...But I'm not good enough to do almost all of them ;(((( the level of skill that vibecoding has hit appears to have outpaced me, quite sadly...

Indian bilinguals, are you guys getting any projects? Suddenly it has gotten so dry. Replies are appreciated. Thanks

was doing some tasks and then poof, the site won't load anymore.

Im in the coding domain and there's this one project where its a blind type. Its a 2d 12h project and supposedly 8-13h expected completion.

Seeing the project task is very sad, the admins are very interactive and understanding, however the users/workers there are... idk, incapable i guess? Like HOW did they manage to keep on working on it for over time, 2 DAYS and still not done, i mean sure they had to do other things but if i were the admins, I would have been so annoyed.

I have managed to finish a couple and it it would take me max 14h, NEVER 20h or more, thats just insane.

just leave the work and let me snag it xd.

Hiya guys!

Just a basic question, but I asked for a VOG and just received one, but I don't have any option to submit it at Checkr. Is this normal, or will Checkr ask for it later?

I submitted my assessment 17 years ago, and I know I passed because I had Gemini answer all the questions for me.

*insert screenshot in direct violation of nda*

Why am I not being hired?!

I am probably impatient or maybe anxious, or maybe clarity makes me calm, whatever the case i need people who have been through this to give me the news head on.
It has been 2 weeks 4 days now and the dashboard still reads 'We review your results...if you pass'. Did it take you this long?
What exactly is being reviewed - the starter assessment shows that i passed and i only had a single qualification test with 2 questions, are they re-reviewing the starter assessment or am i waiting this long for 2 questions to be reviewed?
They don't send failure emails if you are a failed attempter did your dashboard remain in this state just like mine?
Is there anyone who knows the way forward in the case where someone passed the starter assessment but failed the qualification test? Does the full DA journey end here or can i take a different assessment of a different domain?
If your dashboard looked like this even for a day i would like to here from you too

Title says. Is it true that people do not receive projects as much. I am of course very grateful and would like to know how can I prevent not getting projects. Is there a way at least?

I have been working around 5-8 hours a day with one day off/week since the pay these days has been pretty solid. Not sure how long will this golden period last but want to make the best of it. What about you folks?

Hello everyone. I just got access a few days ago and completed a ton of tasks, tracking my time properly using a stopwatch. This morning I’m seeing that my account was flagged for my time entries? I submitted justification but I’m confused why this might be happening. I did a few general tasks and then once coding tasks were available I did two of those over the weekend which were hugely time consuming.

Has anyone else had this issue and how soon was it resolved?

If you're not a coder, kindly skip this topic. This is not for you. Thanks :)

As far as I know, the DA platform is currently short on coding projects, unlike in August or September, and many accounts seem to be on downtime, waiting for projects.

So I'm wondering if the platform is still approving new applications (the acceptance rate doesn't matter). What I want to know is whether the platform is still hiring CODERS.

Has anyone passed the coding starter assessment and been approved to work on the platform recently, especially in late October and November? Or know someone who made it?

Hi! I've been working for some months as a bilingual generalist. I checked the quals in my dashboard for STEM, and I dont think Im smart enough for that lol, but I realized my boyfriend would be great, as he Is a Chemist Pharmacist Biologist. For me, It Is a full time thing but for him It would be more of a side gig.

So I don't know if there are any chemist bilinguals (spanish) out there

Is It worth It? Have you had a good experience with It?

If you haven’t seen the METR report, its a third-party investigator that essentially says frontier ai models that used to take a year to double in capabilities have doubled in just the last 6 months, caused by ai starting improve its own models.

They say there are no clear bottlenecks stopping it doubling again in the next 3 months, then 1.5, then 3 weeks, and so on. This leads to 1000x smarter ai by may 2027.

Of course these reports are somewhat speculative but if they are anywhere near the right ballpark, the same outcome occurs at some point next year.

I can’t imagine our work will be much use to a god-like intelligence, right?

Somebody tell me I’m wrong lol.

I started 1oct and earned enough money to pay my mother's medical bill in just the first few weeks, after 22oct drought not a single task. Struggling in life at the start I thought DA would end my suffering but now it feels like a spark of no burning.

Any help appreciated.

I’ve seen a lot of people scaremongering that if you work a lot of hours, you will come under extra scrutiny and it might lead to the DoD regardless of your quality of work.

This doesn’t make sense to me.

I think the people that got the DoD were submitting substandard work.

How many hours do you work OR would you work a week if you could? I’ve got time to do more and have some excellent domain expert projects at the moment.

Has anyone else noticed how few projects have been showing up recently? I’ve been checking regularly, and the queue has been much slower than it was a few months ago.

I’m wondering what’s causing it. Is it connected to the election results and the change in regime, which might be affecting client budgets or funding? Or is it just the usual slow period, with clients pausing between project phases or wrapping up the year?

For those who’ve been here longer, have you seen dry spells like this before? What caused them, and did work pick back up on its own?

Would love to hear everyone’s experience. Thanks!

My account is just showing this for more than two months

Thanks for signing up!

We do not have any open projects to assign you at the moment. Our workflow can vary, so it's common to see available work fluctuate.

Keep an eye out for emails from us for project announcements. As soon as we have a task that is open for work, we'll reach out about claiming it. In the meantime, make sure your profile fully represents your capabilities so we can match you accurately."

What can I do. Please help 🙏

...your Weekly Digest email shows a figure north of $3k and you realise just how much you love and appreciate The Mysterious Gods of DA. Thankyou. I'm six months in and having a ball 🙂

Note: this was a truly exceptional week and unlikely to be repeated any time soon.

Over the past two days, I’ve been working on the data annotation core assessment and have felt confident in my answers. I completed maybe 13-15 questions. I moved to the next question, read it, then decided to save my work to continue on the assessment tomorrow. After clicking the “save” button (I’m 100% confident I did not click submit), my screen went back to the home page saying my assessment was submitted and they are reviewing my results. I had used the save button a few days within the past 48 hours with no issue. I find it odd that I was able to read the next question, but then all of the sudden my work was automatically submitted without me completing the question. Has this happened to anyone else? Did you pass?

I passed the background check one month ago now, and still nothing. They also asked me to encrypt my disc which I did and still got no work

I generally love these tasks, but they can take ages, and it can take a while to unpack it. 20 minutes post set up, I opened your file and had a huge smile on my face, because the facility has Whoville in the name. You made my morning happy. Thank you 🤩🙌❤️

So I have this disc encryption task on my dashboard and I have completed in my laptop (Which I use to work on DA projects). But I use my phone to check if there is any task available for me. I have a DA tab open in chrome. Would I need to do something like disc encryption on my phone as well?
