How to apply to a job, pass any required assessments, and track where your application stands.
When you find a job you want, you apply to it. Some jobs approve you instantly; others review your application or ask you to pass a short assessment first. This page walks through the whole path from applying to being cleared to record.
We’ll confirm your personal info and device specs. You must have completed your personal profile first — applications are blocked until it’s done.

Some jobs require extra steps as part of applying — for example attaching a resume or completing one or more assessments (covered below). The application flow guides you through whatever a given job needs.
An assessment is a short qualification test that proves you can produce the kind of recording a job needs — think of it as a practice round. You record (or answer) exactly what the real work requires, and we check it meets the bar. Not every job has one, but when a job requires an assessment you must pass it before your work is cleared.Find them under Assessments in the sidebar.

Submit
Submit when you’re done.
Your assessment status (see table below) portrays the current state of your application’s assessment submission. Some are scored automatically by our quality checks; others are reviewed by a person. If you fail or are asked to revise, read the reviewer feedback on the assessment page — it tells you exactly what to fix. You may be able to re-take it, though some assessments cap the number of attempts, so treat each one seriously.
Status
What it means
Not started
You have an assessment ready to begin for a job application.
Started
You’ve begun the assessment but haven’t submitted it.
Submitted
Submitted and waiting for review.
Pass
You met the required passing criteria. You are approved for the job.
Failed
Review the feedback on the assessment page and, if another attempt is available, address the issues before retaking it.
Revision Requested
Read the reviewer feedback carefully, make the requested improvements, and resubmit if allowed.
Treat the assessment exactly like real work: same device, same lighting, same care. Passing it once can qualify you for a whole category of jobs (see type qualifications below).
Being approved means you’re eligible — but before you can record you need an offer on a specific project, and accepting it creates a contract (your agreement to do the work). Every offer spells out the specifics: the work, the pay, any quota or target, and a deadline. There are two ways an offer reaches you:
Open projects — you can request an offer yourself from the project page. As long as you’re eligible (for example, in an allowed region) it’s created right away, ready for you to accept.
Invited or assigned work — our team sends you a formal offer when there’s specific work to assign. These aren’t generated the moment you’re approved; you’re notified when one arrives.
Either way, the offer shows up alongside the relevant project in your account. Review the terms, then Accept to proceed (this creates the contract) or Decline if it’s not for you. The pay and terms are locked in at the time the offer is sent, so they won’t change under you.
Accept offers you intend to act on. Declining is fine — but accepting and then never submitting work isn’t great for your standing on the platform.
My Applications lists everything you’ve applied to, filterable by status. Click any application to see where it stands, the answers you submitted, a Withdraw option (while it’s still draft or pending), and — if approved — a prompt to complete any required documents before you start.
Many jobs share a type (e.g. “screen recording”). Once you’ve been qualified for a job type, you generally don’t have to re-qualify for other jobs of that same type — you can apply to them directly and start sooner. This is why passing your first assessment for a type is worth the effort.
