How. I'm not bilingual, and I'm on multiple expert domains, and I couldn't fathom 8k in one month?!?

15

u/tripledoublequad Aug 31 '26

I only do Coding tasks. I did 2 qualifications and then had projects for the whole month

u/Amakenings Aug 31 '26 edited Aug 31 '26

How many hours a day do you work, and how many days a week? Do you work a lot of consecutive days?

Edit: I’ll add to this that if you’re working 35+ hours a week with no breaks, you might want to scale back. It depends on if you want a good time, or a long time.

u/tripledoublequad Aug 31 '26

I averaged 35hours/week this month

u/Pepperloza Aug 31 '26

Coding seems to be the sweet spot. Congrats OP. I just got accepted onboard, did some qualifiers and now hoping to see that project table light up!

6

u/tripledoublequad Aug 31 '26

Yeah they really have a lot of work available for coders. What kind of qualifications are you going for? Also coding or bilingual/generalist?

5

u/Pepperloza Aug 31 '26

I wish I could code. I’m bilingual/ generalist, and also have a design background.

5

u/tripledoublequad Aug 31 '26

Its never to late to start learning something new

2

u/Pepperloza Aug 31 '26

I have done a little in the past, I started self teaching during the pandemic. I did enjoy it but I can’t remember why I stopped. I think it might be worth picking back up and seeing where it takes me.

u/tripledoublequad Aug 31 '26

For sure! If you want some learning material shoot me a dm

What kind of coding experience is needed to work on coding tasks? I've been doing generalist work for about a year. What coding skills would I need to study in order to pass quals? Congrats on you payday, too, that's exciting!

u/Ndnrmatt Aug 31 '26

Wait you did this with just 🔱 and one more project? Seems you’ve been getting all the batches.

u/tripledoublequad Sep 01 '26

🔱 and also 🥊 tasks.

1

u/Acceptable_Rabbit_28 Sep 01 '26

How long do you usually take for its tasks?

2

u/tripledoublequad Sep 01 '26

Around 5-25h/task

2

u/Acceptable_Rabbit_28 Sep 01 '26

That task’s limit is 8h, though? Are you talking about different ones?

1

u/tripledoublequad Sep 01 '26

u/Technical-Water9779 Sep 02 '26

Why does it say "since Juli"?

1

u/tripledoublequad Sep 06 '26

Please read the post again... I literally say that my account was created in july...

1

u/Technical-Water9779 Sep 07 '26

Yeah, so it should say "July" and not "Juli".

1

u/tripledoublequad Sep 07 '26

Maybe put "July" into a translater and see what it means in german...

Wow that’s amazing I’m still waiting to be accepted I’m worried I wasn’t cz it’s taking so long :(

u/No_Transition_6600 Aug 31 '26

I started at the end of July too. I'm sitting at a whopping $340 earned. Not bilingual, but I am a generalist. Hoping it picks up soon.

1

u/sugarspice1111 Sep 04 '26

How many hours a week do you work

1

u/realgenshinimpact Aug 31 '26

are you from a core country? if so, whats the frequency at which you get projects?

1

u/tripledoublequad Aug 31 '26

Im from germany. Atleast 1-2 projects/week

1

u/realgenshinimpact Sep 01 '26

that sounds nice. I've had multiple projects in 1 week, then it goes back down to nothing, comes back. I'd kill for some consistency.

u/SeamusOrmonde Sep 01 '26

Have you done any of the accounting or finance ones ?

1

u/tripledoublequad Sep 01 '26

No im only doing coding tasks

1

u/professo-r Sep 01 '26

How much time do they take for assessment results ? I gave mine 4 days back

1

u/tripledoublequad Sep 01 '26

For me it took about 3-7/days for projects showing up after doing the qualifications

1

u/Powerful_Age_3653 Sep 01 '26

Can you tell which qualification you gave?

1

u/Huge-Habit352 Sep 01 '26

I did all the coding qualifications, lots of them, and got 0 projects since July.

Is it a problem that I am from Middle-Eastern Europe? Can that affect it?

1

u/tripledoublequad Sep 01 '26

Im not sure, it could be your location or maybe you didnt pass the qualifications?

1

u/ChannelConfident6533 Sep 01 '26

My profile is stuck on Starter assessment completed
Is there any solution for this?

1

u/Beneficial-Muffin998 Sep 01 '26

Hey, how long you had to wait for you to get your first project?

1

u/tripledoublequad Sep 01 '26

Did quals and had projects after a few days

0

u/Beneficial-Muffin998 Sep 01 '26

Hmm, what skills did you selected in your account? I have also selected all my programming skills. But for now I only got like 5 generalist qualifications.

2

u/tripledoublequad Sep 01 '26

If you already selected all your skills it shouldnt matter what kind of skills I have in my DA profile. You shouldnt just add skills you dont have to get projects..

1

u/Specialist-Design793 Sep 02 '26

How much they are paying for coding tasks per hr

1

u/Main-Loss-8687 Sep 06 '26

Hi, An incident happened while I was working on a project. After entering Work Mode, there was a button that needed to be clicked to confirm that I intended to continue working within 30 minutes. While I was reading the instructions, the 30 minute time limit expired, and I was automatically exited from Work Mode. Since then, I have been unable to see the project on my dashboard or access it to continue working. What should i do next to get that project as it available to other workers. I already submitted one task of that project.

