Google Jobs: Work as an Internet Judge for Google

Who Is An Internet Judge?
An Internet Judge is an individual who is employed by a search engine to review and rate websites. You could be an Internet Judge or an Internet Judge Multimedia. The difference is that the Internet Judge Multimedia rates the image and video content of websites while an Internet Judge determines the relevance of the other types of content such as text. An internet judge is also referred to as a Search Quality Judge.
How Does It Work?
The Internet Judge will be given a list of websites which he or she is to visit. Your job will be to rate these websites to ascertain if their content (text, image, video and etc) is satisfactory enough to be included in search engine results. This includes checking for quality and accuracy. You will also be responsible for determining the kind of search results that would satisfy specific search requests.
The criteria or guidelines for reviewing these websites will be explained when you are hired or during the application process.

How Much Can You Earn Working As An Internet Judge?
An internet judge does a job which is similar in some ways to what a search engine rater does. However, he or she is supposed to be skilled in the use of certain software. The recruiting companies also prefer candidates with college/university degrees for this position in contrast to an internet assessor position where academic qualifications do not really count. An internet assessor earns between $ 800 and $1200 a month if he or she works the maximum allowed 20 hours a week. As an internet judge, you can expect to earn more than $1000 a month.
How Will You Paid and How Often?
