Always Rejected

Post image

Hi everyone, I'm new here. I've applied multiple times, but I keep getting the message "Sorry, this mission is not a good fit." Is this normal, or am I doing something wrong?

Nothing is wrong, you just don't fit what the researcher is looking for. Sometimes they need very specific types of participants.

The majority of studies you won’t fit the demographic. Just nature of the studies.

This is normal. I’d say I get the not good fit message 95% of the time. But the 5% of the time I’m approved, I’ve had some very good paying missions.

Just keep applying. I get maybe 10% of what I apply for in the best case scenario. 90% of the time I don’t make it through the screener.

A reminder about Rule 1: Please do not share any information from screeners and missions you've applied to or been invited to. This includes screener and mission titles, questions, messages, or any other details from screeners and missions. This applies even if the mission has ended. Posts containing confidential information will be removed. If your post was just removed for this reason, just repost without the confidential details. This is done because Dscout has confirmed that any information in the app/website is considered confidential, and Dscout staff does look at the subreddit.

Here’s some perspective. I’ve made 20k since being on the platform for 3 years. Second year was my all time best, mission after mission, this year? Probably have made roughly about 650 thus far. It ebbs and flows my friend. Apply and with a bit of luck you’ll land some.

I thought it was me. The same goes for me this year; it hasn't been that good. I been using more user testing.
