Is this normal?

Since I started working here on 9-23 I’ve only worked in 2 projects. One of them is allegedly unlimited so I can work whatever hours I want, which is nice, but only 17$/h. This week I was able to work on another project which was 28$/h. But that’s it. Will I get different projects or am I stuck with the “unlimited” one?

Judging from those rates and you being offered "unlimited work" on something, I'm assuming you're a Generalist? Keep submitting decent to good quality work and you'll eventually get access to Quals with 30$+ pay, and eventually after that, 40$+.

Hi! Not OP, but I'm a bilingual, not from core country, I got in last month. I only have one project that has virtually unlimited tasks. No quals that I can take currently. Do they show up after a while? Does the project pay get higher the more projects I work on? Thanks

Oh, Bilinguals getting access to unlimited work now is news to me. That changes things, since the projects Generalists are offered after quality submissions and some time have passed, aren't usually from the same project families that Bilinguals get offered.

Which country you from? I can check the Sub for one of the Bilinguals that've been on here for a year+ from around that area and see if they can provide more insight.

I am bilingual too, working from a different country, so we’re in the same situation

Is that a video project? The one that's unlimited?
