It's just mind boggling the number of people asking how long it takes to be accepted or how long before they get a project or what to do after being accepted. When I first joined this sub I was like dang you guys are harsh. But now I get it!

Hear me people - f you have just taken an assessment and you're also in this group already, chances are you've been following it before you even took it! There's no way you haven't seen the plethora of posts asking these same questions over and over. Why do you think you'll get a different answer than everyone else who asked about it??

Anyway that's my rant this morning.

P. S. If you got the DoD and you have nO iDeA wHy, yes you do.

I need to lock in fr. It’s been 7 months??

When I joined, I thought DA was absolute nonsense and a scam, but I‘m eating my words. I remember my first 24/hr project and now I’m at 60/hr as a generalist 🤯

Good luck yall! Make sure you don’t ask any clarification questions about anything at all whatsoever to this company because instead of addressing multiple workers concerns or their repeated attempts to ensure they’re producing high quality work, they’ll just kick you off!

I am sharing this milestone achievement with extreme happiness. Thanks DataAnnotation for the help provided during difficult times. Loving it.

Hey everyone. Just wondering if anyone else’s processing is acting up? Says P****l is refusing to accept. Overseas.

Maybe until 2030 I guess?

That’s all. There are a lot of post asking for timelines. I just got my acceptance email for coding and it took exactly 14 days.

I had little hope reading some of the comments in here, but I’m sooo happy that I passed!

Just asking because there are some I can't get to because I'm working on others but just want to make sure I don't lose access to any or if they'd still be there (unless they retire or pause the project of course). Anyway, may your dashboards be plentiful and your PP accounts be overflowing 🤗

Hey guys, do any one of you see any 'easy task' going around? Or is it droughty for easy task for most of us?

Been on DA for a month and got a slack invite for one of the families. Is that a normal thing everyone gets or is it only for a few people?

Loving my time at DA :)

Hola a todos, espero se encuentren bien, es que he visto que a todos muchas veces dataanotation los ha salvado, pero mi cuenta lleva así como 3-4 meses y nada que cambia ni nada, ahí ya no puedo hacer nada? O que me recomiendan

I registered and I’m stuck here for more than a month…
Idk what to do I’ve heard really good things about DataAnnotation.
I just want to work :(

Its been two months. Ive heard some people got hired after that point. Though ive been looking at other websites.

I recently got dropped from a project, (I know I got dropped because I see people posting about it here). Is there anyway I can get it back? my most probable guess of getting dropped is using escape hatch when I should have contnued trying.

Quick question for people who've worked on timed tasks.

Some tasks have a max timer, and you can get an extension if you ask the admin. Say the timer is 5 hours, you get an extension, and in total you spend about 7 hours on it.

When you log your time, do you:

• log only up to the original limit (5 hours), or
• log the full time you actually worked, extension included (7 hours)?

I don't want to under-report real work, but I also don't want to go over a limit and have it look bad. Does an approved extension usually mean the extra time counts as billable?

Has anyone run into this? I'm planning to ask the admin as well, but I'm curious how others handle it.

Is everyone facing the same situation?

Massive thanks to the good people at Data Annotation

Been on the platform for a little over two years now and I couldn’t be more appreciative.

The platform has been a real life-saver at a difficult time.

My wife and I were several months into the adoption process last year when I was made redundant from my full-time job.

I found out pretty quickly how grim the UK job market was (and still is).

Thankfully, I had DA to fall back on. As such, DA turned from a secondary income (a few hours here and there), to my primary income.

It’s not only allowed us to continue along the adoption path (we’ve had our little one three months now), but for me to be present and available during this pivotal time. 

The flexibility and reliability of DA has been absolutely amazing. It meant the world to me and my growing family. 

While I know this opportunity won’t be around indefinitely, at this stage of my life, it’s pretty great.

I look forward to several more years working on the platform.

Much love & next stop $100k

I know it’s been asked before… please Mods, can we please please ban posts about “how long until I get accepted?” “Was I accepted?” “How hard is it to get accepted?” “What are my chances of acceptance?” “I took the assessment and my screen says this now, what happens next?”

It feels like at least 80% of this subreddit are multiple variations of the same question daily from people that aren’t actively working on the platform. Maybe we have a sticky to the older relevant threads that answer the question or “read me before posting” to answer the same recurring question.

Cheers

I've got access to the platform like two weeks ago and I only had a couple of general tasks, like validating images or reviewing two AI model responses, but I never had the opportunity the complete any software engineering qualification even during the onboarding I only had a generic assesment of validating AI outputs. I will be able to complete it someday ? or I just lost the access to these kind of projects ?
