How to apply to Weekday

Who can join

• Live where the posting is open. Each lists its countries, and some their US states: the US Gemini rater role excludes Texas, Illinois, California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Vermont.
• The credential the posting names. The Medical Coder role, for example, needs an active AHIMA Certified Coding Specialist (CCS) or AAPC Certified Inpatient Coder (CIC) certification and hands-on inpatient coding experience, with no AI experience required.
• Time for the hours and time zone the posting sets: the Terminal Bench physical sciences role, for example, is 40 hours a week for 5 weeks, with at least 4 hours a day of overlap with US Pacific time.
• Work authorization where a posting limits it: the STEM Researcher posting says it cannot support H-1B or STEM OPT candidates.
• For the Gemini rater roles, a Gemini App account with at least 18 months of history and 10 or more conversations about learning or study, exported as a JSON file for review. An account made for the project does not qualify.
• Your own computer and fast internet; the Engineering Expert role also asks for weekend on-call availability.
• For the Senior SWE (Python / TypeScript) role, a LinkedIn profile included in your resume; people currently employed by Microsoft cannot apply.

Step by step

1. 1

   Find a role on Weekday's Workable board

   Weekday's AI training roles sit in the AI Training department of its board at apply.workable.com/weekday-1: 62 of its 484 postings on 12 November 2026. All but one say the role is for one of its clients; 60 state a rate, and each lists the countries it is open in.

2. 2

   Apply with your resume

   The application form of the postings we checked asks only for your first and last name, email, phone number and a resume (PDF, DOC, DOCX, ODT or RTF, up to 12 MB), with no cover letter or extra questions. The form says the hiring team may use your phone number to contact you about the job.

3. 3

   Confirm your interest and availability

   Several postings begin with an Interest Check Form to confirm your interest and availability. The Terminal Bench science postings say to use the same email address on it as on 'the agency portal submission', so expect a second sign-up on the client's side (our reading of that line).

4. 4

   Take the posting's screening

   Each posting sets its own: software roles answer screening questions, take an AI interview of about 30 minutes and a technical assessment if required; other roles take a timed test, a Google Forms assessment or a portfolio review (see the assessment below).

5. 5

   Manager review and onboarding

   A hiring or delivery manager reviews your background, results and fit. People selected get instructions and resources and should be ready to start their first tasks within 24 to 48 hours of onboarding.

6. 6

   Work and get paid as a contractor

   You are paid per approved hour or per task that meets the project's acceptance criteria, and some projects set a minimum number of tasks a week. The postings state no medical benefits or paid leave.

Tips to get accepted

• Before you accept, ask who the client is, who signs your contract and who pays you, by what method and how often. The postings say only that the role is for one of Weekday's clients, and some say the rate or payment terms 'should be confirmed before engagement'.
• Read the whole posting, because some contradict themselves: the Earth Sciences pod lead role states a maximum of USD 16 an hour for 4 weeks, then $30 an hour for 16 weeks.
• Where a rate has no currency, get it confirmed in writing: on 12 November 2026, 10 of the 62 AI Training postings gave an hourly range with none, such as the US Medical Coder's 50 to 70 an hour.
• Weekday's own team contacts candidates by email, WhatsApp and phone, so a message on WhatsApp is not proof of a scam; match it to a posting on the Workable board, and never pay anything, since Weekday says it is free for candidates.
• If a posting needs your Gemini history, you may remove personal information and individual chats from the exported JSON file before you send it.
• Weekday's candidate terms let it share your profile with companies using its platform and use your data for its own marketing (you can opt out of promotional messages). To have your data deleted, email privacy@weekday.works with the subject 'DPDP Request'.
