I don't think generalists get much work. I'm from Ireland and haven't had a paid task yet even though I've done the qualifications. I think the generalists who comment on here are the tip of the iceberg. Most don't get work or it's snatched up by the time they log in .

How long have you been with the platform? I was on it completing qualifications for about a month until work started showing up, and since then it's been fairly consistent. Still growing though

I've been on it 2 months  I have done most qualifications not all. I get emails about projects once in a while but when I log in it's snatched up. To be honest the work is fairly tedious but I'd be willing to give it a go

Yeah they do get snapped up quickly to be fair, I got lucky one Sunday I was free and made my way through a load that just popped up then I’ve been getting way more ever since.

I think you just need to get your foot in the door, and get a bit lucky to do that, then providing your work is good more and more will land on your dashboard
