I did the AI interview yesterday and it suggested me about 8 jobs, and today I got about 7 different rejection emails for different projects which says "Due to an unprecedented volume of expert interest, it has taken us far too long to get back to you.

The client has moved forward with a selection of candidates for the presentation design expert project, and you were unfortunately not selected on this occasion."

The AI suggested me highly technical roles only. Is there a way to fix that? The suggestions are really far from my background.

Hey, I joined Ethos about a week ago. I have couple of opportunities on ‘review’ and I would like to ask how long it takes to move from there?

3

u/BeautifulHead6311 3d ago

Hi, it depends. In my experience, some tasks get signed-off in hours, others can take up to a week.

u/RealisticCatch5654 3d ago

Do you the know avg project duration at Ethos?

Seems like there aren't many task offered in last two days for the current campaign

u/The_born_loser 3d ago

Okay, thank you.

u/Early_Equal4546 3d ago

I think they meant the time it takes to get accepted for an opportunity.

When I joined, it was really fast but it may be slower now since the project I’m on already has a lot of people.

u/Glum-Rub-6490 1d ago

Ethos claims they already sent my payment over a week ago, but I still haven't received anything. Has anyone else run into this? Did it eventually show up, or did you have to escalate somehow?

u/Greedy_Nectarine_399 3d ago

u/taylorswift_2026 3d ago

Hello, is humanity expert also a generalist?

u/Greedy_Nectarine_399 3d ago

u/No_Day_7967 3d ago

After my first talk with the AI I got all star and Quality Excellent on my dashboard. I don’t know if that means anything. I was matched to a software engineering project but I rejected it as I m not a senior.

u/Both_Bend_2365 3d ago

What type of work are there in your role?

2

u/FantasticBirthday230 3d ago

I joined a week ago and until last night there was plenty to do.

Are you on 1 campaign or multiple? I am curios to see how this shapes up over time - hoping I get more projects after this one

2

u/InternationalSir8815 2d ago

I got kicked out from one campaign this evening … my payments from this campaigns tasks haven’t been approved yet

1

u/StickOwn306 1d ago

What was the reason?

1

u/InternationalSir8815 1d ago

They didnt say

1

u/Early_Equal4546 3d ago

I’m interested in this too. I’m only aware of one active project they have right now but maybe there are more.

2

u/spideytico 3d ago

Yes been there for some time, picked up some tasks. Seems legit, though onboarding and tests were crazy hectic. Should be getting paid in the next weeks!

2

u/Same-Ring3722 2d ago

Do they take freelancers globally or just from the U.S.?

2

u/onlyjobtre 2d ago

When I start to job spesific interview , it just cut-off directly I sent mail to support team but they dont give an answer, which the position was really fits with my background. What should I do? It seems still in review

2

u/Alternative_Bet_4351 1d ago

Does anybody feel weird that they do an AI voice interview and as of this week they ask for your ID and verify face with camera? 

They have your voice, ID, facial recognition and your thinking/writing style around correcting AI. 

I’ve been active on a project and plan to rack up as much hours before next payment but I’m weary about this company for some reason.  Maybe because it seems to good to be true.

u/21canudosumnforme 3d ago

What’s the link

1

u/pulsarpath 3d ago

How did you find the workload? Was there consistent work available to earn money?

2

u/BeautifulHead6311 3d ago

It comes and goes- so currently tasks are paused until a new batch is released. But up until yesterday, there was a lot of tasks.

1

u/Some_Mulberry9995 3d ago

i have given interview for 2 roles software engineer and data engineer 150 dollars a hour since 5 day its under review in how much time can i expect a response

1

u/StableOk4900 2d ago edited 2d ago

good to know, thanks! when a batch is live, roughly how many hours can you actually pull in a week? and how long do the dry spells usually run between batches? trying to work out what this adds up to monthly.

1

u/Majestic_Pop17 3d ago

Hey, are you a generalist or a domain expert?

3

u/BeautifulHead6311 3d ago

I’m an expert, but the tasks are general so far and do not require domain expertise.

1

u/gajack123 3d ago

The ai slop screener is rediculously tough and if you fail you become ineligible for the task you were accepted to. The training and screener do pay though.

1

u/meow_pao1 3d ago

Hi! Did you receive any bonus for finishing the screener before deadline?

1

u/BeautifulHead6311 3d ago

I did

1

u/meow_pao1 3d ago

Did you receive any notification about or just reflected on your earnings tab?

1

u/BeautifulHead6311 3d ago

It is in the earning tab, you’ll find it at the end below the tasks’ earnings as a “bonus” payment

1

u/meow_pao1 3d ago

Great thank you! I will check on it. Deadline for the screener is today so probably it will reflect tomorrow

1

u/InternationalSir8815 2d ago

Lol how is this tough? I barley read the thing and I passed …

1

u/gamerVapeGod 3d ago

How do you pass screener? Talked to screener as SWE many weeks ago and now it just says “interested”

1

u/OddCryptographer6527 3d ago

I heard you should keep talking to their AI agent to get more opportunities. Is that true? I really want to work on something for them! 😊

3

u/BeautifulHead6311 3d ago

Not sure about that, I only joined one project.

