+New contributors are limited to working on one job at a time, **do not submit proposals for new jobs until your first PR has been merged**. Experienced contributors may work on numerous jobs simultaneously.
 
 Please be aware that compensation for any support in solving an issue is provided **entirely at Expensify’s discretion**. Personal time or resources applied towards investigating a proposal **will not guarantee compensation**. Compensation is only guaranteed to those who **[propose a solution and get hired for that job](https://github.com/Expensify/App/blob/main/contributingGuides/CONTRIBUTING.md#propose-a-solution-for-the-job)**. We understand there may be cases where a selected proposal may take inspiration from a previous proposal. Unfortunately, it’s not possible for us to evaluate every individual case and we have no process that can efficiently do so. Issues with higher rewards come with higher risk factors so try to keep things civil and make the best proposal you can.
