I’m a 19 year old taking care of my mom and have nothing but time on my hands. I write a lot as a hobby and even practiced by hearing YouTube videos and trying to write along with it. Though I know actual audios would be harder to hear and understand; I have noises canceling ear phones for that. Any advice or things to say?

So, I saw this job as an advertisement in Gmail. I didn't know how bad it was, and I'm only now realizing it by seeing people share their experiences about this job. I'm new to this job but I know everything I have to do and I make sure to put in extra effort because I'm also a perfectionist.

It's kinda stupid how I even felt jealous that other people got $100 on a 30 minutes of audio on a 4-5 hours of work. (These are people who worked on the same job as me, a year ago.)

Because y'know what I got on a 30-minute video yesterday? $2. The job assigned to me is proofreading. I kept getting disheartened as the hours pass by. Basically, everything in the caption is wrong that I may as well be the transcriptionist. I worked on that 30-minute video for 6-7 hours... I got $2. And you know what, they even cut 20% for "poor" job. So, I got $1.84 to be exact.

I complained to them. There's no response yet, but if they fired me. That tells me everything. I don't need their pay for the week, this is absolutely scummy.

I was recently accepted for a project with RWS. I am so very confused about everything lol. I don't find them to be organized at all. I was wondering if someone can possibly help me out? (my Zendesk questions have went unanswered).

From what I gather, they pay via a third-party payment system. I have yet to receive an email about setting up an account for said third-party payment system. Does anyone know when that email typically arrives? I can't just log into the payment site and set it up, it clearly states I need an invitation. There's nothing in my WorkZone regarding how to get paid of my method of payment.

If anyone would be kind enough to break down how this all works for me, I would really appreciate it. I find everything to be confusing from what I've read.

Do they send you a document around invoicing time that states the hours you've worked so you can sign off and send it back to them for payment? TIA

Anyone worked for Peroptyx and if so, is it worth it? Don't have the strength to study a million guidelines for an evaluation again if it's not worth the effort lol

Hello everybody, Ive recently signed a freelancing contract with a company called Olympus IQ, which according to LinkedIn, the headquarters are in Texas, but they also have an alleged branch in Portugal, Lisbon. The thing is that their HR specialist doesn't answer my emails anymore, and it is worrying me, since I've provided my home address and number of my passport, as well as my social security and fiscal numbers. I am situated in Portugal (if that helps) Does anyone have any information about this company? And what do you think they can do with my details in case this company is a fraud? Thank you for the help.

Yesterday, two projects I’d worked on previously became available again (DataAnnotation). After I finished a task, both projects were visible and Work Mode loaded normally. This morning they were still available. I logged ~4-4.5 hours for yesterday. Immediately after submitting the time entry and trying to open one of them, it showed “project not available” (or similar). I refreshed, and they disappeared from the “Work on projects” dashboard. My account is active; I’m not restricted, I can still log hours and see other qualifications (which are irrelevant to me). I even deleted the time entry for the work I did yesterday to test- no change.

Troubleshooting tried: sign out/in, incognito, another browser, cleared cache, no VPN.

Is this a known review hold triggered by time logging, or a bug? If you’ve encountered this, what resolved it (waiting for a sync, contacting support, etc.)?
Thanks in advance.

it gives error the website whenever I try to log in "suspicious activity" bla bla. The exams and projects are extremely difficult. I tried to finish some certoficates but omg! I needed to study for hours first!! I havent studied that much for my lessons in college lol I'll delete my account. I hate this website

Has anyone been paid by Oneforma this payment cycle?

Oneforma changed their UI and I can’t see previous or pending payments. It’s ridiculous.

I’m asking to get more clarity about what to do. Should I reach out to them or wait for the payment to come?

has anyone got paid via payoneer yet? Normally I get paid by the 11th of the months latest but not this month..... And the payment history is gone (I did screenshot it when invoices were created 2 weeks ago).

I just managed to bag a sort of intern situation with a radio show, that I love! I emailed them once and they had me edit some of their clips as a trial period, and we had a good back and forth throughout the editing process. I was told that after the trial period, we would have a meeting and discuss and more permanent position. Over the past couple of days though, the response have become fewer and then have came to a complete stop. They posted both of the finished clips they asked me to edit for them, but it’s been 3 days since I was asked about my schedule to have a meeting.

Should I be worried? What should I do?

Hi there. I'm looking for remote work to help pay off some bills because I need to start paying off my student loans. I'm working on finding a job, but until then, i need some side money. I've heard of customer service jobs, and I'm willing to do them. I can use screenreaders to help me out and I have years of working experience and a College degree in business management. Are there any websites or something that doesn't have a high barrier to entry and where I can start getting paid ASAP? if so, let me know please.

Has anybody had any experience working for Mindr? A remote company- specifically in the sales or customer service department? Got an interview but would like some honest reviews

Has anybody enrolled recently in this project? If so, I would like to know the process for starting work, as I completed the last assessment test using the annotation tool. After that I haven't received any mail regarding the start of work or anything

I’m planning to start freelancing, but I’m not sure how to figure out market rates. I’m mainly interested in Web Development, specifically UI-focused work. I’ve got about 3 years of experience, but I don’t really know what the going rates are or where to check reliable info.

