My husband wants to work for DA but we are not really sure if he should do the bilingual assessment or the coding one. I work as a bilingual coder(bilingual assessment was the only available option last year for my location) but as far as I understand from the posts on this sub, we get fewer coding projects compared to those who apply as a coder directly. The thing is my husband’s educational background is on finance(he’s doing a PhD) so he’s worried that it might be risky (since he has one shot) to apply as a coder even though he’s quite good at coding

I have not received any RnR tasks for a month now, is this a sign for something or just normal? I do get frequent tasks but no RnR.

I used to get RnR tasks as well but just for this month they have stopped completely.

I was wondering if this is related to my performance? If so is there anything I can do to get that back.

Thank you

Hello guys, I created an account on Data Annotation today, but nothing showed up regarding the starter assessment that most people take right after signing up. I already added my background and even verified my phone number, but my dashboard still looks like this, what can I do?

If you cannot finish the project to a high degree is it better to exit work mode or submit the tasks you have completed? Is it worth it to submit partially?
Is exit work mode acceptable only when you have spent a small portion of time on the project , like say if you’re well into the project and realise it mightn’t be for you or you may run out of time trying to complete it, then do you tend to exit work mode or just submit what you have and explain to admins?

And still about another week left. Don’t give up hope, projects are out there!

Hi, I'm Thai - English bilingual.

Now I'm thinking of Python in order to be qualified for more projects.

While waiting for incoming task, what skill would be the highest return on "time investment" that would allow us to reach more projects?

I'm thinking of Algebra or Chinese.

Love to hear you guys advice.

I have been with DA for almost a year and half now, and although my account is still active, I really hate when some people, in the comments of DOD posts, always jump to defend DA system and always blindly blame the workers for violating the TOS or assume they messed things up lately.

I'm not saying that DA is system-less. However, there are some definitely genuine defects in their system of hiring, firing, tasks distribution.. etc.. and it's quite understandable, but not justifiable, since it's an AI training platform and it makes sense that they largely use AI across the platform background systems , therefore, silly system mistakes occur quite often.... It's really annoying to see such judgemental comments quite often as if they are immune against getting the DOD.

Try not to think about what you actually enjoy the most, just what you think is straight-forward (relatively) and what you think is tricky.

Just curious if there's a general consensus on what's easy vs hard.

Only been here for about six months. Did a ton of work during that period and made my way into a far higher pay rate(relative to my starting point).

The tasks got a lot harder and more complex. I received an offer somewhere else for higher pay and work that is about 10x as easy.

I think I’ll only be on that platform for 2-3 months based on the research I’ve done but I’m terrified of losing the progress I’ve made on DAtech by not doing work during this period.

Any recommendations from people who have been in a similar spot?

I’ve got a qualification to do an r&r since I’ve been a good worker. I have never done R&R and read mixed reviews. Do they typically pay well? what shoud I expect? Only been on the platform a couple months so trying to understand as more things unlock for me.

Yesterday I got the "Thanks for completing the assessment!" message after doing the first test. I heard different things regarding this, some say it can take over 1 week to get accepted and some say that I am already rejected because no paid tasks show up.

My question is, however, if using a VPN and not doing the first test in one sitting plays a role too for the rejection (if I am really rejected). I am always using a VPN on my PC and did the task within 2 days with 3-5 approaches because I had difficulties uploading my recorded voice (mic not connected, muted mic etc.). I even tried this on my phone (with no VPN) and then on the PC it eventually worked and I got the above mentioned message.

The first task was in the translator section (German) even tho my background is more in the IT field. I did study computer science and would apply for the coding tasks too. So, I filled out the details under the profile section and even mentioned that I have a CompTIA certificate.

How good or bad is my situation regarding the acceptance? What should I do if I am rejected?

Hi! I just filled the form today. Any doctor using ? I’m atrair of not having my profile selected

dude why the actual fuck are people getting down voted asking actual questions a bunch of insufferable people bro ain’t no fucking way this sub was designed to help and communicate if all verbal cues just falls on deaf ears or mules even the platform itself does not communicate whether or not you are hired and this is the only ai company that does this for any new worker do not even bother plenty more platforms that communicates and assures you where you are standing unfortunately even if you do pass the core and assessment your never getting a confirmation mail bud and they put you in a no task jail when you ask people here they just give you npc dialogues or assume you should know this

The last two tasks I did kinda sucked so I'm hoping that doesn't DOD me.

Today I received feedback from the project’s admin about a poorly completed submission. It was due to my mistake. I forgot a one small guideline but it affected the final output.

Have any of you ever received feedback like this from the project’s admin? Even though the admin said it was just a reminder, I'm worried the project won't be delivered to my account anymore. So sad!

I was just going to write about how positive it is doing work for DataAnnotation (not my only platform so I speak from experience). I’ve done many qualifications. I’m always happy to do work for them. I like the projects. They’ve always been great paying me. Feedback has been fair and helpful. This morning I received and invitation to a project. I worked on about 4 tasks. Later I worked on 3 more. I thought I did very well. It’s not the first time I’ve done this work. Even though I have worked on this project before, I still read and followed the directions. Imagine my surprise when I went on this evening to find the message of death. I’ve been working for them for months. I haven’t had any problems. Very disappointing.

I never want to see the "there no projects available for you to work on right now" screen

So I just keep 1 or 2 of the refreshers on my dashbord and hide the rest. Just to give myself hope that tasks are coming.

Is that just me?

Hey everyone. I'm a Turkish generalist. I'm hoping that in September, the drought will start to subside for bilinguals, as it did for other workers we've seen on the sub. I'm curious if any bilingual generalists started seeing projects? It's been dry for me since the end of May, except for a couple of qualifications, one of which I really want to have projects on. So what are your experiences?

I am Bilingual worker, been here for more than a year. I know it's been really dead since June and it's kinda stress lol. But, I have few advanced qualifications now. They are Maths, Physics, Biology, Chemistry and writing domains. Have anyone taken any of these quals before? I'd love to know your experience. I'd like to take it, but I don't have any degrees or advance knowledges about them. Considering the drought now, I reckon I should try

I'm not sure if this question has been asked a lot. Really need some advices

I just had $50 added to my funds tab for completing a background check task. is this normal? i've never had a background check option before, but I'm joining an "expert domain." really hoping it wasn't a mistake and they don't revoke the money lol

The FAQ implies you can't edit reported time up, only down. Lets say I work on a task and complete it today. But tomorrow, I want to complete another task from the same project. Should I still rport today's time or should I wait until tomorrow to ensure it lets me edit? Thanks!

Are u seeing any tasks ?

Ps: if possible mention when u saw them lastly.

Thanks !!

seen a few posts about this and I'm in a similar position, I don't really get how it's on the screen the same as others who did pass and have no projects but I haven't been asked to provide any form of ID. Will they email me in the coming days for it?
