I am also out of work, with no HitApps available. So hopefully it's just that they're out.

I remember this used to happen with LB, and it can be annoying..

I'm pretty sure it's just run out. I was rating late last night and there were <100 left when I finished, and then I assume whoever is rating with me snatched 'em up in the morning.

Had some RTAs over the last 24 hours.. hoping I did okay though.

None for me yet. Although didn't start work today till after 5.

Looking forward to first pay sometime in the next week hopefully.

First RTAs for me too. With this work I seem to get things right when I don't overthink, as opposed to ABH which required just the right amount of overthinking, depending on the tides...

I hope the auditors stay the same, that's the real trick.

Had a load today finally. Only got 3 wrong, so looks as if I'm OK for now. Was still getting them just before I logged off, though, so hoping they don't keep on coming all through the weekend..

I think today marks about 1 month since I started working for iSoftStone.

So far, not a great deal to moan about!

I think the metrics are achievable, and the task, although not wildly interesting, is better than that offered by Appen..

Hoping things stay the same.. and looking forward to the first pay packet!

Yep, first month now completed!

Easy task today, so managed over 4 hours for the first time. Although not entirely convinced I'm rating them all correctly due to the lack of guidelines/feedback..

Definitely easier and less stressful than Appen, and probably LB as well, TBH. And also good to know that our pay rate is higher at the same time!

Very easy today. Really enjoying the flexibility of the role - it does mean I do less hours than under Appen because I can choose just not to work if I'm not in the mood - but I prefer it this way. It's also great being able to work at any time and any day - the 4 hours Mon-Fri rule under Appen seemed really draconian.

All in all, providing things continue as they are, I'm really happy with iSS.

I'm finding this MUCH more to my liking than appen, glad to hear it's the same for you too.

For me doing the 20 hours with 4 hours every day was just much more taxing than it should have been. With LB I would do some long days and some days nothing at all, or in between, and I'm doing the same here and easily doing more hours total than ABH now
