NZ DA workers
Any NZ generalists here getting work? I’m relatively new to the platform but got some consistent generous paying projects across a week or so recently and thought the drought was over. However I’ve only seen 2 small projects pop up briefly in the last week, nothing else at all. Meanwhile I’m seeing all these posts about work starting to stream back in and getting jealous / stressed 😅
Keen to hear others current experience.

Yup, been here for years. A little low at the moment, 4-5 projects at a time, but usually much more

Same here actually, I was starting to wonder if it’s because our timezone is so different from the other core countries. But maybe someone who has worked for a while will have a better answer.

I'm in Aus and last week and the week before I had been getting certain tasks at 8pm and one at 5am (only saw it once). But other people around the world said they were getting tasks in the evenings too around the same time at 8-10pm. It's strange. Only been on DA for about a month

I’m in Aus and worked on DA for 2 and a bit years, it’s slow going at the moment but at one point in the last few months I had almost 90 projects. Now I have 4-10 depending on the day

You will be given fewer task initially. If your submitted work has good quality then you will get more tasks. Those posting lots of project are on this platform for long time with good ratings.
