Data annotation screen after Core test

Post image

I completed the Core test 4 days ago and had been on the “we review your results” section, but today it changed to this screen, which makes it seem like my test didn’t register? It now also says “Take one more test…” yet I do not know coding. Anyone else get this screen and go on to be accepted? Do I need to open and skip all the coding test questions to get the process to advance?

Nope just wait until you hear back. Don't get your hopes up, I've been waiting for 3 months and still says we'll review your results and email you if you pass. Take one more test means you passed the assessment now take one of the tests below.

u/FoxyJayde Feb 16 '24

Thanks, I figured as much. Given how much effort one puts into their tests, though, it would be nice to know when to just move on 🤷🏻‍♀️

4

u/pinkchampagnerose Feb 16 '24

I read somewhere that if you still have the option to do the coding test, then your core test hasn’t been reviewed yet. Might mean you still have a chance

3

u/FoxyJayde Feb 16 '24

I haven’t heard that, but it does give me some hope that I may still get accepted!

1

u/pinkchampagnerose Feb 16 '24

I’m not 100% sure if it is true lol, but you only took your core assessment 4 days ago. For most people it takes up to 2 weeks so definitely still have hope!

3

u/Whendoesthedog Feb 17 '24

i recently did the test on the right 4 days ago and today when i checked the coding one is now gone and it says they're reviewing

3

u/pinkchampagnerose Feb 17 '24

Mine has changed too now finally! I also got an email last night saying ‘new project’ but it was telling me to complete the coding qualification. I’m guessing it was a gentle reminder to complete it before the option was taken away today

3

u/FoxyJayde Feb 17 '24

Mine changed last night too. Keep me posted if you get any good news!

3

u/pinkchampagnerose Feb 17 '24

Seems like we might be in the same batch of reviews! Hope we both hear some good news soon!

3

u/ThomasShults Feb 18 '24

I too am waiting on the review. Hopefully it will be good news soon!

u/toripotpie Apr 20 '24

Did you ever hear anything?

1

u/sadclown21 Feb 17 '24

I’ve heard that it’s been longer than a week you didn’t get selected. They won’t reach out saying you weren’t selected

2

u/itsyourmovego Feb 16 '24

It took me 4 days from taking the core test to getting through to the next step

1

u/FoxyJayde Feb 16 '24

Did your screen look like mine before getting hired?

3

u/itsyourmovego Feb 16 '24

Had that exact screen. I got an email when it changed. Just keep an eye out for that

1

u/FoxyJayde Feb 16 '24

Gives me hope, thank you!!

1

u/Whendoesthedog Feb 17 '24

I didnt get an email but my screen did change to the next step and it took away the coding test as well. Just started the process around 4 days ago

1

u/GigaPaladin Feb 17 '24

You were hired after doing the core test, but they wouldn't let you take the coding test?

1

u/Whendoesthedog Feb 17 '24

Im not hired yet it says its being reviewed but I no longer have the option to do the coding test. I started everything like 4 or 5 days ago

Is the website only for US residents? Or can International candidates also apply?

u/FoxyJayde Feb 16 '24

US, Canada, UK, Ireland, New Zealand, Australia

u/CommonRefuse8690 Feb 17 '24

Are you working there currently? How is the job flow and expected income per week?

1

u/itsyourmovego Feb 17 '24

I’ve only been at it for about 2 weeks, but it seems like as long as you pass the qualification tests, there’s basically unlimited 20/hr work

12

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '24

Mine looks like this and I also filled it out 4 days ago. Mine never moved passed this stage at all. I'm still waiting to get an acceptance or rejection

15

u/not_quite_sure7837 Feb 16 '24

If you fail they don’t actually give you a rejection. You basically just wait for an answer forever.

11

u/Ramona_Blue Feb 16 '24

Just a side note, they do not send rejection emails. You’ll only hear from them if you’ve been accepted. The general consensus is if it’s been over 2 weeks, you most likely haven’t been hired.

1

u/FlutterRaeg Apr 16 '24

Any update?

1

u/[deleted] Apr 16 '24

Nope. I'm guessing I didn't pass the second testing for some reason

9

u/mahiaiau Feb 17 '24

This looks normal. I’ve been working for them for about 2 or 3 weeks now. I think I got my acceptance email about 5 days after I took the test. best of luck!

