If you want to get started working with Leapforce there are a few things you need to know. Here’s how the process works:
- First you can go here to view and apply to the available positions.
- After you submit your application you may be chosen to take a three part qualification exam. Per Leapforce’s website this exam will be difficult and tests your skills in practical and theoretical search engine evaluation. If you fail any part of the test you’ll be able to retake it once. Most applicants can complete the registration and exam within two weeks.
- After completing registration and passing the exam you’ll be able to start working. You can view available work from your Leapforce dashboard. Work is first come first serve.
- You’ll also be required to keep track of your hours and to submit an invoice to Leapforce each month.
If you’re looking for a flexible way to earn extra money becoming a search engine evaluator could be a good option. Since there are no set hours you do need to be highly motivated to make this kind of position work.
It’s also important to remember that as an independent contractor you are essentially running your own business and therefore will be responsible for any taxes that need paid.
