0:00Let's get right into it. Before
0:01applying, prepare a laptop, reliable
0:03internet connection, professional email
0:05address, government issued ID, and an
0:07updated resume. Some projects also
0:09require a smartphone, specific software,
0:11or professional qualifications. And some
0:13of these websites have specific location
0:15restrictions, so be sure to confirm them
0:17before you proceed. If you already have
0:19a resume, you can use ChatGPT or Claude
0:21to improve it. Upload your existing CV
0:23alongside a job description and ask the
0:25AI to tailor your experience, highlight
0:27relevant skills, and improve your
0:29descriptions. Just make sure it doesn't
0:31invent qualifications or experience. And
0:33this is only part one. In our next
0:35video, we'll introduce 10 more platforms
0:37worth checking out. Also, the links to
0:38the website mentioned are in the
0:39description box. Be sure to check them
0:41out. Now, let's get to the websites.
0:43Number 10, Micor. Micor is one of the
0:45most interesting platforms on this list
0:47because something many people don't
0:48realize is that Micor isn't exclusively
0:50for highly qualified professionals. Yes,
0:52it has opportunities for doctors,
0:54lawyers, engineers, financial analysts,
0:56and other specialists. But it also
0:58advertises projects for general
0:59contributors. For example, one of its
1:01search generalist opportunities
1:03advertises $30 to $40 per hour. What
1:05would you actually do? You'd receive
1:07search queries, examine the results,
1:09decide whether they genuinely answer the
1:10question, and leave short explanations.
1:13You don't need to be a professional
1:14researcher to understand whether a
1:16search result about basketball actually
1:17answers a basketball question. You do,
1:19however, need good written English,
1:21attention to detail, and the ability to
1:23make sensible judgments. Another
1:25interesting listing is AI Chat
1:26Generalist, which advertises $30 per
1:29hour. Here, you interact with an AI
1:31assistant using realistic everyday
1:32requests, guide it through a task,
1:34identify mistakes, and evaluate the
1:36final response. The listing specifies no
1:39minimum years of experience. Micor also
1:41has a generalist expert talent pool that
1:43doesn't require a particular
1:44professional credential. It looks for
1:46careful reasoning, clear writing, and
1:47good judgment. Its listed generalist
1:49contracts have typically paid $40 to $70
1:51per hour, depending on the project. And
1:53that's not everything. Some projects
1:55involve collecting research data, while
1:56others require contributors to work with
1:58particular software and submit
2:00screenshots. Those equipment specific
2:01jobs have their own requirements, so
2:03don't assume every screenshot task is
2:05open to everyone. To apply, visit
2:07work.mercor.com,
2:08create an account, and explore the
2:10available opportunities. Depending on
2:11the listing, you may submit your resume,
2:13complete a background survey, attend an
2:15AI interview, or take an assessment.
2:17Some generalist applications involve an
2:18approximately 20-minute AI interview.
2:20Once approved, you may be added to a
2:22talent pool and contacted when a
2:23suitable project becomes available.
2:25Mercor pays weekly through supported
2:27payment providers including Stripe and
2:28Wise. The important thing is to explore
2:30the actual listings rather than assume
2:32you need a medical degree to
2:33participate. Number nine, Mindrift. This
2:35one is particularly interesting because
2:37Mindrift has created something called
2:39all access tasks.
2:40And the name is quite appropriate.
2:42Unlike specialist AI training projects
2:44that require a medical degree,
2:45professional certification, or years of
2:47experience, these tasks are open to
2:49people without specific educational
2:51qualifications, previous experience, or
2:53professional expertise. You could be
2:55asked to review AI generated content,
2:57compare responses, evaluate information,
3:00annotate data, or complete other
3:02straightforward tasks using instructions
3:03provided by the platform. But here's
3:05something even more interesting.
3:07Mindrift is advertising a video data
3:09collection project that pays
3:10approximately $5 to $15 per hour.
3:12Contributors are asked to record
3:14everyday and work-related activities
3:16using a phone or camera. No special
3:18professional skills are required for
3:19this particular project. It's a good
3:21example of how AI companies sometimes
3:23need ordinary human activities and
3:25real-world data to improve their
3:26systems. To get started, visit
3:28mindrift.ai, register with your basic
3:30information, and explore the available
3:32tasks on your dashboard. For all access
3:34tasks, you don't need to submit a
3:36professional CV before getting started.
3:38You complete the required onboarding and
3:40follow the instructions for each task.
3:41Specialized projects are different.
3:43Those may require an updated CV,
3:45assessments, and identity verification.
3:47Payments are made for completed and
3:48accepted tasks with rates displayed
3:50before you start. Mindrift currently
3:52processes payments every two weeks
3:54through supported payment providers
3:55including Payoneer and Tipalti. One
3:57thing to remember, the video recording
3:58project is advertised as launching soon,
4:00so check its actual availability making
4:02plans around it. Number eight, Outlier
4:05AI. If you've ever wondered how
4:06companies teach AI to distinguish
4:08between a good answer and a terrible
4:09one, Outlier is worth exploring.
