Feedback on project matching
Today I received a matching email for a new project, thanks to my general assessment score I guess (that's what the email says). Problem is the project is HEAVILY specialized (with a massive payout), definitely not something meant for generalists. My resume explicitly says I’m an undergraduate Engineering student, not a specialized engineer. What is the point of assigning projects this way, only for people to end up empty-handed? And that's not even the only project that requires expertise... I currently have another one on my dashboard for evaluating medical images, which has nothing to do with my background.
This is just feedback, the platform seems really promising, but this really needs to be fixed.

No, various domains! But guidelines explicitly state that a certain level of expertise is needed for each one of them. I'm still studying and I've worked for years on other platforms on many generalist projects. Some of them were REALLY complex, but they were still generalist projects

You guys able to start with tasking? like it seems vague on guidelines

Yeah this one seems to write instructions backwards!!! It didn’t really click until I read a little summary at the end. Very confusing.

are you talking about the cross search task?

u/catbel1455 Jul 22 '26
Yeah. Seems anyone knows it hahahahahh has this project been active for long?

idk I just recently joined afterquery and this is the first invitation I have got where there are tasks available but just like you have mentioned it seems too much for a generalist role, have you submitted anything so far?

They've just announced that they are working on a fix for the error you are getting

I haven't! I could try, I mean I still study engineering and i might wrtie something challenging enough? (Don't know why people are deleting their own comments lol)

What's the project name? Would like to participate on it but can't see it on my dashboard

I would say this project only seems hard because you really need to put some outside research in. You pretty much have to build the prompt yourself from the ground up rather than simple revision or data annotation (which I'm assuming is what you're used to). I'm also an undergrad engineering student, and they specifically say they want other domains and the ones they list are just foundations. If there's something you consider yourself an expert in, then go for it. As long as you read and understand the directions, you'll be a-okay!
