Appen [OT] Appen Work Opportunities

[Jon]

I thought I had the power to do this type of work but after an hour I just don't anymore lol

 

[fintonstack]

It is very tedious.

I wouldn't mind seeing their record of the hours I have done if only so I can compare it with my own records.

 

[Jaxx01]

I can only manage an hour a time.

 

[Jaxx01]

The tasks in the email for the other platform have finished for me now, can we go back to working via appen global now?!

Yes same here, that's what I've been doing.

 

[fintonstack]

I don't know how I managed 8 hours on Friday!

You've got far more will power than me!

 

[Lizziew24]

Am I right in thinking they want 30 per hour?

 

[fintonstack]

I think so.

Does anyone know what Pending Review means? - I've just logged on but it won't let me carry on working. Hope I've not done it wrong...!!

 

[ktkt]

I'm glad I found this thread. Feel a bit nervous about the lack of info supplied so far.

 

[Lizziew24]

And is there any further clarity if we can do up to 20 hrs or just what we can?

you need just wait :/ I have the same pending review Wrote them and get email they have some problem so need wait some time while they can add my into project.

About Raven - I did work with Raven last year twice, both time I get "6 months" but both times it were terminated after 2 months I has so lucky about that job, had savings goals, but few weeks and sorry you are terminated :/

I'd like some clarification about the hours too, it said in the second email I received that we could work up to 35 hours per week and not more than 8 hours per day, it didn't say there was a minimum we had to do (unless I've missed it).

 

[ktkt]

Oh and a tip for the timing, they want a minimum of 30 per hour, which is 2 minutes for each one, the time at the bottom counts down from 3 minutes so as long as when you submit there is still usually 1 minute + left on the timer that should work out.. I think!

I could feasibly do an hour a day on this but there seems to have been so may variations/interpretations regarding what they want that I’m totally lost now!!

I've just struggled through another half an hour, time goes slowly doing these.

To add to the confusion I'm just reading the "My availability" page (click on your name in the top right to find it), it says reserved hours: 1, Maximum hours: 19. I can change the slider to show my available hours.
It also specifies Reserved Hours Total represents the total number of hours you have committed to those projects. I understand that as meaning I have to do 1 hour per week and can do a maximum of 19 (which is less than the email said).

Oohhh that’s useful info. Will look tonight...

 

[Knopfler]

I can only do them in spurts of 15-20 mins at a time, then have a break as being on the computer doesn't seem to agree with me these days.

I know we had to fill out a Time Report for the second project but according to the email it said that Appen would record the times etc. on this project, so we don't have to do anything, is that correct? Or is anyone on here going into their time sheets or anything else to do something? It is really confusing, isn't it.

Thanks for that @ktkt . I had actually seen it but could not fathom out what it meant. I hope your interpretation is correct as that would be brilliant for me to be able to do between 1 - 19 hours per week.
I think that is a lot better than HAVING to do 4 hours per day - which is a big commitment for most folks, especially this time of year

 

[Knopfler]

Hopefully we will hear something from Appen today or tomorrow to clarify things. The time difference makes it very difficult to correspond with them quickly.
