At Appen, our Crowd is global, and we love hearing from our Contributors how we became part of their daily lives. We spoke to Steven, from the United States, about how he joined Appen to give his life more flexibility.
Please tell us about yourself.
Why did you choose Appen?
I chose to be a Contributor for Appen because of the flexibility it offers. I worked for a large corporation and had a health issue which made it impossible to continue in that line of work. During my recovery, I found Appen and it is a lifesaver because it allows me to contribute as an auditor and a rater on many interesting projects while also juggling family life.
When do you do your work?
Steven and his family enjoying nature
I usually start in the very early hours of the morning. Depending on how many projects I’m working, I might continue throughout the day.
What is your favorite part about being a Contributor?
The best part is being able to work on a wide variety of topics over multiple projects. I also like helping explain things to fellow Contributors as an auditor.
What has Appen enabled you to do that you couldn’t before?
Thanks for chatting with us, Steven!
