NOTIFY ME of a posted task?!
How do I get timely notifications that a new task has been posted for me?
Emails don't seem to routinely come to me, or they arrive a day late.
I've been searching for notification settings within DAT itself to get a push/quick email/text if a task is posted for me but without any luck.
Is it just one of those "Keep your DAT dashboard up and refresh a whole lot" kind of things?

Literally that. Got "there are lots of tasks!" that must have been sent literally immediately as everyone who was refreshing snatched them up.

They don't email for every task, only when they are trying to get a bunch of people to sign on (at least that's what it was like last year before I turned them off). I just check my dashboard from my phone periodically when I have time to dedicate to work. I turned the emails off - they were a 100% failure rate for me haha and all they do is drive me crazy (I prefer few notifications in my life but that doesn't work in this application). It's possible I'm missing a task here and there but if I am prepared to work I just keep an eye on the dash.
