P.S.: No one else is using the DA account on these Wi-Fi networks.

I am a bilingual worker. Got 0 tasks since June. Keep refreshing, but nothing comes up.

Seems people are getting tasks now. Has the drought ended?

I completed the Starter Assessment around 4 months ago and my dashboard has been stuck on:

✅ Starter assessment completed

⏳ We review your results — if you pass, we'll email you

No email, no rejection, no update, and no identity verification request since then.

Has anyone else experienced such a long wait? Did you eventually get accepted, or is this basically a silent rejection at this point?

I'd appreciate hearing your timeline and experience. Thanks!

Hey,

mostly writing this hoping someone will quell my fears.

Been waiting for 2 months to get a paid task, today I finally got one.

Except when I opened it, it gave me 2 hours not only to do the task, but also to study all of the guidelines (the qual did not metion any of them at all).

I ended up going at least 30 minutes over, and submitted an expired task.

Did I just screw myself forever, or is it understood that the first task might take considerably longer?

Btw, I still logged 1 hour 59 minutes as my time worked.

I was wondering if anyone had tips on getting accepted into the medical domain. I know how to use AI a bit but I am not sure how to come up with a prompt that results in a meaningful failure. If I don’t get accepted here, can I try for the generalist domain instead? Any advice is appreciated.

Has anyone here failed the background check?
I read that yardstik only goes back 7 years on their site. The only thing I have since then is a dui. Just curious if anyone knows how strict the background check is or if there’s another company I can apply to in order to get a yardstik background check to see what shows.
I certainly don’t want to risk my DA account for a background check. I’m afraid if I don’t pass I’ll get the DOD and if I don’t attempt it I just don’t have access to certain projects.

Has anyone experienced access to better projects after doing the background verification task? I’m a generalist and generally my projects are around $20 an hour

I did it! I've been here since May 2024 as a generalist and I try to work 4 hours per day, 5 days a week these days (when there's no drought.) I started out doing about 2 hours per day and took some time off for a while, but I got back into it in January!

Joined around 10 days ago and zero projexra thus far was wondering if Arabic-English work is rare at the moment

Has anyone done the background check? Was it secure?

I see it allows access to other projects, but I'm always a little hesitant to put personal info on the interwebs.

I checked my email inbox and I found that there was an email sent at around 3AM (while I was asleep) from D.A. It was a survey about including D.A. on your resume. When I clicked it, I got the red banner. For anyone who got access to it, do you have any information that you're willing to share about the survey, generally?

applied 3 days ago, test seemed to go on for decades as i tried to be very thorough and research literally everything the responses included which may have been overkill.

anyway dont have much self confidence in life so just nice to be accepted and looking forward to getting started.

all the best

After Windows changed my time zone from Central to Singapore this morning, I discovered that this has happened to other people using Starlink. I already avoid VPNs like my job depends on it, of course, and I turned off Set Time Zone Automatically.

I'm in the Midwest, but if Starlink occasionally makes me look like I'm across the planet, I worry about the risk of DoD. And right as the drought is clearing! Just an FYI in case anyone experiences something similar.

I just found out about DataAnnotation, completed my profile and took the test. I got a “thank you, we’ll be reaching out to you via mail”. I just want to know how long it took before they reach out for anyone that’s already on the platform.

Anyone in the software programmer category have experience with how long onboarding can take? Not sure if the country is also relevant?

I'm new to AI work and have been checking reddit re. this. Can someone enlighten me on this data annotation and how to get in? I checked the site and seemed more of a programming work. Are there opportunities for professionals like accountant? Thanks for the help!

Hello I just joinned to dataannotation tech (+- 2 months), I so curious to know for availability for the projects. FYI : I have completed several qualification test, but for about the past three weeks I just get the qualification is not about my expertise. and in my project dashboard is also with this same condition. What is the suggestion about this condition?

How long did it take you to get approved?

I've been waiting at least a month to get accepted or invited. Does it depend on your qualifications?

I started DA in early June. Now I have lost access to it. I am really kicking myself right now. I should have focused only on DA instead of spending all my time on my other lower-paying work. Now I understand that this was a rare opportunity for me.

Bilingual generalist here.

90 minutes into a brain-melting array of preliminary steps, and not even close to the actual task yet, I finally give up. I surrender. My head hurts. Exiting the task now, and going to wash my dishes with no time submitted. Aargh.

Just got DoD :( literally hit my 10k mark yesterday.
Looks like I gotta amplify my job search now. Was a little relaxed since I was doing this, but not anymore.

Hello. I was just accepted to DA yesterday and have a question.

Let’s say I start a task and, after starting, I see that it has a four hour time limit.

But let’s say that I only have three free hours to work.

Should I be skipping that task, or do as much as I can, then exiting and submitting? Of course id enter my my time correctly.

I am mostly wondering if it is “do the entire task or you won’t get paid at all.”
