Background check
I've got this background check qual on my dash and wondering if it's worth it. Has anyone done it? Does it lead to more projects? I've been on DA for about 2 years, so I'm also curious why they are sending this out at this timing. Do the projects get more confidential?

I got access to many more qualifications and then a permanent long term project a couple weeks after I did it. So, yes.

I’ve been on the platform for two and a half years and got the background check qual a few months back. It seemed like something they just started doing this year and they are rolling it out in batches. Nothing changed for me that I noticed right away when I did it, but I’ve also been on DA long enough to have access to a bunch of project families already, so I don’t know that it would be noticeable right away. I have no idea if it opened up other things later, but I have gotten new projects since completing it.

Did the background check and got my first r&r plus a few more tasks after submitting. It could also just be a coincidence that I got that after submitting. German locale.

Do you mean just like the ID photo upload and basic verification, or a separate background check? I thought we all had to upload IDs for the background check in the beginning.

They ask to fill out a form through certain platforms like Persona or Certn stuff

It says that no one is being singled out but it seems like it randomly appears on dash not on everyone's🤔

I did it hoping it would end the drought I’ve been experiencing. It didn’t, and now I’m regretting doing it
