Hey, I was doing the one hour per day Social Media job and I was canned with no notice because of the client's internal metrics. I wrote back with questions and they said it had nothing to do with the comments on the weekly auditing or how many days per week I worked. The reason is a secret. So it is possible to get a dreaded email from Appen too.

I feel that day will come someday, just look how far we've come in 5-10 years. In the meantime, Leapforce has a very similar one hour a day Facebook project of your interested. I think you have to be hired for a bigger project to enroll in it, but it could be worth a shot! |

Could I please ask a question of someone who has taken the Appen test. I took the 3 part test a week ago and have not heard back. When I finished the test the page just said completed for each of the 3 parts but there was not a score. On top of the page it said if I passed I would hear back in 3 days. If you failed the test does Appen contact you and let you know or just move on to the next person and assume you know you failed. Thank you for any responses.

I took it last weekend and have yet to hear anything. Maybe they're just really busy right now. |

Hi, I took the test around the same time you both did, I was wondering have either one of you heard back yet? |

I still have not heard back. I have clicked the link I used to take the test and I am still in the system. I hope that is a good sign.

I emailed them yesterday and got a reply today. I passed the test but they have no projects. I was told I would get an email when things become available.

Which email did you use to contact them if you don't mind me asking. I replied to the original project manager email. I don't know if they have more then one manager but if you click reply they responded quickly for being half way around the world. |

Hello everyone i am new to the forum and just want to share my experience with appen.I started with them last year on the 20hr week social media at first it was a little challenging to have right comments but once i got the hang of it i liked it.I t was a good side money and i could not believe they where paying me to do this lol.I was let go this year due to my contract ending.I was a little bummed about that was hoping to stay on it i love the extra money.Only thing i did not like was when you had a issue it takes so long to hear back so i hope they can get better with that.I just got back on the 1hr/day ads project i like it wish i had more hours though.Also all of a sudden i been getting invited to do the voice data collection last two weeks not much as far as pay but every little bit helps.I hope i get invited to another project i want more hrs to go along with the project i currently on.Does anyone know if i am able to apply with issoftstone?I want to apply but do not want to jeopordize my job with appen.Overall i like the job pretty easy once you get the hang of it and when you figure out how they want the comments only knock on them is the troubleshooting department in getting back to you.

I have a crowdsourcing account with Appen, I have also done 2 voice data collection projects for them. I have not worked the crowdsourcing for them in over a year. I have taken and passed the web search test but there is no opening for it.
