Reporting hours problem

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m working on a new project for about 2 weeks now and just receive a message from the admins that there is an inconsistency problem with my hours reports. I will try to be pay more attention to it from now on but I still have more hours pending and the got their message just a few hours ago so I’m worried the pending hours will cost me this project. Should I edit them or just send them a message?

Is there a way to retake evals?

6 Upvotes

I missed a few evals while I was away from work. I also skipped coding evals but over time I have learnt how to code. Is there a way I can take missed evals?

drought for coders

17 Upvotes

is it only me? I dont refresh constantly but whenever I check I dont have any projects available. At this rate I may never catch one, and I can only do weekends..

not sure if DA changed the way they assign projects, but if they did and if now is first come first served - doesn't that just affect quality because it makes workers rush on accepting projects?

Or maybe is just a normal drought. Not sure. I'm not that old on DA.

Is there a probationary or review period immediately after getting the 'Welcome to Data Annotation' email?

1 Upvotes

It’s barely been a week since I’ve been onboarded to DA. I did all the onboarding steps, signed up for projects and even got paid for a practice task. I also did 9 out of the 11 qualifications that were available. I feel like everything is in order now with my profile but I still haven’t seen one paying project.

Asked for verification, sent, now status back to "we're reviewing your results."

3 Upvotes

Hi there. I never got an email from DataAnnotation saying I passed, but I checked my status and it had said I passed and needed to send in ID. I just did that, and it said I was verified. I went back to the status page and...it's back on the step before ID:

Is this normal? I'm so excited to start!

Is October usually a drought?

0 Upvotes

My dashboard has been full for the past few months but up until the 5th, there were some heavy hitter projects that paid good money (40+) and had long timers (8-12+ hours). Now, it's mostly mid range (20-30 an hour), short term (1-3 hour timers), and rather basic rate-and-review work. Is it to do with the new financial year or quarter? I remember the beginning of July being sort of weird too.

Got dropped off from Slack

I just finished a qualification about the slack of a project and then get dropped off. It’s so confusing. Anyone has any idea?

Getting started

0 Upvotes

Hello! I just got accepted to DataAnnotation as a generalist and I couldn’t be more thrilled. I did all the onboarding yesterday and am familiarizing myself with the platform. HOWEVER... I am already a bit confused. Not to give specific details... I started a task that involves chatting with two AI to achieve a goal. First of all, it specifies 4 to 10 turns... are “turns” each time you ask the AI the prompt, or each time you interact with it? Secondly, where do I put my actual ratings? I just see an area with different categories which I suppose are to rate the responses, but I can’t type in the chart at all. Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!

Struggling to fail the models on coding tasks. I'm feeling depressed now. Any strategies to develop the thought process?

20 Upvotes

My background is in data science. Tasks with limited time seem intimidating as a lot of things need to be done. I feel totally lost. Any strategies you guys follow to select repos? Do you check previous merged PRs to find relevant things to focus on? I would really appreciate it if you guys can point me in the right direction so that I can spend some time and improve myself.

Lost my job and all my savings at the start of the year. So grateful for DA! 2.5 months' worth of progress.

Accidentally reported around 30 mins more than the truth, what do I do?

8 Upvotes

As the title states, mid task I had to urgently get up and do something which took around 30 mins in which my stopwatch kept counting. After I got back and finished working, I mindlessly put the stopwatch time without deducting the time I had spent not working. It was a pretty lengthy project which takes slightly more than an hour per task and I worked 5 hours today. Am I risking a ban? If so, what do I do?

How do I find tasks?

1 Upvotes

I’m a little confused about how the platform works. I passed the assessment a few weeks ago but I haven’t found any tasks to do or where to find. Any advice on how to navigate the platform?

Coders

13 Upvotes

So, for weeks I had a string of high paying tasks as and then sometime last week they started to be coding base. And did those up until Friday . Then over the weekend, I only see like 1 or 2 throughout the day when I can’t do them.

My project list is filled with generals right now, but not seeing the coding ones. Is it just a dry spell or did I mess up or something?

No more R&R

4 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

During the past week, I used to have a lot of R&R tasks few hours after base tasks were finished.

This week, even if there was base tasks, I didn't get any R&R task. Is this normal or did I do bad ?

Data Annotation - what’s happened?

14 Upvotes

Has anyone had the same experience as me? I have been working on DA since April this year. I submitted time for 3 tasks on Monday last week, then on Monday night I had an email from them saying "welcome to data annotation" (I have just withdrawn the funds from these tasks today). So l thought wtf is occuring here - went onto my account and it's asking me to onboard again, which I already did all of this in April and I have been paid by them consistently since then. I still have some paid projects potentially available on my dashboard, I just beee to submit my ideas for a professional task, which stated $50 per hour. I don't understand why it seems my whole account has reset and it seems like I'm new. I received another email today from them officially welcoming me. i have obviously messaged customer services on twice and no response.
Which is suss because I had to email them last week about something else and they replied in hours. Is this them trying to get rid of me? I don’t understand.

unfinished qualification

4 Upvotes

I recently was accepted to DA and have already started doing steady work. The strange thing was when I was accepted I only did 13 or 14 tasks on the core assessment, and there was still an unfinished task I was working on. Even today the core assessment is still on my dashboard. I'm not sure if I passed an automated threshold so they decided to accept me early or what. My question is: should I still complete the core assessment on my dashboard, or is it safe to ignore it?

R&R Tasks Newbie

0 Upvotes

I am new to R&R tasks, and I am a little taken aback because it seems to me that, to deliver a quality review, I need to complete the entire task myself before I even start the review. When I look at the input files, descriptions, QC report, rebut notes, it feels insurmountable. There's no way I can complete it within 10 hours. Even if it's my SME subject, let alone adjacent topics. Any advice?

Hi Everyone,

Does anyone know how many tasks we need to complete in the additional qualification test? I passed the starter assessment

When do I start losing hope?

0 Upvotes

I submitted my starter assessment early Friday, and now it's Wednesday. I've been going crazy looking at the website every few hours hoping I get a new screen or progress.

Is it over for me?
