How Long Does Sign Up Take for TryMyUI.com and Are Special Skills Required?
Sign up is a breeze. All you need to enter is your basic details and demographics. While anyone can sign up, to get the job you need to be comfortable giving a verbal review of your experience in English. So basic English skills and the ability to be descriptive are required, but chances are you’re more than qualified.
How Does It Work?
You download a software that records both your screen and your voice. When you open the software, a webpage will come up. The software guides you through different tasks and you verbally explain how you are navigating the website and how your experience is. Then you rate how easy that task was to completely
For example, my practice exam was for a food review website. My tasks were things along the lines of “find a restaurant near you that’s open late. ” I said aloud what I was doing to find the restaurant, how I liked the different colors, the ease of use, so on and so forth.
At the end, there were a handful of written questions that I typed out. “What did you like about the website?” “What features didn’t you like?” Etc.
NOTE: You’ll have to take a practice test and have it get reviewed in order to become a tester.
Can you Make Money Off It?
You earn $10 a test, each test takes 20 minutes.
The Qualm….
On paper, everything about TryMyUI.com sounds great. It’s easy to do, pays fairly, and to be honest it’s pretty fun! Reviewing websites is a breeze and time goes by fast. HOWEVER… there aren’t many tests available! You get emails when tests pop up, and you have to hop on them ASAP in order to take them.
Will I Be Using TryMYUI.com?
If a test pops up and I happen to be a home and not in the middle of something… sure! But it’s not a reliable online side hustle.
