$70–110/hr

rate as listed

Workload: 20+ hrs/week
Engagement: Project-based
Location: US
Field: Generalist

Evaluate AI-generated plans, procedures and workflows for facilities, procurement, records management and office operations. The work draws on practical administrative management experience to judge operational soundness, policy compliance and cost-effectiveness.

The work

You will review AI-generated administrative artifacts, including office operations plans, vendor-management documents, facilities materials and records-management procedures. Day-to-day tasks may involve comparing two responses, checking whether proposed workflows are workable and compliant, and explaining which response is stronger based on evidence from your experience.

What Mercor screens for

Mercor is looking for at least 4 years of experience in administrative services management or a closely related role, plus direct experience planning, directing or coordinating supportive services. The screening is likely to test your command of facilities, procurement, recordkeeping, budgeting, space planning, staffing and process improvement. Strong written English is required because evaluations must identify specific defects and support judgments clearly.

Logistics

The expected commitment is 20+ hours per week for approximately 4–6 weeks, with an immediate start. The listing does not specify whether the work is remote or fully asynchronous, so candidates should confirm location and scheduling expectations with Mercor. Payment is task-based upon first-task approval, after which experts who complete that task within the required timeline may qualify for hourly payment for the remainder of the project.

Interview prep — 10 questions

Matched to what this platform's screening actually measures. Answer each out loud in 60–90 seconds: claim → concrete example → implication.

What it tests: This tests whether you meet the 4-year threshold and have personally managed functions such as facilities, procurement, records, mail or office operations rather than only supporting them.
A strong answer: Give a chronological account with dates, organization context, scope of responsibility and concrete examples of services you planned or directed. Distinguish personal decision authority from work performed by your team or vendors.
Where people lose it: Candidates lose points by naming broad operations roles without showing that supportive services fell within their own remit.