4:11Outlier, operated by Scale AI, connects
4:14contributors with companies developing
4:15artificial intelligence systems. The
4:17interesting thing is the variety of
4:18projects. You might be asked to compare
4:20two AI-generated answers, identify
4:22factual mistakes, evaluate images, judge
4:25AI-generated videos, assess audio and
4:27text, or test how well a model follows
4:29instructions. Some of these assignments
4:30require specialist knowledge, while
4:32others are more general. For example,
4:34its current listings include general AI
4:36evaluation opportunities advertising up
4:38to $18 per hour, image and video
4:40evaluation opportunities advertising
4:42similar rates, and coding opportunities
4:43advertising up to $30 per hour. These
4:46are advertised rates, not guaranteed
4:48earnings. To apply, visit outlier yai,
4:51create your profile, select your skills,
4:53upload your resume, and complete the
4:54identity verification and relevant
4:56assessments. You'll generally need a
4:57government-issued ID, a phone number
4:59from your country of residence, and a
5:00LinkedIn profile showing your education
5:02and experience. Specific projects may
5:04request additional qualifications.
5:06Outlier operates in multiple countries,
5:08but it has a published list of supported
5:09locations. Payments are made through
5:11supported methods, including PayPal and
5:13AirTM, depending on location. Projects
5:15can end when client requirements change,
5:17so don't mistake joining the platform
5:18for receiving a permanent job. Number
5:20seven, data annotation. Here's another
5:22platform that has attracted attention
5:24because of its advertised earning
5:25potential. Data annotation pays
5:27contributors to evaluate chatbot
5:29responses, compare AI-generated answers,
5:31test image generation systems, and
5:33complete other AI training assignments.
5:35And no, you don't need to know how to
5:36code for every project. Its specialist
5:38opportunities currently advertise
5:40approximately $25 to $50 per hour.
5:42Coding and specialist STEM projects can
5:44advertise substantially higher rates,
5:45but those require relevant technical or
5:47academic expertise. For specialist work,
5:49data annotation expects a bachelor's
5:51degree or equivalent real-world
5:53experience alongside strong writing and
5:55critical thinking skills. To apply,
5:57visit dataannotation.tech,
5:59create an account, select the
6:00qualification track that matches your
6:01abilities, and complete the starter
6:03assessment. Please take this seriously.
6:05The platform says applicants only get
6:07one attempt, so rushing through it is a
6:09particularly bad idea. If accepted,
6:11you'll receive access to suitable
6:12projects. Payments are processed through
6:13PayPal and you can request withdrawals
6:15when eligible. One important warning,
6:17completing the assessment doesn't
6:18guarantee acceptance or immediate
6:20project availability. Also check whether
6:21your country is currently supported
6:23before applying. Number six, Telus
6:25Digital AI. This is a particularly
6:27interesting option for people who spend
6:28a lot of time online and are good at
6:30identifying relevant information. Telus
6:32Digital operates a global AI community
6:34with contributors who help collect,
6:36review, translate, and evaluate
6:38information used to improve artificial
6:40intelligence systems. One example is
6:42search engine evaluation. Imagine
6:44searching for a particular restaurant
6:45and receiving results for an unrelated
6:47shopping center. Your job might involve
6:49examining the results and deciding
6:50whether they're relevant to the search.
6:52Other assignments involve reviewing web
6:54pages, images, text, and online content.
6:57Some Telus AI community positions do not
6:59require previous professional
7:00experience. However, they may require
7:02excellent language skills, knowledge of
7:04a particular country's culture, reliable
7:06internet, a computer, and a smartphone.
7:08To apply, visit jobs.telusdigital.com,
7:10select AI community, and search for
7:12opportunities in your country. Submit
7:14your application and updated resume,
7:16then complete the required language,
7:18critical thinking, or role-specific
7:19assessments. Here's something important.
7:21A US-based search evaluation position,
7:23for example, may require several years
7:25of residence in the United States. That
7:27doesn't mean the same requirements apply
7:29to every country or project.
7:30Compensation depends on the project, the
7:32number of available tasks, and your
7:34performance. This is freelance work, not
7:36a guaranteed monthly salary. Before we
7:37continue, if you've discovered an
7:39opportunity worth exploring, give this
7:40video a like and subscribe. We're
7:42bringing you even more websites in the
7:44next episode. Number five, aligner.
7:46Powered by Labelbox, aligner connects
7:48contributors with AI training projects
7:50across areas such as general evaluation,
7:53coding, audio, mathematics, science, and
7:55other specialist disciplines. Your
7:57assignment might involve comparing two
7:59AI-generated responses, identifying
8:01inaccurate information, annotating data,
8:03or evaluating whether a model
8:04understands a particular subject. And
8:06not every listing requires a PhD. Aliner
8:09has advertised general and data labeling
8:10opportunities alongside specialist
8:12positions. Some individual roles have
8:14also advertised opportunities for people
8:16without previous experience. Its website
8:19currently advertises average pay of
8:20around $80 per hour, but don't assume
8:23that's what a new contributor will
8:24automatically earn. Rates depend on the
8:26project and qualifications. To apply,
8:28visit aliner.com, create your account,
8:31complete your profile, and explore the
8:33available positions. You'll generally
8:34need to provide your background
8:35information and demonstrate your skills
8:37through the required screening process.
