Before you start
TELUS Digital AI Community hires for specific roles by country and language — for example search or map evaluation, or data collection. Openings rotate, so the roles you see depend on where you live.
The process is slower than most. At the time of writing, members report waits of several weeks between applying and starting. Pay is typically monthly, by Payoneer or bank transfer depending on country.

Step by step
Apply to a specific role on the official website. You may be asked to confirm eligibility details, such as how long you have lived in your country. Then you typically receive a long guideline document and an open-book exam, often in several parts.
Open-book does not mean easy. The exam checks whether you can find and apply the right rule quickly. Read the guidelines before you begin, and plan the exam over the time allowed.

Your first weeks
After passing, there is usually an administrative step (contract, tax form, payment setup) before tasks appear. Once working, you typically log hours in a timesheet. Only record time you actually worked.
Ongoing quality checks are common. Keep your guideline notes handy, as rules are updated from time to time.

Tips for beginners
This is one of the steadier options for beginners in many countries, because work is hour-based and continuous once you are in. The wait is worth planning around, not giving up on.
Check your email and spam folder every day while you wait.
Tips for experienced contributors
If you speak more than one language well, look for roles in less common language markets. They are often less competitive.
Pair TELUS work with a higher-paid, less predictable platform. The steady hours cover quiet weeks elsewhere.
