Screening steps
Roles by the steps they name. A role naming several counts under each.
| Step | Open roles | Share | Median pay |
|---|---|---|---|
| Written test or assessment | 806 | 58% | $125 |
| Interview with an AI interviewer | 429 | 31% | $125 |
| Identity check | 421 | 30% | $35 |
| Paid assessment | 145 | 10% | $65 |
| Background check | 32 | 2% | $95 |
Median pay is the middle hourly rate among the roles in that row that state one, in US dollars; each distinct rate on a platform counts once, and "up to" ceilings, per-task pay and paid studies are left out. A dash means fewer than five rates.

How we counted
Steps are what each posting says applicants go through. A paid assessment is one the platform pays you to take. Every figure is worked out from the open roles listed on aitrainers.jobs, re-checked hourly against each platform's own job board, and updates with them.
