i am not sure if this is worth it. 1 hour for $0.50 on the qual which is expected and if each $2 hit is going to be 30 mins, it will be underpaid. May also be underpaid if everyone and their mom gets the qual so a few thousand get devoured in 10 mins, making the qual useless.

I've taken the attitude that most quals from well known requesters are worth the time. Even if it sucks to do and is underpaid, just nabbing one really good qual paying $30+/hour makes it alllll worth it

how do we know the NLP is a $30/hr batch? All I can tell is that each hit pays $2 but it is not stated that I can tell how long each HIT takes.

We don't know and that's why it's worth the chance (in my opinion)

I had no idea the Alexandria's would be paying me $56/hour and I almost skipped taking the qual
I also had a qual that was a lot of info and a huge pain and evidently only I did the qual successfully because I was the only one working on the HITs and it paid me $60/hour like 2 weeks ago

I just think it's worth the chance even if it doesn't work out because the good ones outweigh the bad and average ones when you get them

I agree, it gives you opportunities.

sometimes requesters reuse quals as well, and when they do, the new hits can be an improvement.
occasionally they increase pay on hits as well. It is worth it to revisit requesters and hits from time to time on work you have been passing on to see if the work has evolved and fits better with what you are good at. many times you can find good pockets of work that way that you didn't initially think was worth it.

When that qual hit showed up in my queue, I remembered the ABC's of Mturk, and dismissed it because I was ultra involved in another batch that was making me good $$, but also because I was just damn tired and had no patience to read and understand the directions. I justified my decision to return it because I figured I'd get another shot at it tomorrow, lol. My bad!

Usertesting has been a good little side income recently, $30 this week so far.

They had issues with an old video recorder recently (3 tests borked on my end, was glad to see on forums, I was not alone), and today was the first time I've run it with the new computer video recorder, worked fine.

I lean to the phone tests more, they seem quicker / the video recording goes easier.

It took a month or two to get going with Usertesting. I'm starting to see results. FYI
