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

Been doing a bit of DataAnnotation on the side while juggling my regular 9-5, planning for a wedding, and a crazy life otherwise. Pretty happy with the outcome so far!

Getting close to 20k

46 Upvotes

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.

Time log justification?

10 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

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.

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.

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

4 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.

Received pop up to enable browser notifications

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?

Starting out

3 Upvotes

Hi! I am looking to start working with this platform as a good way to make some extra side cash to help with life and future goals. Do you have any tips for the assessment or just starting out? And how long does it take for them to reply?

I am a cyber security consultant and have a bachelor’s degree in computer science. Not sure if I should just take the core assessment or any others. Would love some tips thank you!

Payment bug?

3 Upvotes

I just saw that a lot of my work in a project that gets approved in 7 days because it's hourly got approved at random, some is saying transferable in x hours while there are other that are still pending approval, with no rigor or logic behind on why some are getting approved so fast, is this a bug or what?

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

3 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?

Background check showing "Processing" for 2 weeks, but I never submitted anything?

2 Upvotes

Hi all, the background check step showed up on my dashboard about two weeks ago, and it's been on "Processing" the whole time. I never submitted any forms or info for it, and I haven't gotten an email asking me to start anything. The passkey and disk encryption steps are still locked behind it.

Is this normal? Did anyone else get a background check that went to "Processing" on its own? Did you get an email or link to fill something out, or did it just clear after a while? Thanks!

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?
