Expert track

Work that pays for what you already know

Some of the work commissioned through Jwuma needs a practitioner rather than a trained annotator: a clinician reading clinical output, a lawyer reading legal reasoning, a researcher judging whether an argument holds. If you hold that kind of qualification, the expert track is how you tell us.

Tiers

Three tiers, and exactly what each one asks for

Tiers are cumulative: the specialist tier can take contributor work, and the expert tier can take both. You are never locked out of work you already qualified for by moving up.

Contributor

The general track. You are approved for collection, annotation and transcription work after the written application and onboarding.

What we ask for
  • Written application. Read by a person, answered either way, with a reason recorded on any rejection.
  • Language evidence. Native or fluent command of the languages you want to work in, checked in onboarding.
What it opens up
  • Data collection
  • Annotation and labelling
  • Transcription
  • Field capture
Specialist

For work that needs demonstrated skill in a domain rather than a formal qualification. You pass a rubric-scored interview for the specific domain, and a person reviews the result.

What we ask for
  • Domain assessment. A rubric-scored interview for the domain you are applying into. The rubric is written by Corpshore AI staff and frozen before you sit it.
  • Relevant work history. Demonstrable experience in the domain, evidenced by portfolio, publication or employment.
What it opens up
  • RLHF and preference data
  • Model evaluation
  • Red teaming and safety
Credentialed expertRegister checked

For work that needs the qualification itself: medicine, law, accountancy, engineering, and research at doctoral level. Your credential is checked against the issuing body wherever that body publishes a register.

What we ask for
  • Qualification document. Degree certificate, practising licence or professional registration, read and recorded by a person.
  • Register check. Where the issuing body publishes a public register, the credential is checked against it and the check is dated. Where no register is published, the credential is document-verified only and the profile says so.
  • Domain assessment. A rubric-scored interview at practitioner depth. Holding the qualification is necessary here, not sufficient.
What it opens up
  • Expert reasoning traces
  • Domain evaluation panels
  • Agentic task environments
  • Specialist red teaming
How the decision is made

A person decides, and you are told why

What the assessment does

You sit a rubric-scored interview for the domain you are applying into. The rubric is written by Corpshore AI staff and frozen before you sit it, so everyone applying into that domain in that window is judged against the same standard.

It scores the criteria in the rubric and nothing else. It does not score your personality, your accent, your manner or anything it might infer about you as a person, and we do not store inferences of that kind.

What it does not do

It does not decide. A low score holds your application for review rather than rejecting it, and a named member of staff makes every acceptance and every rejection.

  • A written reason is recorded on every decision, including rejections.
  • You can appeal, and the appeal is read by a different person.
  • Holding the qualification is necessary for the expert tier, not sufficient.
  • Not qualifying for a tier never affects work you are already approved for.
Being straight with you

Where our checks are weaker than they sound

We check credentials against an issuing body's public register wherever that body publishes one. Plenty do not. Where there is no register to check, we verify your documents and a person reads them, but that is a weaker check and we are not going to describe it as though it were the same thing.

Your profile records which of the two happened. Clients commissioning expert work see that distinction, because selling a document check as a register check would be a lie told about you rather than by you.

Pay

What expert work pays

Expert work pays more than general contributor work, and the rate depends on the domain, the format and the commissioning client. Every rate is shown in full before you reserve any work, so you decide whether it is worth your time before you spend any of it, not after.

  • Rates are shown before you reserve, never after you deliver.
  • There is no unpaid production work at any tier.
  • Payouts run on your country's local rails, on the usual schedule.
  • Approved work is approved by a person, not held indefinitely by a queue.

Apply once. The application asks what you hold and which domains you want to work in, and we come back to you either way.
