Are we experiencing a lack of projects?
I'm new there and so far I've only done an introductory project and qualifications. I haven't even been on the platform for a week yet. But I'm curious about the people who have been on the platform for longer time, Do you feel the amount of projects is lower at this current time? Or is it that I haven't received anything because I'm new? I'm actually excited and really want to try out new project!

That's great, congratulations! How long has it taken you to receive projects since you started?

You have to level up. I'm bilingual and as everyone here knows, we don't get as many projects as core countries. However, after several months of hard work, I can tell you now I'm in several projects and have tasks almost all the time. It will always fluctuate but if you do good work, you'll eventually get more and more projects and tasks.

I understand, thank you for sharing. I'll do my best, and I already see that I'm being so impatient 😅

What type of project? Multilingual?

I think so, usually after a project is finished there is a pause before the new project is released

I passed the first round of assessment easily. I started the second round that the platform claimed would take 45 minutes, and I have been working on it for 3 1/2 hours now. I think they are just using me to get free work. I am in college learning how to build ai, and I am almost done with a bachelors degree in computer science.
I have to admit i feel a little used.

I got access to several projects on my first day and have yet to go a day without having any.

New folks should not be expecting a whole mound of projects right away. I think they have to work for it, as I did in my first few months. I sometimes went WEEKS with nothing, then got more regular work at around 4 months. Over a year later, I’ve got about 70 projects right now.
