Ugh - that was awful - took me just under two hours and that didn't include reading the instructions (which I was already reasonably familiar with) and the 166 page example deck!! Dreadful, I won't be sorry if I don't qualify! Plus the UI was horrible - it was just the rating numbers so you had to click back to the rubric for absolutely every question.3

Let's see what the pay is like for the actual projects when they come through!onemouseplace said:Ugh - that was awful - took me just under two hours and that didn't include reading the instructions (which I was already reasonably familiar with) and the 166 page example deck!!

The project is there now, assuming you passed. Its $18 per hr not great but better.0

I'm not seeing it so assume I haven't passed, but no great shakes at that payrate ($2 an hour less than DA for the same work).0

Notice people not liking the payrate of $18 an hour. I certainly do one at that rate. Think that's an excellent amount.Making the debt go down and savings go up

For me, it depends on the length of the study; I will accept one on a lower rate-per-hour if it is a shorter study, but for a longer one I want a higher rate-per-hourl (I know there is very little logic to that!)0

For me it is relative to other platforms that offer similar work but for higher rates so it feels like they are trying to get away with paying the lowest possible amount. I have the option to choose higher rates, so I will.0

What others? Didn't know there were others similar/ better than PA.onemouseplace said:For me it is relative to other platforms that offer similar work but for higher rates so it feels like they are trying to get away with paying the lowest possible amount.

Agreed! My tab says I've been selected for this project but can't see anything yet. But would definitely rather do DA for more money when it's the same work!

I finally got the Catalyst qualification but I don't think I want to do it.
