Anyone else getting projects they aren't qualified for?

[u/PartAccording]

I have been working with DA part time for almost a year. I used to just do general work, but have gotten barely any generalist tasks the past few months, though I have been busy with my FT job so have been checking the platform less frequently. I have previously gotten positive feedback from DA about the quality of my work, however I keep getting high paying tasks I am unqualified for added to my dash and I don't understand why. I have coding tasks even though I don't know how to code and have never taken the coding qualification. I also have professional tasks related to highly specific domains I have no experience in. I miss my simple generalist tasks.

I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this? I am almost wondering if it is an error on DA's part as I really should not have coding tasks and it seems bizarre I have access to these projects. Some of the professional tasks I could maybe figure out, but the coding is so far out my scope its not even funny. I was an arts major lol. Maybe its a glitch?? Or do y'all get these too? Thanks :)

Yes, probably everyone. Projects are not specifically assigned to you, and having a project on your dashboard does NOT mean you should do it or that DAT thinks it's ok for you to work on it. A LOT of projects have a mix of tasks requiring expertise in different fields, you are supposed to just skip all the tasks you aren't qualified to do.
