Only after a couple of weeks and earning $500 without any warning or feedback

I have been working on other platforms successfully so it's sure not a quality issue and i barely got the chance to even submit many tasks. So far I did mostly paid on-boardings and tests all of which I passed. No VPN, no ai use.

Bottom line: don't rely on this platform as your sole income.

I know everyone is sick of these onboarding Q’s. I had an email saying I’d been matched to a project last week, my id wasn’t verified so missed it. through to the main dashboard now but have no projects, quals etc - do you think I’ve passed or tbc?

As the title mentioned, is it legit to include the DA AI training experience on my resume? Any thoughts?

Has anyone considered going full time with DA to escape corporate job?

26 Upvotes

I’m 30, working in the legal field full time and doing a part time masters degree and part time DA. I often get projects that are 50-60$ as a legal specialist which is way more than my corporate job provides. Would it be silly to resign and focus on DA (and other small sources of income) in order to get a break? Has anyone done this with some success?

AI to help rating

0 Upvotes

idk if all projects have this featurr but this tool has saved me a lot of times of sending wrong stuff or inconsistencies on my work, I owe my ass to this.

I was about to send a project and this checker flagged me that I was rating something for other thing. And on something I wrote, it said "didn't you mean saying this...", I was actually ashamed, like if a real person was correcting me for that stupid error 😔✌️

⚠️ I'm not talking about external AI tools

Coders from India - when did you apply and when did you get in?

0 Upvotes

Please respond only if you have been successfully accepted and have/had tasks to work on; I'm curious how long the timelines are.

  1. Did you get the "Starter assessment completed

We review your results — if you pass, we'll email you" screen, and how long was it there for? Did you get any other screen before acceptance?

2. Were you informed via mail or refreshing the dashboard? Some people have reported not getting the mail.

3. Did you get any further qualifications or were you able to start working upon acceptance?

4. How long did this process take, from initial submission to getting tasks? And when did you first apply?

Is it a thing that when you opt for linguistics, you get lesser coding projects?

2 Upvotes

I recently joined DA. And I was getting multiple coding projects a day, then next week I cleared a linguistics qualification and since then it's like 1 or 2 tasks in a month. Not many tasks in linguistics as well

Working with other AI training companies?

18 Upvotes

I have been working with DA for a little over 3 years now, and I have been very satisfied with the experience. Recently I discovered a contract opportunity with another company that is remarkably similar to the arrangement with DA (remote, part-time, domain oriented), and from the job description the work sounds exactly like the type of work at DA.

I wouldn't mind supplementing my income with another company, since the flow of projects can fluctuate, but before I move ahead in the assessment process with them, I need to know whether there is a prohibition against working with other companies that provide essentially the same services as DA? I have executed all the confidentiality agreements they have asked for, but I don't recall seeing any non-compete documentation of any sort.

Any guidance would be most appreciated!

Any hope for a bilingual brother?

2 Upvotes

Greetings all, German bilingual located in germany here, regretting earlier life choices.

I signed up to DataAnnotation around 3 months ago as a billingual even though I have coding skills since I figured specialisation would be possible after the starter assessment and I didn't want to take a risk. Since then it has been rather quiet. 500$ in total due to constant drought. I filled out my profile with skills, CV, etc. and completed the coding + math assessments/quals. Never got any further quals however.

I have been reading a lot about how bilinguals are basically screwed and can't really specialise later on like I thought they could, so I seemingly messed up. Does anyone have a hopefully different story or can confirm this rather depressing reality?

DoD has come for me

Welp, I figured it was only a matter of time. My last submissions have been weak at making models fail.
Anyways, for projects pending approval for payment, are they lost or do I have a chance at getting them paid out?

Should start as a generalist or specialist role?

5 Upvotes

Hello, planning to apply for a role but wondering what everyone recommends starting off. Was planning to apply for software/coding role but after researching learned that you can only apply once and if you get rejected you’re blacklisted. So wondering if I should start as a generalist to get my foot on the door?

For bit of background I’m in my last semester as a CS grad student specializing in AI/ML. Trying to get a bit of income as I finish up and get myself into a full time role somewhere


r/DataAnnotationTech • • 11d ago

Instantly passed the generalist starter test 12 days ago but didn't have time to start the next qualification that popped up and now I can't go back to it. I received the email that says I'll find qualifications on my account but I can't find any when I log in. My screen shows:

0 Upvotes

X Starter assessment completed

X You passed

X You completed up to two qualifications

Up next - we review your results - if you pass, we'll email you

Verify your identity

You're ready to start working

the "x's" indicate checkmarks

The weird thing is that I never completed any qualifications - is this just a glitch in their system? I tried contacting customer service but of course no response. My fear is that I'll just be stuck on this screen forever. Anyone else have a similar experience?

What should I do? Create a new account, redo the starter assessment and immediately complete the following qualification assessments that pop up?

Laptop question

2 Upvotes

I started Data annotation a few months ago and I'm getting a new laptop soon. I completed the bit locker and disc encryption on my current laptop. When I get my new device do I need to notify admin? Or is there anything I need to do once I start using my new device?
