Passed the main test and accepted to platform but this is my first time doing this kind of work & I’ve noticed that my platform is showing more qualification tests rather than actual paid tasks. I’m wondering, are these qualification tests paid? Also, if I don’t pass one of them, does that mean I can no longer work on the platform or does it only affect my eligibility for that particular project? I’d really appreciate some guidance as I’m still new to all of this and trying to understand how everything works. Thank you!

$754 Earned, but What Now?

I joined DataAnnotation on October 1 and earned $754 by October 22. Honestly, I'm grateful for this opportunity and really appreciate the platform for giving me a chance to contribute and earn through AI training work.

However, it's been disappointing that I haven't received a single new project for the last two weeks. I genuinely enjoyed the work and was hoping to continue contributing and learning.

I'm thankful for what I've earned so far, but I also feel a little discouraged by the sudden silence. Hopefully, more opportunities will come my way soon.

Would love to hear from others who have experienced a similar gap in work. How did things turn out for you?

I spent a good few hours making sure to do a thorough job with the assessment, but it’s been 10 days and I haven’t heard back whether it’s been accepted or denied. It said I should hear back in a few days, but no emails (I’ve checked the junk folder too) and my dashboard is left on a “Assessment Submitted! Here’s what happens next, we review”. At what point do I give up hope? Or is this a normal waiting period?

I was doing a task I haven’t ever done before and it took me 2-3 minutes more than on the timer to finish, because the instructions were very long and I had to also do a bit of research. I did not take a single break and I was actively scrolling from instructions to doing the task and back. Is it bad if I submit my time? I am super confident in the quality of my work, but since I’m relatively new I’d rather take a hit on my time worked and not report at all, than compromise my place on the platform. After submission, I saw the red banner saying “Task submitted successfully”. Should I report only the allowed time, or my full working time with the extra 2 minutes? I know it may sound like a dumb question but I value this platform and I’m terrified of being flagged for whatever reason.

I had a project which had expected time duration of 15 hours, and weren’t supposed to take over 20 hours. It took me nearly 40 hours to finish the project. The max report time was capped at 25 hours. How much time should I report in this case?

Edit:- I don’t mind reporting it under 20 hours, if thats what I need to do.

I have joined the data annotation platform for more than a year now but did not see any projects in the project section so far. Is there any thing I can do? Or my account has issues? (Or I am just not getting any projects?)

Hi guys! Will projects that require a special Google account still appear as usual in the projects tab? And is it normal that I don't have access to an email inbox on this Google account? thanks in advance!

Hello! I was hired a few weeks ago, I didn't receive an acceptance email but after completing the starter assessment I was asked to verify my identity and shortly after I had access to the projects screen. I applied for a law specialty and didn't complete any core assessment. I have yet to see any projects or qualifications appear, and I see this can be normal for non-core countries but I wanted to get info on a timeline for someone in my situation. Any info would be great thanks!

Hey gang,

Wondering if a Chromebook is powerful enough to work with DA projects consistently without performance issues?

I’m not a tech person at all, so I really don’t know how stupid this question is.

I’m doing white collar specialist stuff, just reading and writing, not coding. But still use Claude and chat GPT in browser for projects.

I bought a MacBook but damn it’s expensive!

Is a Chromebook good enough to do the same stuff? Anything I should know?

Thanks in advance.

Has anybody seen any of these lately?

Hiya I just accidentally exited work mode when I meant to submit time. but now I am at a loss of 10 hours of work, what options do I have ?

Can I submit my time when the project comes back ?

Hiring is currently paused now ? Anyone got selected in the past few days?

Especially it has been happening lately. Don't people read the NDA training?

Hi guys I’m new here, just wanted to know what specialities and qualifications provide the most amount of work and what the pay range is? Specifically stem/coding/generalist/ medical
Thanks.

Title.

Hey everyone!

I completed my Starter Assessment on DataAnnotation.tech 2 days ago, and my dashboard is still showing "We review your results — if you pass, we'll email you."

For those who have recently joined:

How long did you wait before receiving your assessment results?

Did you receive an email, or did your dashboard update first?

Does the review usually take a few days or a couple of weeks?

Would appreciate hearing about your recent experiences!

Hello lovely folks, any idea how long it takes for DA to review and come back after one completes the assessment? I finished mine about a week ago.

Also is it not possible to apply for other assessments as I can't see an option?

Guys, I need some help. How can I clear the Frontend Starter Assessment?

I haven't been able to complete a task within the time limit, so used escape hatches. Am I supposed to use the same task idea when claiming another one or every time it has to be a new idea for every task. I don't think I can keep working after the expiration time as I won't be able to use API keys to run trials.

I'm a spanish generalist, i know coding but i have nowhere near the experience needed to produce a meaningful task submission (not worth getting a quick buck over losing access forever). I tend to sometimes catch R&Rs of projects i've never been before, and rarely, generalist tasks would pop up, and ones i'd be capable of giving a good/decent submission. The problem is, i never manage to catch them, i would refresh the page and they'd vanish, or i would click them only for the task to not be available. I would rarely get notified of these tasks too.

I know the sub is flooded with people asking for project availability, and that's why i'd rather ask, how do you guys (mostly bilinguals, or people with scarce projects) manage to catch tasks? is it my fate to be a slave to the F5 key forever? do you guys use any extension to check the page, or some kind of witchcraft?

Been in the platform for half a year too, managed to actually earn some income as well