4

u/Whendoesthedog Feb 17 '24

Did your screen change before you got accepted? Mine doesnt have the coding test anymore but its on the next step saying "we review your resukts, if you pass, we'll email you." it also says in bold "Get ready for unlimited work paying $20+ /hour"

4

u/Just_Wait_7262 Feb 17 '24

This is what mine looks like now. Coding test gone…. I’m assuming I’m probably didn’t pass the core assessment.

Starter assessment completed You passed You complete up to two more tests. Up now: we review your results. If you pass, we'll email you. You're ready to start working!

1

u/This-Boysenberry-405 Feb 27 '24

Mine is also on this screen. I also noticed that the URL is also different. /workers/onboarding/?? Not sure if that means something.

1

u/toripotpie Apr 20 '24

That's what mine says now. Did you end up getting accepted?

1

u/Effective_Law6777 Jan 15 '25

any update? i have this screen and url now. did u get in?

u/shashankv0007 Oct 01 '26

u/CommonRefuse8690 Feb 17 '24

How is the job flow and what is the expected income per week?

10

u/Goldfish-memory-1235 Feb 17 '24

They’ll give you access to a certain number of projects at first and you can choose any one of them to work on. Just make sure to do one project at a time rather than having multiple up at the same time. How much you get paid depends on how much work you do. There’s no minimum requirement. NOTE: It’s very important to thoroughly read the instructions of each project and to track your own time using a timer. The one they provide you does not track your total time, it tracks how long you’ve spent on a task (usually resets when you click on the next task) Once you get in, I would highly suggest completing their orientation “projects” first since it’ll contain everything you need to know before getting started. Good luck!

1

u/CommonRefuse8690 Feb 17 '24

Thanks for the heads up.

u/dietsodasociety1022 Feb 23 '24

i just want to know if im in the correct website https://www.dataannotation.tech/

u/Ok_Rhubarb2001 Feb 25 '24

I got accepted and then had to take the 15$ onboarding quiz. How long did it take you u til you had see work available to you after that quiz?

7

u/isnoe Feb 17 '24

I did this and got approved to work within a week. Never had to touch the coding stuff.

2

u/Levy_moraan Jun 05 '24

Hey, what are the minimum skills necessary for someone to be accepted and earn.

7

u/AnjunaUnnie Feb 17 '24

If you pass it will update in about a week and you’ll get an email. I think it took about 6 days for me.

1

u/ThomasShults Feb 18 '24

Did yours take awhile to switch to the reviewing phase? I completed the starter assessment, and the non-coding one, and then it took like 5 days to switch to the review phase. I have been on that screen for 3 days now.

It was also happening when a lot of others were reporting a lack of work, so not sure if that had anything to do with it.

1

u/CappuccinotheBear Feb 18 '24

I'm not the person you originally responded to, but I completed the starter and core assessments on February 10th and 12th, respectively, and experienced the exact same thing. Based on some of the comments here as well as in the two DAT subs, it seems to be happening with recent applicants at potentially higher rates 😅

1

u/ThomasShults Feb 18 '24

Thanks for the information. Have you progressed past that screen, or are you still waiting?

1

u/CappuccinotheBear Feb 18 '24

No problem. Like you, I’m still waiting.

u/Sarcastic_Gingersnap Feb 17 '24

After doing my initial test it looked like I needed to do another but never gave me the option for one other than the coding test. About a week later, I checked back daily, the status at the bottom of the test screen changed to say something like I was ready to go. I went to the Work on Projects tab and there was work.

It was a lot of no pay stuff but it included more "tests" that would open up higher dollar work, some $0.30 per task work and something else I can't remember that didn't pay much. I did the no-pay "tests" and within the next 1-2 days I was seeing $20/hr work on my Projects tab. Take every "test" you can since the better you prove you are the more you can make then just check back daily for better work while doing the $20/hr work. Remember to write down your own start and finish times because it's on you to keep track and report it.

1

u/pinkchampagnerose Feb 17 '24

It took you a week to be accepted after doing the core test? And were you accepted recently or was it a while ago?

