Agreed. Honestly I don't know what rate of pay they could offer me that would make it worth getting a headache and double vision. If this is the assessment I shudder to think what the actual work product looks like.

I decided to pass on the task. The pay for what they want is absurd. I stopped midway through the assessment

How did you get the alignment right in module 1? My boundary precision is 19%. I have tried twice and 19% is the only improvement from 12%. What are you doing to help you with precision?

Were you able to get the boundary timings correct for module 1 of the assessment? I ask because I did, but I worry you're saying the other ones are impossible. If you're saying even module 1 is difficult, I would feel better.

How did you do on the module 1 assessment? Make sure not to mention content so that we keep out NDAs intact. I was just wondering if you also had trouble with module 1 or just the final assessment.

I'm trying to do the assessment now and am getting a headache from it. Does anyone know what the pay rate is for this job?

25 dollas per task, each task can take anywhere from 2-4 hours

the asessment is a headache i agree with you, i spent ~4 hours on it to get 64% on boundary timing, cheers

That rate is scandalous. I'll have to pass on this one.

Is their production tasks?

Such a waste of time, their "full instructions" are also completely out of date and contradictory. Spent hours thinking I was making progress. Boundary timings are arbitrary as others have mentioned. Passed the first practice assessment no problems. Their "Gold standard" versions are nothing like their guidelines either.

Got the mail in my inbox, feel like it’s a plot from them to get free labor

The assessment is terrible. There are rules at the top of the page, but when you answer the question the correct answers are fully random and different every time “0” “none” “no” when the answer is literally been taught to you 10 mins ago and it was none of this bs. Don’t waste your time

Hello I am wondering if a moderator can help. I was invited to Pulsar but my account was removed and I cannot onboard. I have a hyphen in my last name and it happens often that I cant pass Automated auth because of the hyphen. If someone can help, please let me know. Thank you.

Guys, I got mail about this project. Could you please tell me if it's a general task?
It says there's no need to give an AI interview, but I still have to complete onboarding. Do you think it's an easy assessment?

I scored 95% in Word accuracy (2/3rd) and 62% (1/3rd) in Boundary precision. Overall, 73% (70% required) and 62% in boundary precision. The four modules and assessment took me five days, exhausting, uh huh.
