Only freelancers located in the U.S. may apply.U.S. located freelancers only

Summary

We're a communication-research company, and we pay people to do something simple: have a friendly, 30-minute video conversation with another participant. No scripts, no selling, no prep. ou do NOT need to be "good" at conversation — seriously. It's completely okay to be shy, nervous, quiet, or awkward. We are not judging your performance. There's no right way to do this and nothing to get wrong. We just want real, natural conversations between real people. The sessions are video-recorded and used to study how people communicate, so you'll sign a short video release / consent form before your first one. What you'll do - Join a private video room in your browser (no download) at a scheduled time - Have a relaxed ~30-minute conversation with one other person - That's genuinely it. Show up and be yourself. Requirements (nothing about being a "great talker") - 21+ and fluent, conversational English - A working webcam + microphone, a quiet space, and stable internet - Reliable and punctual — someone is matched to talk with you, so showing up on time matters - Okay being recorded and signing a standard video release Schedule — tell us which slots you can make (each is 30 min, repeats weekly): ▎ ⬇️ [these are the current 5 — we'll trim to your 3 once you pick] - Mondays — 4:30 PM ET (1:30 PM PT) - Wednesdays — 6:00 PM ET (3:00 PM PT) - Thursdays — 7:00 PM ET (4:00 PM PT) - Fridays — 3:30 PM ET (12:30 PM PT) - Saturdays — 1:00 PM ET (10:00 AM PT)
