Help! I am really confused. I have had a notice from Appen that I have qualified for project Nyasa, and that it is a one time only survey, however they don't appear to have sent me the link to the said survey, which means I am unable to work the job that they have given me. Anyone else have a problem or am I missing something?

Also I qualified for a project called Fletcher, and was then informed that they are now not taking anyone with English accents, so I don't quite see how I qualified for that!

On both of these I have queried more than once and have had no response, so anyone else got any bright ideas?

It's frustrating as it's telling me I can earn money with one hand and then taking it away with the other, and not getting any support either. Is this normal for them?

Thanks

I sometimes have the same things happen to me - what I tended to do was wait and sometimes link for surveys would appear on the project page. Sometimes they never appeared or went to closed as they had enough people. Sorry I can't be much help.

Appen bringing the Ops!

Hi,

Just want to share this great opportunity to you. We have recently moved to a new system called Appen Connect. Appen is currently conducting a study to understand how we can improve the quality of day-to-day interactions with home smart speakers, such as Amazon Echo and Google Home. As part of these efforts, we are currently looking for participants to share the transcripts of their voice commands to this type of home smart speakers.

We are looking for people who regularly use voice assistants through their home smart speakers. Participants of this study are required to be located in the following countries and use the corresponding language for their smart speaker:

United States - English
United Kingdom - English
Germany - German
India - English
Japan - Japanese

This will be an express micropayment project, where PM will submit custom payments.

We look forward to receiving your help on the project.

Oooh I have just had this email. Whilst currently plodding through the Accented English Project, again. Apparently I can do it up to 4 times for $200 or until I fall asleep from boredom!

This one did not take long. But still waiting for payment. Completed about three weeks ago.

Had an email this morning inviting me to apply for Appen Connect - apparently I was referred by one of their project managers, which is a bit strange as I usually abort projects due to the unacceptable pay!

Anyway, I have been accepted for Sankuru - does anyone do this? It appears to be another very low-paid task, but I am hoping that you can bomb through it and earn an acceptable hourly rate?

I had this same email - there's a quick test when you log in and I got accepted immediately after doing it

It seems to be using a third party company called Figure8 who the work will come through (it loads into your Appen dashboard still)

No work has appeared yet though

Are you asking 'What is a rater' on appen?
I mean what is it? rater means nothing to me hun. I do not understand what any of the four titles mean even lol. They do not at all explain what jobs are under each to me lol

HI all,

I just got an email today saying I got accepted into the Nile project. It is on my project list now.
Though when I click on the rating page, it just goes to my facebook page and not the rating page.
And I haven't got any information on pay and payment method and if there is an exam to take? . When will this information come through?? Thanks

From memory, before you are accepted to the Nile project you get asked for your Facebook profile URL. You need at least 50 friends on this Facebook profile. Appen checks this and nothing else about your profile.

more often that not they tend to be surveys or 'Listen to xxx number of phrases and key in what you think the person is saying / you say the phrase yourself'

If you want Web Search Evaluator work just mock up a CV and enter one
whats a web search evaluator?

Is anyone doing the 'Ramsey' project? It's $0.37 per task...just wondering how many you get done in an hour? Minimum of 10 hours per week and unlike when I used to rate for them you can do these hours whenever you want (not 1 hour per day) which suits me a lot better.
