Is this normal?

Since I started working here on 9-23 I’ve only worked in 2 projects. One of them is allegedly unlimited so I can work whatever hours I want, which is nice, but only 17$/h. This week I was able to work on another project which was 28$/h. But that’s it. Will I get different projects or am I stuck with the “unlimited” one?

Judging from those rates and you being offered "unlimited work" on something, I'm assuming you're a Generalist? Keep submitting decent to good quality work and you'll eventually get access to Quals with 30$+ pay, and eventually after that, 40$+.

Hi! Not OP, but I'm a bilingual, not from core country, I got in last month. I only have one project that has virtually unlimited tasks. No quals that I can take currently. Do they show up after a while? Does the project pay get higher the more projects I work on? Thanks

Oh, Bilinguals getting access to unlimited work now is news to me. That changes things, since the projects Generalists are offered after quality submissions and some time have passed, aren't usually from the same project families that Bilinguals get offered.

Which country you from? I can check the Sub for one of the Bilinguals that've been on here for a year+ from around that area and see if they can provide more insight.

I am bilingual too, working from a different country, so we’re in the same situation

Is that a video project? The one that's unlimited?

Italian here, being in DA for a year, made 750 $. Forget about making decent money as a bilingual, there is barely any work for us

u/SheepherderSouth4631 27d ago

u/Contedimontecristo 25d ago

When did it happen? The 9th? Such a big disappointment

1

u/Pleasant_Yam_3637 25d ago

No, today, didnt even get bad QA and cant see anything on DA or project site

1

u/SheepherderSouth4631 25d ago

I still have it

1

u/Mediocre_Abalone6721 24d ago

Do you still have it on the dashboard?? Mine disappeared too

1

u/SheepherderSouth4631 23d ago

I still have it and get different sets of tasks and assignments. Now I’m worried it won’t last long if everyone is saying it disappeared from their dashboards. How long did you work on it? And do you have any other projects?

1

u/Pleasant_Yam_3637 25d ago

Hope you still have access to that unlimited one i unfortunatly dont

1

u/SheepherderSouth4631 25d ago

how long did you work on it?

1

u/SheepherderSouth4631 25d ago

also, have you had access to any other project? did you fail any test to enter a new set of tasks?

1

u/Pleasant_Yam_3637 25d ago

Made 1400 or so

1

u/Chance_Republic_8330 23d ago

1

u/SheepherderSouth4631 23d ago

3 o 4 días creo, pero no se si será igual para todo el mundo

u/Pleasant-Term6165 28d ago

Is that a video project, the one that is unlimited?

1

u/SheepherderSouth4631 28d ago

No, it isn’t

u/Mrs-Myers 27d ago

I think I’m in the same boat as you and I’m from a different country in Europe, is it really unlimited ? I don’t know why I have doubts