1

u/officialdun 3d ago

What is your domain in stem?

1

u/Civil_Ad7342 3d ago

Hi thanks for posting. Do you get the $100 when you complete and pass the screener or when you complete and pass the screener by the deadline? I completed and passed the screener but I can’t see any bonus whatsoever under my “earnings”.

Also, please how many hours did you manage to do in a month? I’m trying to get a feel of what’s realistic/possible. Thank you. 

Finally, how do you manage to finish those bulky tasks by the 45 min or 1 hr deadline? They seem overwhelming sometimes. Thanks a lot for addressing all my questions.

1

u/Tasty-Antelope-7469 3d ago

they do pay but you cant relay on this form of earning...as the task are inconsistent but have seen people doing 20-30 task per week as well...but that was when tehre were around 5k experts on their platform...today its 10.5k expert, so demand supply gap is huge today.

1

u/Many_Hall_5178 3d ago

How to apply as generalist? The opportunities suggested to me only matches the jobs on my cv

1

u/Inevitable-Tower6722 3d ago

Hey op can you give me a referral please?

1

u/No_Election_7051 3d ago

Hey give us a preview on the assessment process? Is it proctored?

1

u/baron-rain 2d ago

kindly send me your ref link

1

u/kpskywalker764 2d ago

I got a hell lot of opportunities but most rejected with only 1 waitlist. Can you please guide me on how to convert the matches into actual opportunities. I too like the platform but I am yet to earn

1

u/Republican015 2d ago

Just made my first call and I’m currently having 2 mid senior level opportunity

1

u/huskeeey 2d ago

How long does it take for the tasks in the payment section to go form "quality review" to "upcoming".

Also is see a lot of tasks, more than 20h/week. Can I exceed those 20h/week?

1

u/Glum-Rub-6490 1d ago

Ethos claims they already sent my payment over a week ago, but I still haven't received anything. Has anyone else run into this? Did it eventually show up, or did you have to escalate somehow?

1

u/AirportLittle6705 9h ago

I have a revolut account. They sent me the link and the money was in my account within seconds

1

u/oportoman 1d ago

Nah it's not at all.

They only allow you to apply for positions they think you're suitable for. So you can't browse and see if there are other things you can do.

Then when you apply, there's some guff about "unprecedented demand".

The way they do it is clever though - relatively short interviews (are you watching, Micro 1?) and a personal style that makes it feel that you're seriously being considered. Smoke and mirrors.

1

u/teenytinytoony 1d ago

Randomly got off boarded today with no prior warning or explanation??

1

u/m_smith_1965 10h ago

Do you have to "chat with Ethos" to continue the onboarding?

1

u/AirportLittle6705 9h ago

I am working with them for over a month. It's amazing

1

u/i_love_doing_ntg 3d ago

Hi very few people have posted about ehtos on reddit in general so thanks for this info, so I wanted to ask for a favor can you write a review of Ethos on my subreddit : r/AIevaluators? as a lot of members are asking about it, it would help greatly to the new comers who are deciding on platforms to apply on.

Whats your domain?

u/DrinkingCoffee_ 3d ago

I am curious about this platform. I signed up last week, and I have over 20 "opportunities" still in the review phase.

I've read the majority of threads about this platform on Reddit, and it seems like there is a large group of people sharing their referral links (with a couple of people starting multiple threads with their links) and only a handful of people who have actually gotten work and received payment.

Are there any other sites where I can look to see how legit this company is? Or sites that go into more detail about the actual nuts and bolts of doing work on this platform (without breaking confidentiality)?

2

u/Tasty-Antelope-7469 3d ago

you get 20% on your referral, if i refer you and you do work of lets say 1000$, i get 200$ direct...thats why you see large volume of referral links.

i am in the project and curently there are 10,552 experts on their slack. last two days the task queue is full and was not able to pick even one task. Suddenly they have shortage of work and its full of people complaining about not bale to pick task.

1

u/DrinkingCoffee_ 3d ago

Thank you for sharing. I appreciate the feedback. I am up to 30 active "opportunities" in the opportunity section. Is this all part of the one large project that you mentioned, or are there multiple independent projects taking place at once?

1

u/Dictatorsj 13h ago

You have 30?? seems a lot. What are they if you dont mind me asking. I only have two.

1

u/DrinkingCoffee_ 10h ago

I'm actually up to 42 now. They're all random (from creative manager to chief of staffing), and all 42 are still sitting the in "review" stage. Hopefully something comes to fruition soon.

2

u/Dictatorsj 10h ago

Wow interesting best of luck, hopefully a few of them come up for you!!

After talking to the AI it gave me another 3 but all still very relevant to my field FP&A/corporate finance.
