Pros

I have a pretty decent relationship with this requester

Cons

This requester gets absolutely frustrating on occasion with random rejects because their review process is terrible. I've gotten soft blocked because they didn't read and understand their own instructions. Just don't use the word "article" anywhere in your writing because despite the fact that it isn't at the beginning (which they don't read properly), you'll still get banned/rejected. It becomes a lot less worth it when you have to communicate with the requester and beg for them to review your work a THIRD time because they "skimmed through" it the first two.

SEO Braintrust (Requester):

Requester here. Thank you for your feedback. We use software to pre-screen HITS to make paying workers even faster. From time to time there... can be a system error causing an incorrect rejection. We continue to work diligently to correct any problems and over the last few months have seen a drastic drop in incorrect rejections.

Thanks for working on our HITS.

In writing the summary of an article, using things like 'this article' or 'the author' doesn't add value to the summary, so we do prefer that writers not use those terms. I'll review the hit instructions to make sure that is clearer. Thank you.

Pros

Fast payment

Cons

I get a rejection for about 1/100 that I do. At present, they're only worth doing because I'm in the process of a move and need the extra cash, but apart from that it's getting very frustrating. Their automated system incorrectly flags certain hits for rejection and unlike in the past, no one responds to you and overturns incorrect rejections anymore.

Advice to Requester

Bring back the humans that can audit rejections, you're getting free work from us, wasting our time, and lowering our approval ratings.

Pros

Cons

I've had my work flat out rejected despite meeting all of the guidelines. It was later reversed but it should honestly never happen. SEO needs an overhaul to their "human reviewers" or their process entirely. There are too many "oops my bad" mistakes on their part.

Approval Tracking

Wage Aggregate Tracking

This is fairly straightforward: we take the completion time & the reward amount (where available) and calculate the average hourly rate for the task. We then apply that number to a simple range based on US minimum wage standards to color-code the data for easy to digest numerical data.

Color Pay Range (Hourly) Explanation
RED < $7.25 / hr Hourly averages below US Federal minimum wage
ORANGE $7.25 - $10.00 / hr Hourly averages between Federal & highest statewide (CA) minimum wages.
GREEN > $10.00 / hr Hourly averages above all US minimum wage standards

Reward Sentiment

Not all HITs are created equal. Sometimes an hourly wage doesn't convey the full story of a HIT's true worth, so we encourage workers to give their opinion on the overall pay of the task. Was it $8/hr to rate pictures of puppies? A worker could justifiably bump up the rating a bit for something so adorable. 10 hours locked in Inquisit? Even for $10/hr many workers would appreciate the heads up on such a task. The Pay Sentiment rating helps connect workers beyond the hard data.

Icon Rating Suggested Guidelines
Underpaid 1 / 5
  • Very low or no pay
  • Frustrating work experience
  • Inadequate instructions
Low 2 / 5
  • Below US min-wage ($7.25/hr)
  • No redeeming qualities to make up for pay
Fair 3 / 5
  • Minimum wages for task (consider SE taxes!)
  • Work experience offers nothing to tip the scales in a positive or negative direction
Good 4 / 5
  • Pay is above minimum wage, or compensates better than average for the level of effort required.
  • The overall work experience makes up for borderline wages
Generous 5 / 5
  • Pay is exceptional.
  • Interesting, engaging work or work environment
  • Concise instructions, well designed HIT.

Communication Ratings

Communication is an underrated aspect of mTurk. Clear, concise directions. A fast response to a clarification question or a resolution to a workflow suggestion can all be valuable aspects of interaction between Requesters & Workers and its worth keeping track of. Plus everyone enjoys the peace of mind knowing that if something does go wrong there will be an actual human getting back to you to solve the issue.

Icon Rating Suggested Guidelines
Unacceptable 1 / 5
  • No response at all
  • Rude response without a resolution
Poor 2 / 5
  • Responsive, but unhelpful
  • Required IRB or extra intervention
Acceptable 3 / 5
  • Responded in a reasonable timeframe
  • Resolves issues to a minimum level of satisfaction.
Good 4 / 5
  • Prompt Response
  • Positive resolution
Excellent 5 / 5
  • Prompt response time
  • Friendly & Professional
  • Helpful / Solved Issues
  • Interacts within the community

Approval Time Tracking

This rating is strictly for approval times. Let's face it, no one wants to mix approval time ratings with how fast a Requester rejects a HIT, so we've saved rejection flags for another category. This provides a more straightforward way to know about how long your HIT might sit pending before paying out. The default auto-approval for most MTurk tasks is 3 days, the maximum is 30 days. We've tried to base our ratings around those data-points.

Icon Rating Approval Time
Very Slow 1 / 5 Over 2 weeks
Slow 2 / 5 ~1 - 2 Weeks
Average 3 / 5 ~3 - 7 Days
Fast 4 / 5 ~1 - 3 Days
Very Fast 5 / 5 ~24 hours or less
