Turing screens with a short application, proctored tests on some roles, and an interview it says is typically required for all of them. The test rules are strict: stop sharing your screen, camera or microphone more than four times and you wait 90 days. From Turing’s help centre, read 13 October 2026.
The AI work Turing screens for
Turing’s help centre describes its AI Advancement work as helping frontier AI labs improve model reasoning and accuracy. Of the 15 open Turing roles on this site:
- 13 are AI Quality Analyst roles, which ask you to design prompts and judge the quality of a model’s answers
- 2 are expert roles in fields such as scientific computing, bioinformatics and business analysis
Tests and interviews check the skill the role names, so read the posting closely before you apply.
Applying, and when the tests appear
Turing’s application is a short form, which it says takes under two minutes. Some roles then send you straight to their tests when you submit. Turing says it does not review an application until every required test is done.
Not every role has tests. If you see no Next button on the assessment welcome page, or a “No Vetting Flow Found” message, Turing says the role may need none. Its review page adds that an assessment opens only once you are selected for that stage. A role in Pending Review with no test link is normal.
You cannot withdraw an application once it is submitted.
Set up before the test starts
Turing’s checklist for a proctored test:
- A desktop or laptop, plugged in. Assessments are not built for phones.
- Chrome 74+ or Edge 79+, or the latest Firefox. Never Incognito or private mode.
- Extensions off, including Grammarly and coding assistants, and VPN, ad blockers and privacy tools off.
- At least 4 Mbps, and your system clock set to automatic.
- Your entire screen shared, not a window or a tab.
- A real camera and microphone. Turing says a virtual device such as OBS or an iPhone camera invalidates the attempt.
- Nothing else using the camera: close Zoom, Teams, Slack calls and FaceTime first.
Turing also suggests testing that your network allows WebSocket connections, at websocketstest.com, before you begin.
The rules that end an attempt
- Four pauses is the limit. Pausing or stopping screen, camera or microphone sharing more than four times disqualifies you automatically, and you cannot retake that test for 90 days.
- The timer keeps running during a connection problem. When time runs out, the test submits itself, connected or not.
- Refreshing is safe. Turing says reloading the page does not disqualify you.
Fix any problem fast, because the clock does not stop for it.
If something breaks
Use Report a problem inside the assessment while it is happening. Turing says support can reset a test only when a technical fault forced a submission or stopped you finishing it. For any other reason, a retake means the 90-day wait.
Escalated technical cases can take up to 48 business hours for a first reply. Turing asks you not to open a second ticket for the same problem; reply to the first one instead.
After: review times and the 6-week silence
Turing’s review page says review takes 48 hours to 6 weeks after you complete every step. By level:
| Role level | Typical review |
|---|---|
| Entry or early career | 1 to 2 weeks |
| Mid level | 2 to 3 weeks |
| Senior or specialised | 3 to 4+ weeks |
The stages it lists are application review, an initial screening call or test, role interviews, a final interview with reference checks, then an offer. The client makes the final decision.
Only candidates who move forward are contacted, by email or WhatsApp. Turing gives no individual feedback. If you hear nothing within 6 weeks, it says you were most likely not selected. After a formal rejection, you must wait three months before applying to the same role again.
Onboarding, and the rule on AI tools
If you are selected, onboarding runs on Turing’s own platform or through Deel. Turing lists these steps:
- Sign its Terms of Service.
- Set up two-factor authentication.
- Verify your ID. Turing accepts only a driver’s licence or a passport, and not digital national ID documents.
- Fill in a tax form: W-9 for US residents, W-8BEN for everyone else.
- Add your payment details and sign your scope of work.
Turing says your system logins arrive by email within 24 hours before your start date.
Its project rules cover AI use. Presenting AI-generated work as your own is a breach, and so is using AI to solve, explain or evaluate your tasks. Either can mean removal from the project, no pay for that work and a permanent ban.
What Turing does not publish
None of the following is on a Turing help page, so this site does not state it:
- what the tests contain, or the pass mark
- how long the interview runs or what it asks
- which roles trigger a background check
- the payment method, and one consistent pay date: its talent page says bi-weekly, its help centre says monthly
Before you start
Pick the role closest to your field, clear the setup list, and keep every share running for the whole test. Then browse the open Turing roles. To compare screening elsewhere, see the micro1 and Mercor interviews side by side.
This site is not affiliated with Turing, and passing the tests is not a promise of work.