8:39If you're selected for a project, you'll
8:40receive its instructions, compensation
8:42details, and onboarding requirements.
8:44Aliner advertises flexible remote work
8:46and weekly payouts. However, task
8:48availability and payment arrangements
8:50depend on the project and your location.
8:52Number four, Micro1. Now we're moving
8:54into platforms with a stronger focus on
8:56professional expertise. Micro1 recruits
8:58people across healthcare, engineering,
9:00finance, law, software development, and
9:03creative industries to help improve AI
9:05systems. For example, a software
9:06developer might review AI generated
9:08code, while a healthcare professional
9:10could evaluate medical explanations for
9:12accuracy. Some specialist listings
9:14advertise rates exceeding $100 per hour,
9:16but the requirements can be demanding.
9:18To apply, visit micro1.ai-experts,
9:20browse the opportunities, and submit
9:22your application for a suitable
9:23position. One unusual feature is its AI
9:25interviewer, Zara. Instead of beginning
9:27with a traditional human interview,
9:29applicants can be assessed through a
9:30conversation with an AI system. Zara
9:33evaluates your communication, reasoning,
9:35and relevant professional knowledge. If
9:37successful, you'll proceed through the
9:38required certification and onboarding
9:40stages.
9:41Your actual project rate will depend on
9:43the role you're selected for. Number
9:44three, Meridial. Meridial, powered by
9:46Invisible Technologies, operates an
9:48international network of contributors
9:50working on AI training projects. It
9:52covers more than a dozen areas,
9:54including languages, science,
9:55healthcare, finance, engineering,
9:57coding, business, and creative work.
10:00The interesting thing is that
10:01compensation is established at the
10:02project level. Before accepting an
10:04engagement, you can review the rate and
10:06expected duration. To get started, visit
10:08meridial.ai, select the expert
10:10registration option and complete your
10:12professional profile. You may be asked
10:14to submit your CV, demonstrate your
10:16subject knowledge, complete assessments
10:18and verify your identity. Unlike
10:20platforms offering simple generalist
10:21tasks, meridial is primarily an expert
10:24network. Your professional knowledge and
10:25the complexity of the work influence the
10:27opportunities available. It currently
10:29advertises a network spanning more than
10:31120 countries, although individual
10:33project restrictions still apply. Number
10:35two, SME careers. If you're a doctor,
10:38lawyer, engineer, accountant,
10:40researcher, linguist, or another
10:41professional with specialist knowledge,
10:43SME careers is worth checking out. SME
10:46stands for subject matter expert. These
10:48are people who possess detailed
10:49knowledge of a particular field.
10:51Companies developing AI systems need
10:53people who can identify mistakes that an
10:55ordinary reviewer might miss. For
10:57example, an accountant might evaluate an
10:59AI-generated financial report, while a
11:01doctor could assess whether an
11:02AI-generated clinical explanation is
11:04medically accurate. To apply, visit
11:06sme.careers and create an account.
11:08You'll provide your education,
11:09professional experience, skills,
11:11languages, and expected hourly rate. You
11:13can upload your CV as a PDF or enter
11:15your background manually. LinkedIn is
11:17optional. After creating your profile,
11:19browse the available jobs and apply for
11:21positions that match your
11:22qualifications. Most roles involve an
11:24AI-assisted interview, followed by human
11:26review and onboarding. One useful
11:28feature is that you can filter roles by
11:29country and see the compensation
11:31applicable to your location. This is
11:32primarily a platform for people with
11:34relevant subject expertise, so it isn't
11:36the best starting point if you're
11:37looking for simple entry-level
11:38annotation tasks. Number one, handshake
11:41AI fellowship. Handshake connects
11:43students, graduates, and professionals
11:45with project-based opportunities to help
11:47train and improve large language models.
11:49You might review AI-generated content,
11:51annotate datasets, compare responses, or
11:53contribute specialist knowledge to
11:55improve how AI systems answer questions.
11:57And interestingly, the fellowship itself
11:59does not require previous AI training
12:01experience. Different projects, however,
12:03have their own educational and
12:04professional requirements. To apply,
12:06visit joinhandshake.com/ai.
12:08Create or access your handshake account,
12:10verify your phone number, complete your
12:12profile, and upload your resume.
12:14You'll also need to confirm your work
12:16authorization and complete identity
12:17verification before starting an assigned
12:19project. Now, there's a very important
12:21restriction. The regular Handshake AI
12:23Fellowship currently requires applicants
12:25to be based in the United States and
12:26possess supported US work authorization.
12:28International participation is currently
12:30invitation only. So if you're watching
12:32from Nigeria, the UK, or another country
12:34outside the US, don't assume you can
12:36simply register and start working. Check
12:38the current eligibility rules first.
12:40Compensation varies by project, and
12:42you'll see the applicable rate before
12:43accepting an assignment. That's all for
12:45today. Check the official links in the
12:46description, prepare your resume, and
12:48explore the opportunities that match
12:49your skills. And remember, we're
12:51bringing you 10 more websites in the
12:52next video. See you there.
