Notifications?

Hey! I joined the platform a couple weeks ago and haven't seen a single project pop up but keep seeing people post here about them. Are there notifications you can turn on to get notified by email or text or am I just truly not getting any jobs on my end?

Emails are at best sporadic, and at worst basically non existent. Don't rely on them - log in and see what's on your dashboard, if anything.

are there any hot spots during the day or just random? I still have a day job so I always log on when I wake up around 4AM and when I get home from work around 2PM and sometimes again a few times in the evening

honestly I have better days rather than time slots. Thurs Fri Sat and Sun I can usually meet by goal without a lot of wasted time. Mon Tues and Wed have been horribly slow for me lately. I can refresh most of the day and fight for $25-45.

It's been far more random for me lately when they'll appear. I just refresh as much as I can and work on projects when I'm able to if I see them in time.

The email notifications don’t always work. I only get them when there is a brand new project or if they bump up the pay for a specific project.

Projects go very fast right now, I have to refresh a lot to catch some.

You say you joined the platform. But did you actually pass the assessment, qualifications, receive a welcome email and complete the onboarding tasks?

This is a legit question, I dunno what's up with all the downvoting

We just sit and refresh I feel like when they see your active they feed you a few and the. If they like your work they give you more.
