I've finally found a few minutes to sit down and look at all this Appen stuff for Raven

I've acknowledged all the forms and just filled in my payment details and now it seems I am waiting for those to be approved before I can start

I've noticed that if don't hit submit before it gets to 0.00 it takes you to the next set of queries. I wasnt sure if that was the maximum time allowed on each set? I'm just guessing.

Hi everyone pretty new to all this!

I have done about 4 hours work today but still confused! Do we log all our hours on the time sheet section? As in the urgent email mine said they log your time on the Appen site but am really not sure on that and am still also confused if it is a 20hour a week 6 month contract?

I think the work that we do on Appen Global is tracked by them and anything that was done on the other platform you had to report yourself on the timesheet. Only problem is, I can only see the hours that I have entered myself, I can't see any of the hours that I have done so I'm confused. I was reading over the guidelines again and it does seem to be 20 hours for 6 months, although the original email said it was a one day for 8 hours??!! I am hoping we get some kind of confirmation soon but in the meantime I am doing as much as I can fit in.

Just log how many hours you do..

So if you work for 2 hours just log 2 hours...

I was confused by this as well so sent them a query about this on Friday pm our time. Appen are based in Australia so my message would have reached them early morning Saturday their time. I hope for some clarification by breakfast tomorrow UK time as that gives their project managers all day Monday (Oz time) to get back to me.

According to the email, they sent on Friday, you only need to log the hours for the tasks being completed in Crowdflower. Anything completed in Appen Global is automatically tracked.

Same dropped them a message on Friday hoping they will get back to me tomorrow too, I have been keeping a written copy of my hours just incase and would love to know the set contract, I am hoping for the 20 hours :D

Well, no email from Appen overnight for me. I'm not prepared to do loads of hours on the task when I'm not sure if I am employed to do so or not. Wouldn't want to do 20 hours and not get paid!
