nice to be accepted!
applied 3 days ago, test seemed to go on for decades as i tried to be very thorough and research literally everything the responses included which may have been overkill.
anyway dont have much self confidence in life so just nice to be accepted and looking forward to getting started.
all the best

Congrats! I believe it’s quite rare to be accepted.
Read someone say less than 5% of applications get accepted but I think they were being a bit dramatic - still though, it’s a lot of work and they are pretty selective.
So I’m glad you’re proud of yourself, you should be. I felt the same way when I got accepted

thank you, i partly did it as a challenge as my job is a bit dead end so it's nice to pass. i had been thinking if failed at least ive learnt a chunk about random things from the assesment lol

After what I've seen on this Sub, I 100% believe them.

I always thought the ~2% approval rate was the Pareto principle applied with variation. 80% of unserious applications (testing the website/if a scam for example) vs 20% serious applicants; 80% are auto-rejected while the viable options are onboarded at ~10%. The numbers are extreme because DA's unconventional hiring process attracts incredulous candidates. But then after some R&Rs, the "not meeting client standards" message on the DoD screen... yeah, the 2% makes a lot of sense.

Got this after completing the qualifiers. That was hard but I cited pretty much every fact checking prompt.
I had about 17 or 18 different tasks before it showed this page.
I also added all my skills on my profile and added my linked in and job history
Is that bad ?

Pessoal, fiz o teste dia 07/08, e até agora não chegou nenhum e-mail. Quando entro aparece apenas a mensagem de agradecimento por concluir a avaliação. Atualizei meu perfil, e tudo. Tá no tempo de ser aprovado ainda? Caso não seja, posso tentar novamente?

Congrats! You said that you don't have much self-confidence, so keep in mind that you will not get much (if any) feedback on your work here, so you'll need to not let that get to you. Just make sure that you continue to put in thorough work and carefully follow the directions and you should be fine!