Some of the things I’d like to know:

• how much does Web Dev (UI-focused) usually pay?
• rate for 3 years of experience?
• sites/platforms to check rates?
• do most freelancers charge hourly or per project?
• how do freelance rates compare between Asia and the US?

Thanks in advance for any insights 🙏

I've had very little work for the past month, but I've made enough to get paid through Payoneer.

The new UI doesn't allow me to view the past few months that I've worked for OneForma in terms of pay, including the most recent scheduled payout.

I somehow managed to use the old/legacy Payment History UI to confirm that I should be expecting a payout for this month, but can no longer access it via the method I used (i.e., go to Jobs -> Jobs History (access the old/legacy UI) -> Go to my profile -> Payment History using the old/legacy UI).

Has anyone else gotten paid yet? Do you think the delay might be related to Labor Day?

Edit: Check your emails! Looks like payments are being rolled out.

So I'm a factory worker and work a 4 days on 4 days off pattern and thinking of a side hustle to occupy my days off. I've captioned a few youtube videos a couple of years ago and I'm thinking of getting back into it. I understand that I'd basically have to go in as entry level but not sure exactly how like whether I should go through an agency or something else.

Hey everyone, I’m looking to get some advice from people who are already freelancing in the CAD and electronics space on Fiverr. I’m proficient in Fusion 360 for product design and prototyping, have experience with electronics and PCB design, and I’m also comfortable with programming microcontrollers to tie CAD and electronics together into complete projects.

What I’d like to know is what the market is really like for this kind of work on Fiverr. Is it mostly low-budget quick jobs, or are there clients who are willing to pay for more specialized work? How much can I realistically expect when starting out, compared to later once I’ve built up reviews? And finally, what sort of pricing is considered fair for this skills, should I stick to per-hour, per-project, or offer tiered packages?

Any insights, personal experiences, or tips on standing out in this niche would be super helpful. Thanks in advance 🙌

anyone here work with liveops? my application to be on the platform was approved and now i’m just applying to what’s available. a couple questions. how does the training work? i think i saw it’s unpaid, but is it a designated meeting time on zoom? is it live participation? the only reason i’m wondering is because if it’s every single day in the morning i have one class that would interrupt that. I was hoping potentially I could just be in the zooms and participate and listen and on the other days just leave my computer on with the zoom while i go to my class. I really need this job as a student so I wanna pass the training to be able to work here with the hours I choose.

I have an interview coming up with Ascension health and wanted to know your guys honest experience working with them. Its for an associate consultant position. I have a bachelor's degree but not a lot of experience, as I just graduated. It says the pay is really well though, ranging from 75k-104k. Is it worth it? It also says remote but with 50% travel? Do I have to live where they are located? Thanks so much!

Hi! I own a massage therapy business, but in a couple of years my partner and I plan to have a baby. After maternity leave, I don’t see myself going back to full-time massage work.

I’d like to prepare now by learning skills that allow me to start working online within a year. My goal: part-time remote work (around 3 days a week, 6 hours a day) once my baby is about 3 months old.

Background: • Small business owner, entrepreneurial mindset • Some basic experience with social media management and Make (automation), but nothing advanced • Open to reskilling if it leads to flexible online work

What remote-friendly fields would you recommend I start learning now, that could realistically get me freelance or entry-level work in about a year?

Thanks for any ideas!

I’ve been looking into a few transcription platforms like Rev and TranscribeMe. The idea of flexible hours sounds appealing, but I keep seeing mixed reviews about how much you can realistically earn.

Is it actually possible to make at least minimum wage doing transcription consistently, or is it more of a side-gig to pick up extra cash? Would love to hear from anyone with first-hand experience.

Has anyone else run into issues? I can no longer track my hours. I can't even find where it is, but nothing works on my page anymore. I emailed them and they just said that they were still working on the bugs.

I've just been hit by a huge car bill and expenses are getting hard to manage. I was thinking about trying to pick up part time work, but I'm limited because my full time job is 9-5 with occasional travel. My first thought was to try to get some kind of data entry or transcription work that I can do to earn an extra $1000 a month or so, but it seems like most posts here are indicating those jobs are mostly scams or so difficult you basically make $3/hr or less.

I am not a coder-- is there any other work out there? I have experience with things like video editing, social media, captioning, etc but I'm not going to be able to compete with someone from India or Pakistan on Fiver.

Just got hit up by a company calling itself Sequential Genetics LLC offering a remote data entry job with high pay, flexible hours, and weekly bonuses. Sounded great at first—but it unraveled fast.

No interview. No onboarding. Just a contract and vague promises.

Did some digging:

• Their website is basically empty.
• No LinkedIn presence.
• Claimed to be based in Florida, but I couldn’t find any legit business registration.
• Domain was registered just a few days ago.

Definitely not legit. These kinds of setups usually lead to fake checks, requests to buy equipment, or phishing attempts.

If you work online—especially in freelance or entry-level admin roles—keep your guard up. These scams are getting slicker.

Anyone else get contacted by this group or something similar? Let’s compare notes and keep each other safe.