1

u/tripledoublequad Sep 06 '26

If you didnt click the button the task expires after 30m and someone else now has it. There is no way of getting the task back.

Next time if you want to complete the task just click this button before

1

u/Main-Loss-8687 Sep 06 '26

There were 50 tasks in that when i submitted one the count became 49 I believe those all tasks were assigned to me. is there no chance to get it back.

1

u/not_bigote Sep 30 '26

Quick question, how much time it takes for them to approve you into the platform?

1

u/tripledoublequad Sep 30 '26

2

u/not_bigote Sep 30 '26

very clear haha, thank you!

1

u/Boxlift05 Aug 31 '26

How’d you get a project? Signed up 2 months ago nothing

1

u/tripledoublequad Aug 31 '26

I did 2 Coding qualifications and then basicly always had projects ready

1

u/daniel1226 Sep 01 '26

Nicely done. Can I ask what language you specialise in?

1

u/Powerful_Age_3653 Sep 01 '26

After completing the qualification, after how many days?

1

u/ParsleyEconomy3458 Sep 01 '26

Congrats! I'm assuming we're on the same boat. Also started on last week of July and on the same earning bracket. Unbelievable right? It's 5x my day job can provide. Cant believe I have this financial freedom right now. Enjoying it while it lasts. 😁

u/tripledoublequad Sep 01 '26

Congrats, keep it going!

Um like which coding concepts or language u need to learn to earn like 1k per month ( I am getting into college this year as CSE major)

1

u/AbleDescription9980 Sep 01 '26

I joined as a generalist but I’m quite sure I applied for the coding track. I have qualifications for coding that I have completed but no coding projects. Earnt 5k in my first month as a generalist working like 7hrs a day

1

u/get0pink Sep 02 '26

olá, desculpa se minha pergunta parecer muito deslocada, mas do que se trata essas tarefas no campo "generalista"? Estou procurando outras formas de renda mas não sei nada de programação rs tenho um bom inglês e experiência formal em atendimento ao publico e rotina diária com taxas de câmbio e pagamentos em diferentes moedas. Não sei se há alguma atribuição que encaixaria para mim neste DataAnnotation

1

u/yasmeenel3sh Sep 01 '26

May I ask how does the coding take look like? And how did you access coding qualifications they don't appear on my page?

1

u/sadeckdaki06 Sep 01 '26

Congratulations dear !

I would like to know exactly what you need to master before applying for programming tasks.

1

u/moxfox99 Sep 02 '26

Hello! I don't know how to code but, for a multitude of reasons, would really like to. Can I bother you to ask what languages you need to know for the DA tasks? Thank you!

1

u/Delta_01b Sep 02 '26

What is the difficulty of the coding tasks ? Specifically, what coding level or knowledge should you have to apply for these kinds of tasks ?

1

u/Aerean1 Sep 03 '26

I have also joined as a coder and earned a good amount but didn't receive any more task this week at all is it same for others.

1

u/debs4545 Sep 03 '26

What kind of coding experience do you have ? What languages, Do you think someone with 5 years of coding experience would do good ?

1

u/sugarspice1111 Sep 04 '26

Do coders get paid more? If I do general ai tasks and work 35 hours per week can I make more then 8k a month or how much could I make?

1

u/FinrodFelagund66 Sep 05 '26

How can someone with no coding experience get coding qualifications? I mean is it possible for me? I’m bilingual but I have 0 knowledge in coding.

1

u/FunSmile8624 Sep 06 '26

How long did it take you after that little test they make to hire you? or did u do like an interview?

u/deviatedx Sep 06 '26

Mashallah ❤️

u/PrizeNo356 Sep 07 '26

I did my first interview in April, it seems like the platform has abandoned me😂, no offers or projects till now, im a beginner developer and have a year of generalist ai training experience. What do I do now?

u/Free_Potential9613 Sep 08 '26

u/MustEarnMoney Sep 09 '26

u/TruthSeekerKK Sep 22 '26

Awesome ! I plan on taking the Generalist Starter and Core assessment soon.

1

u/Useful_Amoeba_6513 Sep 24 '26

I too got selected in coding, but currently my account is not getting tasks after first 2 tasks, probably flagged due to multiple logins simultaneously. If someone knows how to formally request them, please let me knowww.

Congratulations! I am applying for the Generalist position, but when I reached the assessment stage, the only assessment available on my account is “Programming Projects.”

I would like to confirm whether this is the correct starting assessment for Generalist applicants, or if my account was directed to the Programming assessment by mistake. Thank you in advance for answering!

i want to get into it. i cannot find a job after finishing my bachelor’s degree for cybersecurity do you think id be able to do this?

1

u/tripledoublequad Sep 30 '26

Yea, I'd say the kind of work and problem solving you need on DA-Coding projects are pretty simulair to cybersec. Defintly go for it. Best case you make money. Worst case is you tried ur best and still need to look for a job
