- Advanced communication skills in English
How the pay is spread
Half of the listings with a published rate fall between $60 and $95 an hour. The bottom of the range is $30 and the top is $400. Rate depends far more on credentials and specialism than on which platform you use.
Which platform to start with
micro1 currently lists the most roles in this category (18 of 36). Platforms differ mainly in eligibility and how they screen, not in the kind of work. See which platforms hire in your country before you spend time on applications.
How to apply
Applications are completed on the hiring platform, not on this site. Most of these platforms screen with a short qualification step before routing you to paid work, so a complete profile matters more than a long cover letter. Applying is free and none of these platforms charge a fee to start.
