Handshake is looking for experienced GRE Quantitative Reasoning instructors to support AI research through flexible, hourly contract work. This is not a traditional job. You'll draw on your hands-on expertise in GRE quantitative instruction and test preparation to evaluate AI-generated educational content and provide feedback that helps AI better understand how to teach, explain, and support learners in quantitative reasoning.
This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity you can take on alongside anything else you have going on.

Placement depends on current project needs, with opportunities to be considered for future projects as they become available.

Demonstrated expertise in GRE Quantitative Reasoning; this opportunity is for quantitative instruction only and is not open to Verbal or Analytical Writing specialists

Why this role
$100/hr for GRE/GMAT Quantitative Instructor work covers both income and flexibility. You set your own hours, and the work draws on Generalist knowledge you already have instead of asking you to learn a new field.

Common questions
Can I use Handshake if I graduated years ago?
Probably not a good fit. Handshake's AI Fellowship roles target current university students and early talent within about 1-2 years of graduation. Experienced professionals typically find faster approval and better rates on Outlier or Mercor.
Is Handshake itself the employer for AI training roles?
For the AI Fellowship roles specifically, yes, Handshake acts as the employer of record. That's different from the rest of the site, which functions as a job board listing openings for other companies.
Is AI training work the same as traditional consulting?
No. Instead of client deliverables, you're given complex scenarios to evaluate: grading the AI's logic, correcting its hallucinations, and supplying expert-level reasoning it doesn't have on its own. The job is closer to teaching than consulting.
Why do these AI training roles pay so much?
Because general knowledge isn't what's being tested. The model already knows the basics; what it needs is expertise on edge cases, the rare, difficult, highly technical judgment calls only a senior professional in the field would make correctly.
What does Generalist work look like for a GRE/GMAT Quantitative Instructor?
Tasks here are scoped to Generalist, not generic labeling. As a GRE/GMAT Quantitative Instructor, expect to draw on real domain judgment (evaluating outputs, correcting errors, or providing expert reasoning specific to Generalist) rather than following a one-size-fits-all rubric. If you don't have hands-on Generalist background, this is likely not the right listing to start with.
What specific skills does this listing call for?
Expert and AI Training are named directly in the listing. If you don't have hands-on experience with these, expect the screening process to test for them directly rather than accepting adjacent experience as a substitute.
How much does this specific role pay?
This listing is posted at $100/hr, an hourly rate. Pay can change between when we last checked the listing and when you apply, so confirm the current number on the platform's own application page before committing time.
What happens when I click Apply on this listing?
You'll be taken to Handshake's external site to complete your application there. This listing links through a referral, but the process is identical to applying directly; the link just routes you correctly. Create an account on their site and follow their onboarding steps.
Are Handshake AI training listings internships?
Some are, some aren't. Handshake lists both standard internships and separate "AI Trainer" fellowships. Check the job description for "1099" or "Contract" language: that signals a freelance role, not W-2 employment.
