The role
We're hiring working retail and pharmacy professionals to audit AI work product in their own field, not to produce it.
You'll see an AI agent's complete attempt at a realistic task from your job: the task as written, what the agent did, the files it produced, and the scoresheet an AI grader filled in afterwards. You bring the judgment of someone who does this work for a living, and answer four questions:
Is this a real task? Would it come up in this job, described this way? Realistic, borderline, or contrived.
Is the domain content right? Are the standards, figures, regulations and constraints accurate and consistent, or is something subtly wrong in a way only a practitioner would catch?
Does the grading hold up? The grader answered eleven yes/no questions about the finished work: correct format, fabricated figures, requirements met, terminology, and so on. You go through them with the files open and say where you disagree, and why.
Is the score defensible? Band the work yourself. Could a practitioner use it? Accept it? Then check the reported score against your band.
About an hour per item. You never perform the task or redo the agent's work.
Who we're looking for
Four roles. Apply to the one that's actually yours:
Pharmacists. Active US pharmacist license, 4+ years dispensing and counseling in community or retail practice.
Private Detectives and Investigators. Licensed where your state requires it, 4+ years running your own casework and writing the reports.
General and Operations Managers. 5+ years owning a store or multi-site P&L, its staffing and its inventory.
First-Line Supervisors of Retail Sales Workers. 4+ years supervising a sales floor, its schedule and its shrink.
We want people who know the field cold: anyone who has caught someone else's error before it reached a customer, whether that is a DUR intervention, a bad surveillance report, or an inventory count that did not hold up. Less of a fit are corporate category or merchandising staff who never ran a location, and PIs whose work is entirely public-records lookup.
Also required: near-native business English, because you write a short reason for every judgment, and enough comfort with a spreadsheet or PDF to check whether the numbers in it reconcile.
First step
Your first step is a short recorded interview about your own area of expertise, around 15 minutes. Once you're on the project, your first task is a brief intake profile you complete yourself, unaided.
Requirements
- Must be eligible to work in one of: Remote, United States
- Fluent proficiency in English (Written & Verbal)
- Reliable high-speed internet connection
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience
- Demonstrated expertise in Business

Common questions
Does it cost money to apply to Mercor?
No, applying and joining Mercor is free. Mercor's revenue comes from a fee it charges the client on top of your hourly rate, not from applicants. Treat any request for payment to join as a red flag.
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.
What does task-based AI training work look like?
Practical, hands-on data work: recording short videos, categorizing images, rating text responses, or analyzing data. Tasks are designed to be short and distinct, typically 5 to 60 minutes each.
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 Business work look like for a Retail and Pharmacy Practice Reviewer?
Tasks here are scoped to Business, not generic labeling. As a Retail and Pharmacy Practice Reviewer, expect to draw on real domain judgment (evaluating outputs, correcting errors, or providing expert reasoning specific to Business) rather than following a one-size-fits-all rubric. If you don't have hands-on Business background, this is likely not the right listing to start with.
What specific skills does this listing call for?
English is named directly in the listing. If you don't have hands-on experience with this, expect the screening process to test for it directly rather than accepting adjacent experience as a substitute.
How much does this specific role pay?
This listing is posted at $55–$65/hr, an hourly rate. The range reflects experience level and negotiated terms, not a placeholder, so where you land in it depends on your background and the assessment. 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 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.
