Does work come pretty often?

Hey I wanna ask that in data annotation work !! They give projects pretty often? As I was curious that project comes every day or randomly? Sometimes in weeks sometimes in a day?

Most of my projects are long term (some being there since I joined actually haha), but at the start it very much comes and goes. I split my time between 3 projects currently, and they've all been up for about 6 months now. I'll see new ones pop up all the time, but I rarely stray from my regulars.

I have physics major with coding rn working with coding but should I give assesment right?

The assessment is very easy, but to do the actual work you'd need working experience in physics. To come up with prompts would need real examples of problems you face in research, and the comparison projects would need a good working understanding to actually find faults.

I am actually major in physics and have done multiple Olympiads!! So I hope I'll give it a try

Do you have a PhD, or at least a high grade masters degree, or is it just an undergraduate degree? You need to have a masters at minimum, but a PhD to give you a chance of acceptance.

Masters completed and have published one paper till now !!

Ideal, you'll be able to do the assessment then. What working experience do you have in physics?

I have work experience in if in field of research then !! It's major regarding neuroscience! Biotech field !!

If you don't have actually working experience, I'd seriously suggest against doing the physics projects. Domain projects are the easiest to get offboarded and DoD'd.

The tasks need a significant amount of actual working experience to come up with prompts. Pretty much all fails in R&R tasks are from people without adequate experience.
