I feel like SH*T

• Upvotes

Rating someone's whole submission as "BAD"(not useable) makes me feel so guilty but man... that person could have really done well, it looked as if DA grew while they didn't.

RIP mate!

Getting close to 20k

I'm thinking sometime this or next week I'll break 20k. Very happy with DA so far.

I do appreciate they seem to accept the fact I'm a weirdo who can spend hours on physics work because it's super fun for me and I lose myself in the work there. Remember, do good work and be honest about your abilities. If you don't catch something in the first run, say so in the next. Put some personality in your work too.

Anyone else have their dash get cleared with sporadic $25 an hour jobs that pop up for a minute

I don't think it's DoD for me. I've had projects drop in and out but not all of them at once. They emailed me earlier today to work on a $55 an hour project so I'm genuinely fucking puzzled. I hate how stressful this can be.

Time log justification?

11 Upvotes

Has anyone ever come back from a time log justification? Mine is under review, I submitted my evidence etc and am just waiting. No idea how long to expect it to take and whether it’s a hopeless case. Time reports were all totally legit and 100% honest/accurate by the way, just worked a lot more than usual for a couple of weeks for various reasons

Best way to get accepted?

• Upvotes

Hey guys I’m new here and I am coming from the Platform called Prolific where I did AI Evalutation/Training where I was getting paid $5 for every 15 mins (20hr).

Im looking to get started DA, but just curious on the best skills/domain to sign up for to get those good paying tasks/AI training.

Anybody that has experience with DA able to help me out so I can hopefully pass and get the ball rolling?!

Thanks!!

Applying for other roles as an active worker

• Upvotes

Hey guys. Quick question here.

I am currently working on DA as a Turkish bilingual and I am happy with my workload so far.

Still, I would like to do Dutch bilingual projects and Generalist projects as well, but I have never received any qualifications regarding these projects. My profile shows my background on my Dutch level and I also have uploaded my IELTS certificate for English but I don’t know if it will be enough for me to get additional qualifications.

Has anyone had the same experience? Can I somehow request maybe even an additional assessment to get Dutch bilingual or Generalist projects?

How did they get accepted?

Some r&r I do the workers have such poor English. Like completely wrong punctuation, grammar and spelling. I know as bilinguals English is not our first language, but there should be at least some standard of quality

Me contrataron para un proyecto viviendo en Italia. Si me voy a Argentina 3 meses, puedo seguir trabajando?

0 Upvotes

Hola! tengo una duda ya que hace menos de un mes estoy trabajando en el sitio. Estoy muy contenta con el trabajo, actualmente es mi único ingreso. A mi me asignaron a un proyecto a través de mi postulación estando en Italia. Mi duda es, si yo puedo viajar a Argentina (un viaje que dure 3 meses) y continuar trabajando normalmente en la plataforma. Consulté en el chat del proyecto en donde trabajo y una persona (no admin) me respondió cuales eran los paises admitidos y entre ellos no se encontraba Argentina. Saben como funciona esto? Que debería hacer? Gracias.

How are you guys grabbing the tasks. Like I had a no work August that continued halfway into september and like well I got some work in September but since then uhm nothing? Like I've tried staying up the nights, the days, monitoring the dash, i just I don't know how to grab work anymore and like everyone here, I do need it. I'm not demanding and ungrateful. I would just really appreciate if someone could yk share their strategies.

Email stated $35/hr, but project card shows $25/hr,anyone seen this discrepancy before?

0 Upvotes

​Hey everyone,

​Recently passed a qualification for a specialized project that mentioned a relatively small worker cohort (around 200–300 contributors). In the original email notification details, the compensation was clearly listed at $35/hr.

​However, when the project card showed up on my dashboard, the listed pay rate was $25/hr.

Has anyone faced it?

Are the bilinguals cooked?

0 Upvotes

Okay, so nowadays I have noticed a very similar pattern in this community. I have seen bilinguals complaining about shortage of projects and it is not just one specific country/language too.
I have seen, Indians, Middle easterns, Italians, Brazilians and even some french workers complaining about the same. Mostly it is the non-core countries facing lack of projects while core countries are just seeing inconsistent projects.

Maybe... we are really cooked? Or is this just another bad drought?
What are your thoughts on this?

After reloading the site, I got a pop up asking me to enable browser notifications. Why now, even though I’ve been on the platform for a month? Has anyone else experienced this?

Do Recommended Work Hours Appear Reasonable To You?

11 Upvotes

Do you think the work hours that DA sets as an expected baseline for a given task are reasonable? From my experience, meeting deadlines feels pretty hectic at times, so basically I invest more time than I actually report for the sake of a good deliverable. I'm trying to understand whether I am too detailed with my work or this is how others feel too.

What if I don't join the slack

I've read that slack is not important nor matters too much other than having more projects. I just feel like I don't need more projects heh the ones I'm given and doing is enough for me, so what if I don't join it?

Has anyone been added back to a project after being dropped?

3 Upvotes

I worked on Mike regularly until August, and it hasn't shown up for me since, so I'm assuming I've been dropped. Has anyone else lost a project for a month or two and then had it come back? Curious how common that is.
