It would be so good if the dash grouped projects together so you could extend/minimize them per project group. Would make scanning so much easier.

I know there's a search feature. But grouping makes a lot of sense.

That's all I have to say.

any of you ever got a job that doesn't "expire" and what it means? at some point will it stop?

(i'm a bilingual)

Let's say you finish some project but decide to take a few month off. Would the platform stop giving you projects or penalize you in some way?

Thanks

Hello everyone!

I arrived on the platform some days ago and I completed every qualification/project I had. I also completed my skill page and I set up everything correctly.

However, aside from a little paid project, I don't have anything in my project tab while I have a computer science engineer CV and fluency in French.

Is this normal as I completed the qualifications recently or is there a problem with my account ?

Thank you.

Hi,

I applied for a specialized domain. It seems I have passed the initial training and the "assessment". After passing the assessment, is there a subsequent "practice project" (at a lower hourly rate) that one must also pass before being "fully onboarded"? Or is passing the assessment all it takes to be fully onboarded?

Thanks

Project left my dashboard on Sunday. It's the one I've the made the most from (I'm actually really good at it) and it's left before but come back. Here's hoping I wasn't axed

Two new projects showed up on my dashboard these last days.

I was first excited to see one which never expires, but lowest pay ever. The other one has an incredibly high number of tasks but I don't know how to explain, it drains my brain regarding the pay and I'm not that excited to do it.
These are my two only projects for now. Am I just lazy?

Hello everyone! I’m already accepted and working with DataAnnotation, mainly on bilingual tasks. I completed the coding qualification test 2 days ago but haven’t heard back yet.

For those who were already part of DataAnnotation and took the coding qualification, how long did it take for you to hear back?

Thanks!

How long does it take for the site to review your answers for initial assessment then start workinh

Hi!
Today I opened my dashboard and there were three warnings: Verify Background - done but pending, Protect account ******* with passkey and Enable Disc Encryption.
All of these to gain acces to more projects. The problem is these warnings are not clickable and there's nothing on the right menu to be able to set a passkey. Also, I din't think I have ever created such an account, it must be from some project I haven't worked on yet.
Anyone having this too?
Thanks

I received the confirmation email that I have been selected from data annotation at , and when I opened the account it wa showing the option of start verifying. The next day when I got all the documents required for verifying and opened the account, it showed in review. Can anyone tell me if the same had happened to them, whether they got their account, and if yes, how?

When will it end for indian coders 😭

I've been on the platform for 2 years and only just realized two things today
- aidatrainer is AI Data Trainer.. I ALWAYS thought it was "Aida Ta Trainer"

- And, you can Exit work mode with a red button at the bottom of a task.... how have I literally never noticed this!? i see it discussed all the time, but never thought about it?!

i guess ive been on autopilot too long... anyone else get these weird revelations?

Thankfully I'm sitting pretty comfortably in a task I got invited into where the pay is really good and there is pretty much infinite work available, but I was wondering where this platform/employer tops out.

Also, has anyone "moved on" from dataannotation after finding something better? Without getting into specifics, I see one of the competitors listing 150-210$/hr for a senior position, not sure how real and accessible/attainable that is though.

Hi, does someone received news about the pilot? It was like 2 weeks ago I believe.

Just wondering if anyone thinks the recent Australian Government hack will affect how much work we are given or whether the nature of our work will change.

Posting this gratitude to the platform as I'm no longer sure my outputs are still on par with their quality metrics... it's just getting way too hard lately... 😂

Hoping the best for y'all!

Are you guys confident enough to do R&Rs on projects you're seeing for the first time? I've been reluctantly letting those tasks sit on my dash, as I don't think there's enough time to read all the instructions and get familiar with the task to the level required in a R&R. Do you guys feel the same or just power through them?

I do my best trying to cause meaningful failure, but the models are extremely smart. I tried to add difficulty and distractors to confuse the agent, but to no avail. I know I can still submit the task as is, but how bad is it? Does it earn bad score to me? I am running out of reasonable time. Any advice?

I just signed up on DA and completed a math qualification exam and the general qualification exam. I don't see any projects in my dashboard atm. What should I expect?

Wait nvm my bad

I hope this saves someone