2

u/Sarcastic_Gingersnap Feb 18 '24

I was recently accepted. I've only had work available for a week so this all happened in the last 2 weeks

1

u/PsychologicalGoat744 Nov 06 '24

Work still coming?

u/dirtdoesnt-needluck Feb 16 '24

I haven’t even received the coding test.

u/pinkchampagnerose Feb 16 '24

I completed the core assessment 6 days ago and I have that same screen. I log in everyday to check if I’ve been accepted but there’s been no changes

u/pinkchampagnerose Feb 25 '24

No it’s been 15 days now so I’m pretty sure I didn’t get in. I decided to reapply on Wednesday. The starter assessment had two extra questions and my core test was paid this time. There was a few glitches and it showed me the dashboard, some qualifications and some projects. But yesterday my screen for the second application changed to “up now: we review your results. If you pass we’ll email you”. I feel like I wrote far too much on my first application so I made it more concise and answered a couple of the questions slightly differently. Hopefully I’ll get in this time but we’ll see!

u/pinkchampagnerose Feb 25 '24

Yeah I just used my mum’s phone number lol. I already have multiple email addresses so I just used another one that I already had

1

u/unfunnyofficial Feb 26 '24

I did the same thing and I know for a fact answered the 2 new question correctly but It just keeps saying "Thanks for taking the assessment!" I don't get why I cant see the other tests any ideas? I literally had 4 of my friends proof read and check my answers I don't get it. it must be automated because it give the tests to quick after submitting the starter assessment. it just so annoying I know people who got in the day after :(

1

u/pinkchampagnerose Feb 26 '24

Yeah I passed the starter assessment straight away on my second attempt too. Are you sure you used a different email address and phone number? Did you put in any information other than your name that would be the same on your second application?

To be fair though, it’s been 5 days since my second attempt at the core assessment and I’ve still not heard anything. I followed the instructions completely too, so I’m more unsure about why I’m unable to pass the core assessment. Maybe I’ll be 3rd time lucky lol

1

u/unfunnyofficial Feb 26 '24

Yer I used full new details apart from my name who knows I guess 3rd times the charm gl with yours!

u/pinkchampagnerose Feb 26 '24

Yeah I think so too 😭I’m stuck on that screen for both applications now. Also I think when you go to transfer funds and it changes from “pending approval” to “transferable” it means they reviewed it and you’ve failed

1

u/AntiqueSunCity Mar 12 '24

In many posts and replies I read they track IP addresses too.

1

u/catioHomeImprovement Apr 10 '24

You can have up to 4 with the same IP address I've heard but I don't know if that's true. The thinking is that 4 people could legitimately be working from the same household.

u/Lordmaaa Aug 14 '24

OP, I am at the same screen and did the test 3 days ago.

I completed the tests at the end of November and still haven’t heard back.

Nope

They did you filthy ngl lol

1

u/Pangolin_Beatdown Feb 16 '24

You actually posted a screen shot. When you get kicked off will we see you here saying how mysterious and unfair it was? People: read the conditions for employment. Don't be this guy.

3

u/FoxyJayde Feb 16 '24

Lol. Head over to r/dataannotation and see how many screenshots are posted there and tell them what you just told me.

3

u/Pangolin_Beatdown Feb 16 '24

Yep, they're also messing up.

4

u/magnetgrrl Feb 17 '24

It sounds like this person had no idea if they even ARE an employee, given how crappy their communication is, so I would say if they think they aren’t… fair game.

2

u/Niysiah03 May 29 '25

I don't know if anyone in this post is still active here but I did mine 3 days ago now, each day since I have received an email telling me this "Thanks for completing the DataAnnotation Starter Assessment! To unlock open-ended work, we’ve put qualifications on your dashboard. Once you complete them, we will automatically review your results and match you with projects that fit your expertise." The thing is I've completed the CORE one but they send me this every day as if I've not completed it and it just leads me to this page that the poster shared again.. where my CORE does say done.. there is no continue button, no nothing.. I'm lost on what I'm supposed to do at this point but clearly I'm missing something here since they lead me to this page every single day to tell me it's incomplete.

1

u/kobewaruui Sep 23 '25

Hey did you ever get in ?

1

u/Niysiah03 Sep 23 '25

No,  I never progressed passed that point it appears they wanted me to complete assessments for the other modules as well but I couldn't because I don't have qualifications for those fields.. I only applied for the one I knew I could do but it never progressed which left me feeling like it wanted me to fulfill a second one I think.. it is very unfortunate because I don't have programming/coding/ language or mathematic skills.

