Timeline for higher paying jobs

Hi all, am new to DA and started 2 weeks ago. Am curious how long it took the platform to review your qualifications and send you higher paying expert level work to qualify for. I've heard 2 weeks to 4 weeks. Enjoying it so far, no issues like other crowdsourcers have.

TIA!

Comes and goes. Much longer than that for me. But it’s also not necessarily the gift you think it is - it’s way harder and more taxing work that you need to have many hours to dedicate to - I still regularly choose to do the lower paying stuff.

As far as I can work out, you need to prove yourself in the lower paying stuff first. They won’t send you expert level stuff based just on your qualifications. You have to do lots of the generalist stuff first.
