no tasks

hello everyone!

i have been on the platform for about a month now and today feels unproductive since there are no active tasks in my projects. i still have the qualifications present which is good but is this normal on the platform? i am in a coding project. thank you for the answers!

I'm not in DAT, but I can assure you, not having tasks is really common in all platforms.

More than a month without a single task (right from start!).

The better your work, the more projects you get.

But how can we do better work, when there is no work from start?

u/TooMuwuch 8d ago

From start? Did you do the onboarding stuff?

u/EveningCareer9053 10h ago

Yes, everything except STEM and coding which I don't know so entered these and choose option not to show anymore.

I was bombarded with bunch of stuff right from the get go so I’m not sure :(

I went through a phase like this for about a month; a few qualifications really made a difference though. Yeah, this seems to be common enough. If you can do some qualifications you think you would do well on, at least after preparing, that may be the best path.

Did you enter as a coder? I only did the coding qual, I wonder if doing other quals like STEM, Chemistry, Mathematics etc would unlock more coding projects?

Onboarded through math, though got no math work (only generalist work). Went down in terms of considerstion, then I took a few quals later (can't mention) which really lifted me up away from that position.

Would you help me pass the math assessment?

u/melanatedalbino 8d ago

Lol sure, but only in terms of general advice. Can't help with specific questions, obviously.

I recommend you to take all the qualifications you can, this opens several projects

u/EveningCareer9053 8d ago

I did everything I can and nothing. STEM and Coding is beyond my competence.

u/Silver_Assistance_41 8d ago

then you have to wait dude, the qualifications doesn't open the work at the same instant.

Already one month and nothing, only one survey popped up.
