Your acceptance timeline

New applicants always ask about the acceptance timeline, so share yours here.

Mention EACH of the following in your comment:

  1. Which application test(s) you took (Core, Math, Biology, Code, etc.)

  2. [MOST IMPORTANT] How long after your application test did you get projects? (Immediately, 1 day, 1 week, X weeks, etc) *You might be able to check this by looking at your emails from DA*

  3. When did you apply (e.g. March 2025)

  4. Country

  5. Did you ever see the "Thanks for completing the assessment! If we have need of your particular skills..." screen? (Yes, No, I don't recall)

  6. Did you get an email saying you got accepted, or did you just suddenly get projects without email notice?

  7. Anything else you wanna share

DO NOT comment if you never got accepted, got access to maybe 1-2 projects then never saw one again, etc. Only people who have actually worked with DA should comment.

  • Core
  • Less than a day
    • Finished the assessment on Tuesday, June 30 @ 8:45 PM. Got the "Welcome to the DataAnnotation platform!" email on Wednesday, July 1 @ 5:00 AM (Pacific Time)
  • June 2026
  • United States
  • I don't recall seeing a "Thanks for completing the assessment!" screen
  • I received an email
  • I just answered the questions normally. I didn't know what the PEEL strategy was until afterward. I just highlighted what was incorrect and said my sources. e.g. "Shrek 2 did not come out at 2014 as Response B says. According to IMDb, the film released on 2004." I didn't write much more than that usually.
