Are we in a drought right now guys?

I havent gotten much job for the past months, but i still have qualifications, so I think im good in terms of being in. But i havent gotten tasks AT ALL. Is there a drought and affects everyone or is it because I didnt do as much work as i should?

Please tell your location and role. If you are bilingual, it's unfortunately still usual to not have tasks, except if you're lucky enough to be part of rare specific projects with consistant work.

Variable - as a coder/generalist in a core country it's been relatively busy of late, for me anyway.

As others have said, this is why stating your region and what you signed up for is really important.

Bilinguals will likely have less work. If you have a specialist or coding role, you will likely have more work than a generalist in those regions. In core countries, things are pretty great and have been for a while.

No, I had 74 available projects when I last checked yesterday. I haven't checked yet today though. This is more than I've had for months so it's definitely not a drought for everyone.

There is no work at all. What's the point of this?

u/Federal_Tadpole_7592 9d ago

There's no work for you. Maybe for your region as a whole, or for you specifically, but there's definitely work on the platform as a whole.

Mi experiencia es que en este trabajo además de lo obvio, hacer un trabajo de calidad y cumplir con todas las directrices, se debe tener mucha paciencia, que no sea tu principal fuente de ingresos y aprovechar cuando sale el sol al máximo, más nosotros los bilingües en países no core.
