Cons

“The only thing i spotted is when I tried to choose a device for my camera and mic, I cannot select anything, maybe with the options visible I could get a better sound and image.”

Ricardo M.

Audio Video Editor

“The only snag for me has been the internet connection, and the inability to copy and paste my Prolific ID code in, which feels a bit clunky.”

Emily O.

Director of Operations

“The only issue I can find is that some of the questions seem outdated, and that they cannot really measure one's full potential, for example, this lacks of emotional intelligence metrics, people skills, human quality and creative potential.”

Renato L.

Creative Director
