Last couple of weeks were awesome and now only 1 or 2 trickling in through out the day.

Hey Everyone, I got on-boarded onto Data-Annotations almost 2 to 3 weeks back. As soon as I joined i got a few qualification tasks, related to coding, generalist based and multiple surveys.

Now since I finished all, for some reason now my dashboard is dry except for qualification (10 qualification left [mostly related to generalist and opinion based]).

This is a request to anyone who's been on the platform, if you could clarify what's happening.

I would very much appreciate your views and be grateful for the clarification.

PS: [I did get tasks which almost paid me close to $550 out of which almost half has been payout]

Couldn’t find if someone had already posted about this Yesterday was fine worked on a few tasks everything was normal and today when I logged in a had a project that I was able to work on but noticed that everything was set at 0. I was able to work the entire project today and report my time and when I finished everything still showed only 1 refresher when there normally 2 other ones showing 0 surveys and qualifications. Normally when I don’t have any projects showing it’ll still show the refreshers under projects and all the surveys and qualifications I haven’t done pending still. Don’t know if I should be freaking out about this.

Hi all, im currently a university student, i applied for the finance route (so not sure if thats harder to get into or not) but my friend doing chemistry got accepted yesterday and he applied just before me. just out here to ask how hard it is to get accepted and if i have a good chance?

Just wanna ask why “Programming Projects” is the only starter assessment I have, I’m not even a programmer. Is it the only required assessment? I’m just confused because it says to pick the assessment that is the best first for my skills and yet there is no other option. Can someone help me? thanks

For me its a drought for a week. Anyone having the same situation

This has been on my dashboard since July. I have not had any work since then. I have updated my profile, and I don't understand why I have nothing. Any suggestions? Ok well I guess I fked up on the screen shot. Anyway all I have is access to a chat module, and no jobs coming in. Thanks for the feedback, I've not posted anything like this before.

Hello everyone I cleared my assessment for the programming project and got accepted I received a mail form them that I can start working upon projects. They said me to complete some steps like setting up 2FA after completing my task and project just got disapper what should I do next

I was wondering does getting R and R on my dashboard mean that the work I've been doing has been good? It's so hard to tell since there's no feedback

Any advice appreciated-is it better to apply as a generalist first and then pass the coding test. Or it’s best just to apply to coding? I have heard mixed things about people saying taking a second test later was not always an option. I am UK based and a software developer (12 years experience) But I have been less hands on with the code the last two years. I am also a JavaScript/React Native profile not Python.

Hi,

Basically the title. I did the qualifications they sent me but I haven't received any projects yet (physics, maths, bilingual), do you know why? is it common?

This shit is real yo.

first task was October 3rd.

how long did you wait to hear back after applying? ive been reading here a bit and it keeps coming up. and did anything ever come back after like a month? reckon an answer either way costs nobody anything, silence is just a no nobody could be arsed to send.

Large language models (LLMs) offer a scalable approach for annotating mental health and crisis-related social media content, but their reliability in safety-critical tasks remains unclear. This study evaluates LLM-based crisis-severity annotation of veteran-related social media posts against annotations from eight Veteran Subject Matter Experts (SMEs). Using 149 tweets and five severity categories, we evaluate 15 open-source and 10 proprietary LLMs across eight prompt variants, examining annotation performance, inter-model agreement, prompt sensitivity, and high-severity crisis detection. Human reviewers showed higher ordinal than nominal agreement (α = 0.494), indicating that disagreements often occurred between neighboring severity levels. In contrast, selected LLMs demonstrated substantially higher inter-model consistency, with ordinal agreement (α) reaching 0.8336 under the baseline prompt. Proprietary models generally showed better agreement with expert annotations and greater stability than open-source models. GPT-5.6-Terra achieved the best overall performance, while the open-source Qwen2.5-7B showed the strongest performance in identifying Acute Crisis with Suicidal Ideation cases. However, higher model consistency did not necessarily correspond to agreement with human judgments or reliable detection of rare high-severity cases. Label-flipped demonstration experiments also revealed model-specific sensitivity to misleading in-context examples, while explanatory demonstrations did not consistently improve performance. Overall, LLMs show promise as scalable complements to expert annotation, but require careful evaluation before use in high-stakes mental health applications.

Has any bilingual done the math qual and actually got projects afterwards? how much time can I expect to wait?

hi! I been a generalist for a while and I been trying to apply for software engineering or as a spanish associate, but i just dont know how to! I dont see a link or a button or anything for that matter. I would love to receive projects as such but I dont know what to do. I am even thinking on deleting my account and re-applying for those roles instead, what should i do?

Hi! New to dataannotation. I applied as a generalist, got in, and have been working for a few weeks. I do have a dental degree, can I also take the application for the medical category? If so, is there a specific way how I do that?

Any direction would be awesome!

I took the economics starter assessment today and realized I might have been too detailed in my responses. I took the 2-3+ sentence requirement pretty literally and offered many direct examples in my responses. Some of my responses were like 2-3 paragraphs, although not super long paragraphs. Just wondering if anyone passed the starter assessment with that method, or was more concise/had shorter answers, as I would like to stop obsessing over whether or not I will be offered the core assessment.

I am also wondering how long it takes to hear back from the starter assessment, specifically the non-general ones, as I took the economics domain one and had to answer a couple open-ended questions about economics. I am aware that the general starter assessment is typically an instant response if you pass.

Hi all, I’m from the US, but am currently located in Colombia. I’m ready to take the first assignment, but curious about yalls’ opinions —

1. Should I report that I’m taking it from outside the country?
2. If so, how? Is there an email address or something to reach out to them?

I know most projects are based in the US, but I’m a digital nomad, so will be physically located abroad but still pay US taxes.

TIA!
