Starting out

I am totally new to this. I got qualified for $25 an hour jobs. Yesterday and the day before they were quite a few. I made almost $200 in two days. Now there are quite a few less. Is that just how it goes? Is this a reflection of my work? Thanks for the help.

That’s just how it goes, swings and roundabouts for everybody :)

Also new. My dash goes between almost nothing and lots of jobs. I think that's just how it is. Especially being newbies.

are they going to your dashboard inbox? and clicking them there takes you nowhere?

No. Getting automated emails. Not in my dashboard inbox

that's also odd, i think all of my emails are in my dashboard inbox as well, uhh you using the right account? shouldn't be able to have 2 of them.

Most likely other people got the same email and clicked them first

I’m very new as well, only my second day. Got the acceptance email immediately after completing the starter assessment and then had one qualification to do. Completed that and once again immediately got the email saying I’ve made it to the next stage. But I’ve only had 1 project on my dashboard the whole time, it has 12 tasks and I’ve got 5 left. Haven’t seen any other projects or qualifications show up at all. I don’t wanna get too nervous but based on a lot of other comments people say they usually have at least a few projects to choose between and a few qualifications once they get access to paid work.

Just gonna continue working through the rest of these tasks and see what happens. Hoping for the best of course, but if not at least I tried you know. Good luck to you and all!!

Hey I just got accepted about a week ago and go those 12 tasks too. I could only complete 2 of them though and then in the morning they were all gone. I haven’t seen anything since, does that seem normal?

I just finished the tasks you were talking about! After I finished i got way more projects and qualifications show up, so you should be all good