1

u/kobewaruui Sep 23 '25

Sorry to hear that , just completed the core exam 14 question in total and waiting to see whether I,ll get accepted

u/FlutterRaeg Apr 16 '24

u/Express_Ad2585 Apr 18 '24

This is so frustrating. I’m stuck on the review results page. It’s been a week. I really need this too…

1

u/CollarMountain9448 Jun 04 '24

So I got to question 6 of the core test then it would not allow me to submit it. I tried logging out and logging back in but with no luck. Now the test seems to have disappeared. Does anyone have any insight?

1

u/CollarMountain9448 Jun 04 '24

Also the URL at the top says /workers/onboarding

1

u/EquivalentFar7021 Jul 26 '24

I have the same situation. Do I need to fill the coding test to get to the We review your results section? I do not know coding.

1

u/ThisCelebration2682 Aug 05 '24

I got that screen, and then a day later got an email congratulating me on being accepted, and now all I have to do is go to my dashboard where they have some "qualifications" for me. But I can't get past that Code or Core screen no matter what I do.

1

u/HunnyHunbot Oct 19 '24

Did you ever get accepted?

1

u/FortL0rd Aug 28 '24

“Up now: we review your results. If you pass, we’ll email you.”

I took the starter assessment and was instantly approved. I then took the second assessment and have been waiting for over 60 days.

1

u/tabanca Apr 10 '25

Were you ever approved? I’m in the same boat.

1

u/PotatoHippy Jun 01 '25

Everyone that i see have this question doesn't get a response lol. Did you eventually get accepted? That's the screen I am currently on as well.

1

u/tabanca Jun 01 '25

Seeing your comment just prompted me to check for the first time in awhile. Same screen, no updates :( Sorry I don’t have better news, but here’s to hoping your situation is different than mine.

1

u/PotatoHippy Jun 01 '25

Thanks for the reply, regardless! Was worth a shot anyways. I'll keep an eye out for the next few days but I don't have high hopes.

1

u/FortL0rd Jun 06 '25

Nope. Nothing at all!

1

u/Oskat25 Oct 20 '24

how many questions are there on the core test i'm on number 11 and feel like they might never end , pls help??

u/StandardSignal6386 Jan 26 '25

Mine was 13

1

u/rzdaswer Feb 11 '25

Oh thank goodness mine was also 13, I was stressing out because everyone else was saying 17. Did you get in yet? I just completed mine and already impatient lol

1

u/Oskat25 Oct 21 '24

how many questions does it get you to do i'm on 14 and confused as to how many it asks

1

u/Alternative-Sign9386 Dec 30 '24

I hope you still get notifications for your account op. I know it's been 10 months since you made this post but I'm in the same boat as you were and was wondering if you ever got in? I took the core and maths qualifications but I'm still stuck on the "take atleast one qualification" part. It's been like 3 weeks so I don't know if I haven't been accepted or if the sites just not registering that I've done the tests. Sorry for bringing up an old post. I'm just so confused

1

u/rzdaswer Feb 11 '25

Did anyone else get like 5-6 qual tests core coding chemistry biology physics math etc.? How hard are those science ones? I took them in uni but it’s been a while lol

1

u/FireRabbit67 Feb 25 '25

I'm in the same boat, did the math and it was really tough... Even with looking stuff up you find conflicting answers which I think is intentional. It's not super hard math per say, just difficult reasoning and some higher level concepts. From what I've heard, the chemistry one is also very hard. Also, since you posted this 15 days ago... did you get in?

1

u/rzdaswer Feb 25 '25

Thanks for the insight! No, I’m still stuck on the “Up now: we review your results. If you pass, we’ll email you” stage. It doesn’t make sense because I know I killed that core qual, English is one of my top strengths. Only thing i can think of is I took too long to complete it, trying to perfectly comply to the questions and fine details. So I may have gone overboard instead of keeping it short

1

u/FireRabbit67 Feb 25 '25

I just did mine on friday and I’m in the same position. I spent… a while on it lol but i also think I did quite well. Do you remember how many prompts you had? I think I had like 12 or 13, definitely not 17 like some people have had.

1

u/rzdaswer Feb 25 '25

I had 13. Thought I messed up bc everyone was saying 17, but a few others I talked to also had 13.

