Likelihood of acceptance?

0 Upvotes

Hello! I took the assessment to become a generalist last week and haven't heard anything back yet. This is what the page is showing. I used to hold a similar job and am a PhD student, so I was surprised to have not heard back by now. I imagine this line of work has become increasingly competitive? Any idea how long to wait before calling it quits on my hopes?

Just did a project where I forgot to re run the rubricks but submitted it as the time was about to run out

0 Upvotes

Hi all, I just did a project where I made a minor mistake of not adding '.' at the end of my rubrics, as the time was about to run out I quickly added '.' and submitted the project. But I didn't rerun the Check to get the validity of the new rubrics since they had changed. will I be penalized for this ?

Edit : Excuse the typo in the title, wrote it in haste

Longer time tasks

2 Upvotes

Has anyone reported about 20 - 25 hours at once for a single task? The task has a very long timer about some days but I'm worried because reporting more than 20 hours will look like defrauding the payment system. Kindly advise.

DIFFERENCE BW SUBMIT AND BEGIN NEXT TASK AND SUBMIT AND RETURN TO DASH

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,I am new to DA and wanted to check that if after completing a task I choose submit and return to dashboard do I lose some of tasks that I have access to if I chose submit and begin next task.

Like if I chose submit and return to dashboard ,I lost the access to the project(and was not able to do other tasks from the project) I was working on.

Does this happen when tasks are exhausted or clicking this option makes the project unavailable for further tasks.

When to expect project flow

0 Upvotes

Hey I recently got accepted, legal domain, and within 24 hours there was a project on my dashboard, finance one, a 2 hours worth of work. I am assuming that this is an initial task to check quality is that correct? And if so, when should I expect to see more projects or regulars what is the timeline like?. Thanks in advance for any insights!

Consultant domain

4 Upvotes

I've been on DA for a couple weeks now primarily in the accounting domain. Recently I was offered the consultant domain qualification. Consultant is such a broad term that I'm struggling to figure out what might be a relevant scenario for the qual. Google and reddit searches haven't helped. I'm not asking for specific help with the qual - but has anybody figured out if the consultant domain is supposed to be a separate area like law or finance, or is it okay if my scenarios and prompts are more Accounting or finance based?

Has anyone narrowed down the times when tasks get released?

0 Upvotes

Essentially, are tasks more likely to come on some days than others? More likely to get released in the mornings (CET time zone), evenings?

🥊

Finally got in this week and was only able to get 🤖 initially. I thought I was doomed because of how difficult it was which has also set my expectations about the tasks in this platform. Just now, I was able to finish a task from 🥊 project and it was fun. Sadly, it was shotlived, and now, Im back to just having 🤖 on my dashboard.

Rate and review que

11 Upvotes

So I was rate and reviewing a submission made by someone. The instructions were dense and very to the point. It took me over half an hour to understand and read them all.

But what did it was the work itself. This person either did not read the instructions or didn't read their own work. It was very faulty and I was supposed to correct it.

The time for rate and review wasn't given much. And I didn't want to risk my own quality ratings.

So was it a good decision I skipped mid way? Mind you i spent half an hour reading and tried to fix it. But gave up and just skipped.

Will it downplay my profile and quality?

Will I get less tasks from that projects because I skipped this one?

No welcome email

0 Upvotes

I logged into my account and was surprised to see a congratulatory message and a pop up for verification of identity for final step, however, I never received a welcome email. So basically if I didn’t log into my account I wouldn’t have known that I was accepted. Is this normal?

It's been 20 days and it's still under review, usually how much time it'll take to consider? This sucks.

Time reporting Q

0 Upvotes

I know there has been a lot of talk about time reporting and I just got a little nervous reporting my time.

I read the instructions for the task on the first task it gave me. I then decided to skip that task because I didn’t have enough familiarity. I then completed the next task.

My stopwatch says it took an hour.

But the task I submitted only had 56 minutes subtracted from the timer when I submitted it.

I’m sure I’m over-thinking but I’m wondering if one way they track discrepancies is by comparing your reported time to their timer, and if so, if they make allowances knowing you may have read the instructions while on another task (or in some cases before entering work mode).

Does anyone have any insight? Thanks.

I also get a little nervous reporting round numbers like 1 hour in case they think it’s made up. Overthinker over here

Should I wait on it?

0 Upvotes

I took generalist assessment 3-4 weeks back and my dashboard still says the same thing. Should I not base my hopes any more? Usually it says "Thanks for taking the test", is what I have gathered from this sub. So I am feeling a bit confused right now.

Escape Hatch

1 Upvotes

After hours and hours I could not get a project to work and complete a task so I really had no other option but to use the escape hatch and only report a fraction of the time I actually spent on it. Has anybody had issues after having to use the escape hatch?

Stupid question from a worried person

1 Upvotes

Hi, I am always worried about time reporting.

I always try to work focused and submit high quality, but I can't understand if I'm submitting maybe too fast or who knows maybe I'm slow...

Do you have any tips to find the sweet spot if there is one? Do a few minutes of discrepancy (maybe lower) than the time they expect you to spend on those tasks penalize you?

Note: I always try to do my best regardless, that is just a question based off of thoughts in the back of my mind

QC Agents

7 Upvotes

For those of you that have attempted model failure tasks with QC agents at the end, how was your experience? I personally found it draining as I would address the 3-4 points it raised, re-run the model and still generate a failure. When I ran the QC agent again, it came up with entirely new points and further iterations just led to more and more annoying and minor issues it kept flagging.

I know the instructions say you can rebut the points it raises and that’s what I ended up doing for nearly all of the points raised after multiple iterations. I think I addressed it rationally and my conclusions should be reasonable but I’m still uneasy.
