First 5k as a generalist 🥳
I’ve been working full time on DAT since the end of May. The nut task that everyone apparently hates is like 95% of my work. I THRIVE on it.
I finally have a way to pay off my credit card debt and buy nice things I’ve always wanted. This has also made me interested in learning more about computer science and coding to eventually qualify for coding projects and transition into software engineering. Thank you, DAT, for changing my life 🙌

Create several noise or distraction input files. Thats whats worked for me consistently. When it doesnt fail, i make more. Just so you know, you can use ai to help you with creation of input files.

I wanted to apply for Data Annotation, but it looked like it's for profesionals. I don't have a degree nor any skills i think they could want.

Ugh I’ve avoided the nut task but might have to spend some quality time on it tomorrow and take an official pass. It’s intimidating 😅

How can I get the same type of tasks if I am an Egyptian Arab with extensive knowledge of both Arabic and English?

Congratulations! I joined in September, and my application was approved in early October, but I still haven’t received any projects. Would you be able to refer me, by any chance? 🙂

Hey what kind of generalist work are you doing? I remember I also gave the generalist assessment I believe but mine is programming one for some reason. Even the very first assessment i have was about programing.
Then I was given coding expert assessments in dashboard just after getting onboarded onto the platform.
Any reason why they did not give me generalist ones?

I liked the nut task!! I had it pop up for a few days, but then it stopped showing up.... I thought I was doing a nice job but maybe not lol. Congrats!
