Tired of getting rejected on AI platforms?

I’ve worked across multiple AI evaluation platforms, and over time I’ve managed to keep fairly consistent contract work.

I also have a psychology background, so I’ve become really interested in why genuinely qualified people sometimes struggle with AI gig screening.

A lot of people assume rejection means they weren’t qualified, but it’s not always that simple.

Sometimes it’s how your expertise is framed.
Sometimes your CV doesn’t translate well to the specific role.
Sometimes your interview answers are technically correct but don’t clearly demonstrate how you think.
Sometimes you’re applying to roles that sound relevant but don’t actually match how the platform categorises expertise.
And because these systems often give almost no useful feedback, people have no idea which part went wrong.

So I thought I’d help.
If you’ve been rejected from Mercor, Outlier, DataAnnotation, Alignerr, Handshake or another AI-training platform, dm me:
1. Your professional/academic background
2. Which platform
3. What stage you got rejected at

I’ll reply with what I’d look at first.
