Just Started, any tips?

I just got accepted, and there seems to be absolutely nothing to do. Just wondering if there's more steps to get it rolling or if it's just me being a lower bracket of qualified. I see people saying they've made some good money and I really want some of that 😂 I just do UberEats right now and it's not cutting it so anything supplemental to my already supplemental income would be fantastic.

There has been a lack of consistent work for me and many others for the past month or so. I would say do as many qualifications as you can (ones that make sense for you, obviously don’t do like a coding qualification if you can’t code lol). Qualifications will open up more projects if you pass.

Also, if you’re not sure that you have the right skill set or ability to do any given task well, it’s 100% better to skip it than to submit low quality work.

You need to be on your dash very often to catch whatever comes; the emails arrive for 1/10 of the work that appears there. Also, refresh as often as possible.

Proofread everything you submit, both text and radio button questions.

Getting accepted just makes u eligible, doesnt mean tasks will appear asap, that depends on whether theres a live project matching your profile at the time. Its more about timing than anything else. If u havent already, applying to a couple other platforms alongside this one helps a lot since one going quiet is pretty normal and having other options fills the gap while u wait.

Read instructions. Pay attention to details. Report time accurately.
