Joining Mercor
Mercor referral link
Our Mercor referral is paused for now: Mercor credits a referrer for only so many new people at a time, and it reopens as earlier sign-ups age out. Mercor's steps to apply are below.
How to use it
- While our referral is paused, create your Mercor account on its own sign-up page.
- Then apply as Mercor asks: Create an account at work.mercor.com (passwordless email or Continue with Google) and finish its onboarding (legal name, LinkedIn, resume, work authorization, phone verification), apply to a listing or take assessments directly, complete the AI video interview (about 20 minutes for most) plus any role-specific assessment, and when a project team picks you, accept the offer, clear ID verification and any required background check, and start a contract that pays out weekly. Every step, researched.
- Once you work, Mercor pays on its own schedule: every Wednesday, for the week before.
