear anything. Good Luck!

    Hi,

    How do the hours work at LF or LB? Eg. if I want to work 10-12 hours a week, can I do 2 hours on a Monday morning at 7am and then 10 hours on a Saturday?

    Thanks
  • For international raters, the hours aren't usually that regular. It's more a case of "work it when it's there". During the better months (like this one) there's a bit more pick-and-choose though.
  • I've got a resit exam for the LF Yukon project and need some advise on one or two things that aren't covered in the guidelines. Can someone pm me please if they've ever worked on this project.

    Am I right in thinking that LF pays by the hour and LB pays per task? In that case, does LB pay turn out to be low?

    Wondering if I should be bothering applying to LF now, because of this hiring freeze...

    Think it depends on what job you apply for,the lionbridge internet assessor job pays by the hour....I've applied for leapforce but not heard anything,hope they still keep the applications on file until they start rehiring again

    Thanks. However, for the internet assessor job at LB, they say "Payment will be based on completion of the agreed upon tasks", so I'm confused...

    Hmmmm not sure what that means,but I only finished last month and it was definitely paid by the hour,they check you're not putting down more hours than you say you've done (fair enough) but apart from that they were pretty good at paying,I had no problems.

    Oh ok, thanks! Perhaps I'll just go for LB instead of LF :)
