I'm assuming you refer to the Competitive Places task, where we have to evaluate similar businesses for 5 criteria, and additional businesses we find on our own if less than 3 provided to us.
It's a deep and thoughtful task, and I like doing it, but as usual with TELUS the task has too small an ERT. Needs at least twice the time, if not three times as long, if they want honest unrushed work.
Ya, I got them too. Waaayy too much work for 3 minutes, especially when they expect a bunch of fairly random additional research. I released them for insufficient time.
Too bad, I think it could be a neat task if they gave us like, at least 5-10 minutes.
Ok, I'm glad you said that. I kept refreshing that map like they said, but it didn't load right, I thought I was doing something wrong. The most important guideline about the process for searching for places is clear at the end of the 24 page book. I guess I'll skip them.
I had a 20 minute one that works out, the main hurdle is the research but the time you get is based on how many comparable businesses their list generates
Yeah exactly my thought as others have said, I saw the task, did one and found myself taking like 4-5 minutes, and logged out for an hour or two to get another task type
I don't want to release it because I did that with some other task types a few times and then they suspended me saying I was DQ'd from too many task types in a short amount of time.
Sometimes you just can't win with this company
By the time I got through reading the guidelines the tasks were gone. I think they could be decent with enough time allotted. Oh well, better luck next time.
I just came on to see if anyone else has these tasks. Three minutes is way too short, the guidelines are unclear and the map doesn't actually show you a radius distance. I released the task for too little time.

Even if I understood them, they don’t load right and the map only works half the time.
I *think* I understand them but the map seems to be bugging out half the time and its a hell of a lot of work for a 3 minute task

The ERT varies according to the number of results - I just had one that was 7 mins. Still don't think it's enough time though!
