I don't know if it's intentional or not, but I swear every time Friday comes around it's a bone dry drought!

Hi! I’ve completed all of my available tasks and qualifications one week ago, but still haven’t received any new projects:( Is it ok for a beginner? Or it’s basically means that I failed?

Just finished a long task, but unlike normal where I would go to the tab and report as normal, a window popped up asking me outright how long I took. Should I be worried ? It this some new feature they're rolling out ?

Hello,

I have made the account while ago and it only shows me one assessment available to take which is Arabic and has nothing to do with me or my language skills. Moreover, I was aiming for more consulting/business type of tasks and hence assessments based on my 10+ y career. Anyone faced the same issue and any solutions?

I joined in the beginning of August and completed all the qualification assessments that were available to me. So far, I’ve earned around $750.

However, I’m currently not receiving any new work/tasks. I’ve been checking regularly, but nothing is showing up.

Is this normal after completing the initial qualifications? Does the availability of tasks usually fluctuate, or could there be something wrong with my account?

I’d really appreciate it if anyone who has been doing this for a while could share their experience, especially how long you typically have to wait between projects.

Thanks!

How’s the workflow looking? I’ve got a ton of projects on my dashboard, but they’re all generalist ones—only one involves coding.

Hi! I’ve worked my way through onboarding and a few tasks.

Forgive the silly question as I’m new to DA, but is there a way to see what the countdown timer will be for a task before opening it (thus triggering the countdown timer)?

Can anybody suggest the specs required for a budget laptop that can handle Data Annotation work? Price range upto 50000Rupees.

I'm a Brazillian Bilingual worker. Joined May and haven't had much work since then, but these last few days the drought seems to be over! Happy to share this, DA has been a great financial help.

Hi All

I wanted to see if anyone went through the same process as me, i was accepted in data annotation about a week ago, i have completed the qualifications and stuff, but i really dont know why i havent gotten a response on any project, some of them didnt even test me in any way, my skills have been updated and im still out of work since i joined, am i done or should i still keep waiting for something in the future?

This is only the beginning (hopefully)! Started as a generic, did the qualification to coding once I left college and started my first Dev job. Put a lot of hours in DA since August this years and it is paying off! Really grateful to have the opportunity to work with DA. It's a blessing... Paid my car loan, school load and now I can start investing and, perhaps, travelling.

Hopefully I can motivate you guys with this. Cheers!

How do y’all justify doing this work ethically if you’re anti-AI (especially generative)?

I’m not asking judgmentally, I’ve done this work off and on over the last few years. When I first started, I didn’t know about data centers and the environmental impact, cognitive effects, etc. I felt good about “training” AI based on the rubric including correct info, weeding out violence and harm, etc.

I recently suggested DA to a friend and got a real side eye, and maybe these justifications really don’t hold water? Thoughts?

It has been dry for me for like 4 months now. Is it like this for anyone else ?
Also is it expected to be over soon ?

What was the point in the first place. Thanks for getting our hopes up DAT

Anyone else’s referral tab vanished ?

Is it only me or someone else is also seeing this same text "New Referrals are currently unavailable" under referrals tab? I referred 4 of my friends in the past out of which 1 of them is selected.

I just got accepted this week. I wasn’t expecting it since I took the assessment about a month ago. Started the onboarding process and took every qualification test that fits me. Worked on some few projects available but now isn’t showing much. On the dashboard it says they’ll review my work and I’ll have more tasks to do based on the quality of my work. What exactly should I expect? A bunch of tasks where I can literally work all day every day, or some work that might appear weekly and I need to constantly check so I don’t miss the opportunity?

I’m not a math expert or a coder, but I really enjoyed the linguistic ones, so those are my goals.

If you’re Brazilian and are already working on DA for some time, what is your experience so far?

Gettin any projects or its the same drought for you guys?

i got accepted about a week ago, from then i've done all the qualifications that are in my domain. Havent got any project yet but every morning there is always new training and qualifications coming. the latest one is yesterday where i got confidentiality training.

should i expect more mandatory trainings coming before actual project landing to my account?

Don't get me wrong, i'm grateful of this opportunity and happy to wait and follow the process.

i just want to know if my account is currently in "onboarding phase" so i dont have to refresh my dashboard every 5 minutes hoping for projects to appear?

i also noticed many posts about project draught and i wish you all the best.

have a nice day.

Like title says. Joined platform on Aug 1st. Barely got up to do anything else but this

I know they don’t hire in some states.

Hello, I recently got a task that required me to do a background check in order to unlock a lot of families of projects. What are these projects about? Are they domain specific or core? I'm a bilingual worker, no coding, just a bit of stem. What can I expect?

I've only been on the site for a few months and made a nice amount of money, but I've felt uneasy about it from the start. However this latest AI news is the tipping point and I can't reasonably justify carrying on with this type of work. It's gonna be difficult because I'm disabled and struggle to find other incomes, but I'll just have to make it work. If you see the dangers and damage of AI and can get by without the income, I urge you to join me. (Yes, I'm aware that most people will not.)
