Anyone done the qualifier for Project Catalyst? I'm very reluctant as the payrate is so poor for the type of work.0

That one isn’t showing up for me.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

I've been waiting to see what the actual time taken looks like because they're being cheapskates insofar as AI work goes but so far it looks like it takes every minute of the 90 plus a couple more. However I'm pretty sure they've changed the wording of the intro as it now says its a qualifier for a specific higher paying study starting soon. I'm fairly sure it didn't say that at first. 5000 places though, never seen that many for anything !!onemouseplace said:Anyone done the qualifier for Project Catalyst?

I'm not interested in the Project Catalyst one at that rate either. Uptake looks slow as there's still over 4600 places left.0

Yes, only about 75 people have done it since I left the house before lunch, which is pretty unusual. I'm going to leave it until they either up the rate, or confirm the rate for work if we qualify.Value said:I'm not interested in the Project Catalyst one at that rate either.

I just think 90 minutes is far too long even for a decent rate of pay. I’m sure most people’s concentration will be gone by then.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

So...I just did the project catalyst. It's similar to DA. Very boring though with so many tick boxes. I also skipped the final task as it was confusing (even though I think I had already completed the 5 tasks it said to) and I had already clocked 1hr 40mins. The pay was so low for the length for sure!1

I'm just reading the guidelines and they are practically identical to the 13-point ratings task on DA which I've done before. This better be worth it if I pass!0
