About this role

From the Mercor listing

About This Survey

Mercor is opening a series of compliance and financial-crime engagements with leading AI labs over the coming weeks and months — spanning AML and BSA, KYC and client due diligence, sanctions screening, transaction monitoring and financial crime investigation, securities and wealth compliance, conduct and surveillance, regulatory reporting, and compliance testing and assurance. Before we finalize the scope of each, we want to build them around how compliance professionals actually work, not how the field is described in textbooks or public sources.

This is a written intake designed to map out the real workflows, tools, decision points, and specialty cuts inside the profession — from the inside.

What You'll Do

  • Complete a ~15 minute written intake about your compliance practice

  • Describe your day-to-day workflows, how your time is split, and the workflows core to your role

  • Explain how experienced practitioners actually divide the field from the inside — the cuts insiders use, not the textbook ones

  • Tell us where AI already gets your work wrong, with concrete examples from your own casework

  • Share the "invisible" parts of your work that outsiders (including project designers) tend to miss

  • No right or wrong answers — detail and specificity matter far more than polish

Ideal Respondents

  • Practicing or recently practicing compliance and financial-crime professionals — first line, second line, internal audit, or external advisory

  • Any seat: KYC/CDD and client onboarding, transaction monitoring and AML investigations, sanctions and screening, fraud and disputes, trade and communications surveillance, conduct and consumer-protection compliance, regulatory reporting and change, compliance testing and assurance

  • CAMS, CGSS, CFCS, CFE, CRCM, an ICA diploma, or FINRA registrations preferred; deep domain experience without a credential is equally welcome

  • Willing to write detailed, specific responses about the mechanics of your work

Why This Matters

  • Your intake shapes the scope of the compliance engagements we launch

  • Thoughtful responses translate directly into more offer matches and priority routing as we open new engagements over the coming weeks and months

  • Typical compliance rates on Mercor range from $90–$110/hr and scale with seniority

Common questions

Is Mercor for freelancers or full-time contractors?

Mercor places you with one client for a defined engagement, like 'Python Tutor for 3 months', rather than having you grab small tasks from a shared queue. Most roles function as steady contract work, not one-off gigs.

Does Mercor's application require an on-camera interview?

Yes, every applicant records a video interview with an AI interviewer that asks questions about your resume. Clients review that recording to judge communication skills before matching, so there's no way to apply without going on camera.

What does asynchronous AI training work mean in practice?

No set hours, no check-ins, no meetings. You log in when you want, pick up an available task, complete it, and submit; nobody is waiting on you in real time. That's different from remote employment, where you're expected online during business hours. The tradeoff: you're competing with others for available tasks, so an empty queue means there's simply nothing to do until more work is released.

What does Languages work look like for a Financial Compliance Expert (CL Funnel)?

Tasks here are scoped to Languages, not generic labeling. As a Financial Compliance Expert (CL Funnel), expect to draw on real domain judgment (evaluating outputs, correcting errors, or providing expert reasoning specific to Languages) rather than following a one-size-fits-all rubric. If you don't have hands-on Languages background, this is likely not the right listing to start with.

What specific skills does this listing call for?

Polish and Expert 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 $80/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.

Do I need to be fluent in Polish?

Yes. This role specifically requires Polish proficiency, on top of the English most AI training work assumes by default. If Polish is not a language you're fluent in, this is not the right role. Filter for your native language to find better-matched listings.

What happens when I click Apply on this listing?

You'll be taken to Mercor'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.

Can I apply from outside the United States?

This specific role is open only to people based in the United States. If you are somewhere else, applying is unlikely to lead to an offer even if you pass the assessment, because the restriction is usually about where the work can legally be contracted rather than your skills. Read the full description for any tax-residency or right-to-work caveats before you apply.

How soon will I start working after applying to Mercor?

Not immediately. Mercor is a talent marketplace, not a task queue, so applying puts you in a pool of candidates. You start working only once a specific client, like a major AI lab, selects your profile, and that matching process can take weeks.
