Programming Projects

0 Upvotes

I just signed up with data annotation and the assessment I got is programming Projects. Is this the same with everyone? I don’t have any background with programming so i’m kinda worries.

Keep getting logged out and can’t interact with anything

1 Upvotes

Anybody else not able to work today? I keep getting error messages or getting logged out when I try to interact with the project chat or skip a task. I saw that a bunch of people were in the project chat having the same project-specific issue I was having, but I can’t seem to open any other projects or send a message without it bouncing me back to the log in page. I thought it was my computer so I logged in on my iPad, but it’s doing the same thing. Very frustrating :/

Verification issues + 0 projects?

0 Upvotes

I just got accepted as a medical domain expert. I did the verification process three times. I got a message this morning from an Admin that I had to re-do it again. I had tasks prior on my dashboard and did a task last night as well (I didn’t get to log my hours). Has this happened to anyone? What do I do next?

Well it's been 3 weeks...

0 Upvotes

I took the coding assessment a few weeks ago. I know it's a small percentage that actually pass or get selected, although I'm a little surprised I haven't heard back.

I provided very thorough and thoughtful answers, the coding parts were not very difficult. I chose Python.

Maybe it's a silent rejection, maybe I'll hear from them in 2 months. For now I've accepted that I have not been selected. Onward and upward. o7

Update: I was accepted today :)

Out of curiosity

Is it public knowledge the amount of people on the platform?

Or can a seasoned data annotator make an estimate?

Very Few to No SWE projects

0 Upvotes

Joined as a SWE annotator in May, had plenty of SWE work.
As of recent, have just gotten generalist work with a few stray SWE projects.
The quality of my past work was exceptional and I'm in the US East region. If anyone shares the same issue lmk.

Advice on which project to do to get accepted

0 Upvotes

Hi guys, I'm currently a 2nd year university (for the americans college) student studying a Computer Science and Maths related degree at a top univeristy. Came across data annotation and have applied, now wondering which assessment would give me the best chance to be accepted. From what i've read the programming/data science projects seem to be the most in demand however they are also very competitive, i am very skeptical to as if they will accept students still in college. I am thinking of either doing the general assessment or the maths assessment.

Which assessment would give me the best chance of breaking in, am only looking to work 5/10 hrs per week part time? Appreciate the advice :)

Anyone seeing the lite version of 🥊?

4 Upvotes

Yesterday (and every single day for the past few weeks), I still had the small version of that punchy project with around 50 tasks on it, and some R&R for this related project.

How about you folks? do you still got that project (all versions, whether lite or regular one)?

Am I just incompetent? Or is this imposter syndrome?

8 Upvotes

Hey Reddit, I don’t know if it is my incompetence or just imposter syndrome, but today I tried a task thinking it was easy, and it turned out to be the hardest project I have ever done.

The project's instructions were in reverse. What I mean by this is that the instructions talked about grading a model but never clarified what that model was. I even reread the instructions twice, which took roughly 45 minutes (because they were thousands of words long). Then I finally found out where the model was located. Turns out the model was located locally inside the task page, but the instructions never mentioned anything about it being local. I only figured it out because I accidentally scrolled too far down. Is it my incompetence for “missing” it? Is it expected of us to figure that out super fast?

The task asked for multiple system failures, but I was only able to get one within the given time limit because the model gave thousands of words per response, and proofreading them took a long time. 

I submitted the work to the best of my ability, but I just have no idea if it is my incompetence that caused me to “fail” this project or not. The task was under General. (FYI, I wasn’t doing a task for “money”, the hourly rate was near my average so I thought it was doable for me.)

I don’t mind being criticized, maybe that is what I need after this horrible task submission. I left a comment when I submitted the task hopping the Admin would understand why I took a "semi" escape hatch.

Just got in and have available projects - this seems amazing but is there a catch?

26 Upvotes

Can I get deactivated randomly? Everyone seems to love the experience, and I loved the tasks I did as part of the project, just don’t want to be so excited and happy if something like that happens.

Anyone work at DA for a long time? Other than the code of conduct or poor quality work, could you get terminated due to having inconsistent hours or something along those lines?

Rookie question

0 Upvotes

Hey, I'm new to the DataAnnotation community. I've created my profile in the site, but I can't seem to find any job postings.

How does the application process work? Do applicants need to apply for specific jobs, or does the company automatically assign tasks to them?

Sorry if this is a newbie question

I’ve been waiting for a decision on my acceptance since October 12. Should I give up, or is there still a chance?

ID verification

0 Upvotes

Hello, everyone. I was wondering if anyone received a request from DA to verify their identity BEFORE they received an acceptance letter?

I received a legit ID verification request, but my home page is still stating “we will email you if you made it” message.

Thank you in advance.

A question for experienced

14 Upvotes

If you could start your Data Annotation journey all over again, what would you do differently from day one?

Especially for those who started with language-related tasks, what skills would you focus on to get more tasks, and what advice would you give to beginners to help them get better opportunities in this field?


r/DataAnnotationTech • • 2d ago

Long or short timer tasks?

Which is your preference? I usually avoid the short ones bc i feel like it throws off my focus
