What we tell everyone first
- The work is project-based. Reviewers on Trustpilot praise micro1 and also describe projects that end after a week with little notice. Treat it as side income, not a salary.
- High pay goes with credentials. Listed rates run from $14 an hour for general evaluation roles to $100 or more for lawyers, scientists and senior engineers.
- Passing the interview is not a job offer. micro1 says certification does not guarantee placement; projects depend on demand.
- Never pay to get hired. A real platform pays you for work. Anyone asking for a fee to place you is not one.
Every figure on this site carries the date we checked it and where it came from. We write about what the sources say, not about work we have not done. AI Trainer Guide is independent and has no say in who micro1 hires.
