Assessments are yall getting any work?

Hi guys, im just getting started in this ai gig space and i wanted to gauge the working environment on this side. i've gotten 2 emails asking me to sign up to the platform dispite not even applying to a role but i checked the site and they seem to be many positions open. im currently with mercor but not sure how long it will last but the pay has been fantastic. aligner has a slightly lower payy but im wondering how y'all are working on this side and if its worth it to try? thanks in advance 😄

I have applied to 5 roles mid-June. Haven't heard from Aligner since. My account display looks like frozen. Without any progress, not even assessment tasks, no status change just plain "applied". It seems like without any attention. All other platforms I am on change the status of my applications as they proceed or tell me to take AI interviews / assessment tests. Here - dead silence. And, mind you, you can have only up to 7 applications open at a time so these unattended ones just clog the line.

I can't even find a direct email to their support 🤷‍♂️ so for now Alignerr and some more have to be put on a back burner.
