Hi everyone, I'm looking to this company and thinking of applying. If successful, are the jobs based on where you live ? Thanks

You work from home but there are usually different jobs for different countries. Sometimes there is a bit of overlap between countries that speak the same language.

Has anyone working for Appen for their social media or web evaluation successfully increased their hours with relative ease?

I am assigned to 1 hour per day day (I was being realistic but feel I will be able to do more) but they seem quite set on it being just 1 hour per day..or should I say it doesn't seem that easy to increase.

Did anyone else start on 1 or 2 hours and have increased to 3 or 4?

Never increased my hours but I certainly could have done 3 or 4 times the "hour" I was assigned.

However, I think there is more value for them to have a wide variety of people doing it with differing demographics.

Worth dropping them an email though. I always think that if you show willing and enthusiasm you're more likely to be on the top of the pile when they are next recruiting.

Good luck

I know it can't be discussed but is the hourly pay decent? 1 hr per day for me would be achievable but need to do the sums. Above min wage for WSE positions?

Hi @Lizziew24 I am trying to join them at the moment for WSE (actually did the test today, eek!). From reading threads I understand that it is more than the minimum wage but a NDA means that nobody would be able to give an amount anyway.

HTH

I've done a google search and £10 per hr is mentioned...but as you say the NDA in situ means it's anyone's guess! I'm going to apply anyway and see!
Hope the test went ok! Fingers crossed for you :)

Appen are still looking for people to do the multi call recording work that pays £45. 12 very short calls to a friend or family member, you can discuss anything.

Expression of interest form is here for anyone who's interested and didn't apply when Jon posted it last week.

https://appen.formstack.com/forms/uk_multi_recruit

I'd be grateful if you'd include my ID R798 if you do fill it out and I will receive a small fee :)

Good luck and any questions give me a shout. I've also created a new thread for this- hope that's ok @Jon

Go for it @Lizziew24 and thanks :) (be even more disappointed to fail now if it is about the amount mentioned).

Hi, @jonv21 I got 88% pass for the search part but still waiting to hear about the remainder. Congratulations on getting through :)

On another note, I have been accepted for their Crowdsourcing tasks and have just received an email today about that.

I applied for the phone task mentioned on here - got an email from them to say they did not have the email address I quoted (despite it being my account one?) and to apply again, which I did. STILL not heard back, so assume I won't get it now. Daren't apply again.

Anyone else find Appen confusing though - there is appenonline, talent.appen and global.appen - so I check them all, ha ha!

Completely agree about the numerous sites being confusing. For me, there should be one main portal and you can navigate from there.

Their emails aren't always the easiest to understand either. It is very much a figure it out yourself kind of set up. But hey ho, if I can earn some sort of wage from it then I'm quite happy.

I've had an email this evening which I can't decide if it's a fob off. Appen acknowledge my application and will be in touch when something comes up. Mmm.

Anyone doing the call recording?

I'm having issues with this task - completed 9 of the 12 calls with no issues, then 2 of the remaining pins are invalid (receive the same 'Pin is invalid' message, after trying many times, manually typing in the pin, restarting my browser, logging out and back in etc.) and 1 of the pins just doesn't work - the automated message plays for both the caller and receiver but then it will not connect, and so just drops before we get to talk to each other.

I emailed yesterday, but no reply - I guess with it being the weekend the office is closed? Annoyingly the deadline is tomorrow and according to the FAQs you won't be paid if you completed less than 10 calls :mad:
