I'd give the app more stars if 80% of the gigs I get notifications for weren't 2 hour drive away. Out of all of them maybe 20% are within a reasonable distance. I won't be driving over 100 miles for a minimum wGe gig for 5 hours. The distance filter is absolutely pointless. Also be prepared to take a bunch of quizzes and selfies of all your work clothes before you get a decent match. Also there is no option in the app to contact support in any way.

This app is extremely thorough when it comes to building your profile and applying for positions. The screening process is very intricate when deciding what skilled positions you are qualified to do. In the beginning,it seems like a LOT to do, but the hard work you put in is definitely worth it once you begin booking shifts! Instawork is AMAZING!! The only downside is if we have a problem, theres no one we can call for an immediate response. 24/7 customer service would be beneficial for us all!

It's not a bad gig app but they don't act like a gig app. It's very strict and picky for gigs like concessions and cashiering and that deters me because I have a FT job and that's easier than this. Plus you need constant background checks, verifications, references all for low end temporary jobs that are easy to get elsewhere but permanently. Too many hoops to jump through for low pay. Just because the hourly looks good doesn't mean it'll add up good. I just don't see the worth.
