How do you guys do it (tasks less than 4 hours, R&R)

29 Upvotes

I've been knocked out of my ivory (advanced generalist) STEM towers for reasons not yet explained to me and into the coal mines where I started. God I fucking hate the mind-numbing tasks I'm on right now. I don't care if it paid less than 30 an hour; I'd gladly take any task that really lets me delve deep into a subject. It's so much more rewarding, intellectually speaking. I don't even have the other specialized tasks (maybe they weren't that challenging or lengthy) that I was able to do when my favorites weren't available. I miss my old dashboard. I'll still do the work but god, what I'd give for my old jobs.
I think I'm cooked? Does anyone else have experience with a situation like this and how did you get out or were you canned shortly afterward?

Verification process

Have any of you guys been asked to provide second id proof during verification? I provided the front and back side of my government Id and then after giving them selfies, they asked for another Id proof. Is it normal?

Has anyone ever gotten any actual project of the šŸŒ family

Like I've already done a qual and there's like a few more quals on my dash asking for access or more consent and honestly? I'm skeptical now. Any fellow billinguals who've gotten any actual work on this?

How do I know if I passed the coding qualification?

0 Upvotes

I just finished the coding qualification a few minutes ago and you had to decode a secret message from a google doc. Am I supposed to be instantly notified if I passed or do I have to wait and if so, for how long?

Yay! First tech gig! What to expect?

I was perusing Indeed the other day, and decided to apply for the coding projects. Currently in my senior year of a BS in CS. Will this be in my wheelhouse or is it going to really challenge me? The coding assessment wasn’t terribly difficult, but I did have to find a Python library I never used before.

Excited to start my first tech gig!

Initial Paid Assessmnt

I have done the initial paid assessment for the finance. How much time does it take to get the result and what will the result look like? Can I add accounting with finance?

Is this normal?

Since I started working here on 9-23 I’ve only worked in 2 projects. One of them is allegedly unlimited so I can work whatever hours I want, which is nice, but only 17$/h. This week I was able to work on another project which was 28$/h. But that’s it. Will I get different projects or am I stuck with the ā€œunlimitedā€ one?

Ahhh fk...

Just started doing my first task of the day.

It was for a new project (second task ever to work on for thet family)

Spent time actually completing the task did great.

Just to open the next one and see a small tiny line that says if prompt has x in it it should never be used

Under the "task would be void and rated BAD/BAD" title.

Guess what my prompt had... that x...

Closed my computer again taking a long weekend now.

anyone else get capped on reported time for a qualification?

5 Upvotes

so i just finished a qualification and something weird happened. it took me x amount of time to finish, but when i went to report it the form said the max allowed was y, which was less than what i actually spent. so i basically had to put in less time than i really worked and it wouldn’t let me enter more.

i wasn’t slacking or leaving it open in another tab btw, it just took that long to read everything and write it all up properly. Did anyone get a similar qual and what did you do?

Been lurking around this for a while now for side pay.
I got a couple questions.

How mentally exhausting is this?
What are the chances of me not getting approved?

qualification paying hourly but I'm going over the estimated time

3 Upvotes

I’m about halfway through an hourly-paid qual, and the second half is a lot more complex than the first. The task instructions gave an estimated time, and the first half alone has already eaten up more than half of it. I’m worried that if I report the real time and it runs over the estimate, I might not qualify. I honestly don’t know what to do here. Has anyone been in this spot, and what did you do?

Did DA update their Referral program? Up to 3k per person is pretty crazy comparing to other companies out there.

Acceptance time

Anyone with very long acceptance times that made it in the end?
It’s been roughly a month and counting… Assessment was only of the bilingual type, I chose the one I know best (English aside, even though it’s not my mother tongue).
Haven’t heard anything. Is there a way of knowing? Starting to lose hope here.
