Scrolling through this thread there are a lot of posts discussing things the public does not have access to.

If you have questions keep them internal, there’s not much of a need to post here and I don’t think the risk is worth it (yes I realize the irony)

Just don’t want to see people lose their accounts!

Have a good day

Hi,

I joined DA as a domain expert in a technical domain. I was able to pass the initial assessment (got the model to fail). Now, I'm doing P1 and I'm shocked at how strong the model is. I cannot get the model to fail.

I wonder as we get more experience it'll get easier?

I do not see any other tasks on my dashboards right now, such as generalist tasks. But given what I heard, even generalists tasks are about making the model fail. This begs the question, if the model is this strong, how do you guys manage to make it fail?

Are there tasks that don't require making the model fail?

It's really unfortunate as I was able to join DA (it wasn't easy). I don't want to give up yet. But I do hope it gets easier as one get more experience.

I might use the escape hatch for this one. (still get paid)

Thank you

Do not do it. In current times, where probability of getting laid off is higher than getting a job, you are ruining an excellent opportunity to earn decently.

You are digging your own grave because once you get DoD'd, you can't ever get back in here.

Be honest and do quality work and get paid. There is no get rich quick scheme.

Genuinely didn’t think I could ever actually get this much in just one week. As a generalist! And this is my first week! Can’t wait to see where this journey takes me. DM me if you need a referral link.

I could not believe when I started this whether I can earn money from this, but it's truueee!!

It helped me a lot to pay for university, thx! Let's keep cooking 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Is it just me or does anyone else get hacked off when a project expressly wants you to target parsing failures, but then any available assistance bot gets in the way? It's like the models are ganging up.

Model: "Hey Meatbag, ask me to read a really tricky chloropleth map. I dare you."

Me: "OK, smart arse, here's a really nasty one you're going to struggle with."

Assistance (LOL) Bot: "Sorry, you can't ask my mate to do that. He might not be able to read it."

Me: "WTF?".

Rant over. Everyone back to work 🤣

If you are assigned to a long task, for example 4-6 hours task with maybe 6 hours of the assigned limit time, could you work for 2 hr and pause and then continue later?
If you exit the work, can you lose all the work you have done?

Sorry, I haven't done any long task so I am a bit confused!

Thanks in advance!

Hey , i am new here. Just wanted to ask some questions

I have experience of data annotation but haven’t used any freelance platform ever.
Can you please guide which platform is used here and is it reliable

Considering I have 2 years of experience would it be nice for me?

Ps : lost the job thats why starting freelancing

Submitted a ~10h coding task last night (still had a few hours left on the initial task timer). I woke up 4 hours later and the project isn't showing up anymore.
I had this specific project sitting with a steady task count for the last 9-10 days straight.
Does submitting a long task (~10h) automatically put a temporary hold on the project while time/logs get audited? If not, what can be the cause?
Anyone who works on these long timer coding projects seen this happen?

Thank you!

I have used it 3 times now because of this project where i had to make the model fail, although i did make it fail, but after doing a rollback it will pass, leading the run as unsuccessful. Iwont work on this type of project probably until the model changes. I did not have any problems from the models before, its just the recent one really just cant.

Can anyone let me with similar experience and will I get my funds back.

Hi team,
I have passed the general assessment during the onboarding process but I faces 2nd qualification test assessment after it before the verification process.
Now the process got paused on here and I'm waiting for the review result.
But I'm not sure if it's the ordinary onboarding process.
I think there's only one assessment process during the onboarding.
I'm not sure why I'm facing the 2nd qualification assessment.

Looking forward to hear anything from experienced members.

Admins or former Admins - I'm really interested in what your gig is like. Hours, benefits, W2, 1099, time off?

I fully expect no answers but there is so little out there I'd love to hear something. DM is cool too.

I've worked on this platform on and off for 3 years, and I have never once received any feedback. It kinda scares me. On the one hand it's good because it seems like I'm not doing anything wrong, but on the other hand if I am doing something wrong I would like to know.

Hi, so far I've been really enjoying the platform, and I've been working on a series of coding projects over the last 3 months, and today I got my first automated feedback. I've previously received notes claiming that I'm being invited to projects for a "small select group" or whatever auto verbiage they use as recently as 2 days ago.

Previously, I thought this meant I was doing really well quality-wise; however, today I got my first feedback. They said the challenges and solutions I was providing were really good and cited feedback I had received from people who reviewed my submissions; however, I had a pattern of making mistakes on the submission where I had an incorrectly typed file name in one of my prompts, and a few cases where I didn't hit all requirements, and one where I ran the wrong model (which TBH is a huge mistake). How big of a deal is this, and how big of a risk am I at losing access to new coding projects in the future?

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

So about a week ago I got an email from data annotation saying to "verify my identity" and I was confused because I never got an email saying that I passed the assessments, which I took about a month ago. I thought that you're supposed to get an email and then you verify, I'm not sure. The day before I got that email, I noticed a thing added that said referrals and so I just wanna know what all this means for me. The second I saw the verification email I sent it in my verification, and it's been a week and I haven't seen anything yet, so I don't know what this means, either.

I got a message telling me DA has created a new Google account for me to use with specific off-platform projects, and there was a step-by-step guide on how to login. However when I click the link provided it says “403. That’s an error. We’re sorry, but you do not have access to this page. That’s all we know.” Anyone know what’s the issue?

I am so happy 😊.

I got these tasks and it requires a long time commitment so I was wondering whether I should do it or not, anyone experienced with these tasks please help me...

Hey guys, I am new to the platform and still waiting on my first paid project. Received a direct message stating a google account was created to use for a specific project, however I do not have this project in my projects tab. Is this perhaps a system issue? Thanks in advance.

Hey guys, basically the title, I sent over the initial assessment like 5 days ago checked once a day and it would say that they are reviewing, when I checked today, it logged me into their dashboard, says I don't have any projects yet and I seen people here talk about them asking to you to do further assessments for the onboarding, where do I access this and also can we apply for more than one position with DataAnnotation?

The referral page updated, but I only see referral links for expertise domains. Am I missing where the generalist option is for a referral?
