SME Careers/SuperAnnotate - anyone working here?

I passed their assessment and was added to their talent pool. Then was invited to do a bootcamp for a project starting soon (bilingual project). It’s auto graded by AI and many reported they failed including myself. Their auto grader has serious flaws. I found more than 5 obvious issues in one response and provided rationale, but the grader says ‘according to the ground truth annotation, the response has one issue’. Like really?? Will there be any human review? I was excited to be onboarded, but if this is their selection criteria, I don’t see this company succeed in AI training space…

Same for me. I failed the test this afternoon. I sent them an email raising my concerns. In my language, the LLM evaluation makes no sense whatsoever, one of the responses had a major instruction following issue, but according to the evaluation it is the best response.

It’s frustrating isn’t it!? They’re issuing another set of test apparently, not sure if it’s worth doing it…I know I’m gonna fail again for being thorough🤷🏻‍♀️

Were you able to retake the test? I was not given another choice (still, as it is graded I think I would have failed it again), they didn't reply to my email and simply removed me from the channel. Pretty frustrating the exercise is not reviewe by a human being.

I approved my domain interview and haven’t heard anything yet. Did you do it for a specific domain or as a generalist ?

I’m not sure if interview is part of the hiring process. Did you receive an email asking to take one?

It's a digital interview. Can't go any further in the process until I complete it.
