New to MTurk and busy getting qualifications from this page: https://turkerview.com/qualifeye/?f...Kzxuqi0xCjRg8TSOQL0pxH4n7oX-AR83qGwXjzgD1FaTw

The only problem is that every time I follow a link from a test to Speechpad I get this message:

Due to the overwhelming interest in becoming a part of our worker pool, we are only able to consider applicants who have verifiable transcription experience. At this time, all positions have been filled. You may send your resume, driver's license or govt/state- issued ID and valid phone number to worker@speechpad.com in case we have openings throughout the year. Please keep in mind that only applicants with verifiable experience and the proper documentation will be considered.

Does this mean that I can't take these tests? Because most of the tests on that QualifEye link require you to go to Speechpad.

 

I don't have any experience with Speechpad, but it looks like they set the qual link up to go to their website(didn't know that was a possibility, but it makes some sense). So it looks like you'll have to go through their process. Looks legitimate so I wouldn't worry about it if you have verifiable transcription experience.

If you're looking for transcription work Crowdsurf usually has stuff up. It's fairly underpaid for the work, but might be worth it to you. They post on Mturk sometimes, but you're way better off going through their platform where they pay bonuses and have a slightly better rate. http://crowdsurfwork.com/

I haven't done anything through them in a while, but they pay through work market and I never had any problems getting paid when I did.

 

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I don't have verifiable experience, but I've applied to Take Note, so hopefully they'll accept me. I'll give Crowdsurf a look. Thanks!