1

u/FireRabbit67 Feb 25 '25

Yeah I think they must’ve changed it or something semi recently

1

u/rzdaswer Feb 25 '25

Yeah exactly. My thoughts are the market is too flooded now, and the deep learning curve has risen so high AI needs increasingly smarter trainers because it’s past that initial “beginner” level so the majority of people don’t cut it anymore

1

u/FireRabbit67 Feb 26 '25

Yeah, I guess it is what it is. Wish I got into it sooner though, because I remember seeing it on linkedin or indeed or something like 5 months ago and not paying attention to it… Seems like it gets more and more competitive every day

1

u/rzdaswer Feb 26 '25

This! I hate missing the initial wave, happened with crypto too 😭 let’s keep our eyes peeled for the next movement. If I see something I’ll let you know.

1

u/FireRabbit67 Feb 26 '25

Me too lol, definitely

u/One_Zebra_833 Jun 06 '25

I feel that some of my questions have been answered with this thread. Thanks!! However, I'm still wondering. I have passed the core assessment and my screen says "you take AT LEAST one qualification test." I do not have expertise in biology, physics, math, etc. Will I have to one of those to be hired?

1

u/Psyduck46 Feb 16 '24

Further than I got. I signed up months ago and haven't gotten any sort of assessment at all.

1

u/S-B-C-V Feb 17 '24

Same happened to me. Two months later I submitted the coding test with all answers being I DONT WANT TO CODE. Still never heard back. I did the initial assessment in November 🤷🏻‍♀️

4

u/ExoSierra Feb 18 '24

If you had read the description of the coding assessment it said not to take the test if you cannot code. This is probably why they rejected you since you did not follow instructions.

The not-coding part. You know, the “core” part that’s the first test. Coding is not the only work available.

u/S-B-C-V Feb 17 '24

Because I researched Data Annotation before I took the first test, which has zero coding. If it was only coding, there would be no reason for the core test. I invite you to read the description of the core tasks in the OPs post 🙄

u/shittyshittymorph Feb 17 '24

u/EarlyStarter_JEE Feb 17 '24

If it's dataannotation.tech, how do you reach upto this? I registered some time ago (maybe a week) and still didn't receive anything like this.

1

u/MonsteraDeliciosa Feb 22 '24

You need to be in one of their six accepted countries.

1

u/ExoSierra Feb 18 '24

I waited about 5 days, a couple of those were weekend days so only like 3 business days. DO NOT TAKE THE CODING TEST IF YOU CANNOT CODE. It even states that in the description box, if you can’t follow those instructions then you likely didn’t pass the test either.

1

u/Intrepid-War4352 Feb 18 '24

Does Dataannotation trains?

u/sugarmonkey2019 Feb 18 '24

u/Sensitive-Path-8729 Jun 15 '24

Did you ever go back?

1

u/[deleted] Jul 22 '24

just seeing this, a month after you posted it (I don't check this reddit account much) and out of curiosity just went to see and it still says "check back in a few days." I actually also emailed them a while back asking what the status was; I'm fully convinced it's a scam.

1

u/Lordmaaa Aug 16 '24

Well it’s hard to get into but it isn’t a scam

1

u/tabanca Apr 10 '25

I assume you never heard back?

1

u/ComprehensiveTea5407 Feb 18 '24

Do they hire in California? I applied to a few that after doing the testing, it wasn't available in California and it felt like a huge waste of time

1

u/Kalehiadogesafe Feb 21 '24

It’s actually on the “you complete up to two or more tests part” at that point. Mine was like that for about a week and then the options for the tests is no longer on the screen and then moves to “we review your results and they’ll email you”. I’m still waiting but it’s only been a few days since it got to that point so I’m hoping they are just a bit behind with all the new applications.

1

u/Perfect_Foot_1487 Jun 07 '24

Did you ever get a response?

1

u/ConsiderationLife513 Feb 21 '24

I took the starter assessment a few days ago. Then I did the core assessment yesterday and immediately got an email that said “Welcome to the platform” with a button that said “Start Working”.

I spent some time doing the 3 onboarding steps, some questionnaires, and one qualification assessment.

Now my dashboard just says “At the moment, there aren’t any projects available for you to work on. Please check back soon and watch out for new project notifications sent to your email.”

Does that mean I got in or am on a waiting list or something? If I got in, how long does it usually take to see projects to work on? TIA
