I’m imagining applications will be looked at and processed as usual as business will have to continue. However what would I know??!!! If I ever get accepted onto anything by either company or the merger of the two, I’ll show my behind in Harrods!!!!

Hi guys does anyone have information on how long it takes for Appen to get back to you after you have applied for a job. I signed up ages ago and have applied for a couple of jobs, but have yet to hear back, and the job application just says submitted. This is over 2 months now. Any feedback is much appreciated. Or maybe an alternative.

I am in the application process with them at the moment. I first applied a few weeks ago and it was about a week later when I was invited to the pre screen test. I did that a few days ago and now I am waiting to hear about some work. I think it varies for each person so it is difficult to say how soon they will get in touch with you. I have been wondering the same.

Anyone else got an invite to do this?
Hello Jonathan,

You have been invited to participate in a short-term task in which, you will be presented with common search queries. You will assess each query and decide whether it should be considered transactional; where the user intends to complete a transaction such as making a purchase or non-transactional; where there is no intent to purchase.

Important
Consultants may work a maximum of 8 hours per day on this task, and a maximum of 30 hours per week on all Appen projects combined. Please take this into consideration if you are already working on another project, as long as you stay within 30 hours per week, you are eligible to participate in this task.

I've just received this:
Hello,

You recently registered your interest in working on the Leapforce at Home platform. At this time, we would like to invite you to visit our sister-company, Appen, to participate in an urgent priority project. This project is time sensitive and requires immediate participation.

You can register for this project on the Appen platform by visiting: https://go.appen.com/users/sign_up?referred_by=501144&project_id=3286

We appreciate your participation and look forward to working with you.


I've looked at the contract and it sounds quite scary am I over thinking it and should just sign it and get started?

Sorry Jon I had just posted a separate message to you regarding this I hadn't seen this post

Just opened exactly the same email. Considering they haven't even acknowledged my application yet I was surprised but not going to turn down the opportunity. Fingers crossed it means I have my foot in the door now!

I got the same email but the link only took me to acknowledge a document which doesn't have the name of the project on it so not sure what it's for but something is pending so I guess I'll just wait and see. Fingers crossed.

Maybe just me but I wondered if the task itself is some kind of exam, give it to all of us and pick out the people they want from that? Unless they normal have tasks that only run for a day?

It’s only one days work, up to 8 hours, so I’m hoping there won’t be an exam or the the time taken to do that makes it a bit pointless! I wonder if it’s based on the screening we’ve already done??

Hello,
I just woner if anybody is working on SEO top trasaction queries project? I just received a email yesterday, loged in and acknowldged, gave them my payment details and now i begin to work. Because this is the first time i am working with Appen so i don't know how they count my hours working on this project. Also in the email they said the project will last approximately 1 day (with maximum 8hours/day) but in statement of work they said it could be 6 months. I am confused.

My appen global login says I'm assigned to 4 projects. I can't login to any other part of appen as the username isn't valid anywhere else and when i create a support ticket the answer is sent to appen online which i can't access as not registered to that part.. nightmare

So can you actually complete work from the appen global part? I can see two task which says speach collection and this new raven seo is pending.
