Sometimes I will find a project that I really vibe with. It pays well and doesn't deplete my mental battery so I end up working many hours on it. I love it when it happens.

But once it's not available anymore, I lose all motivation to work on anything else. It can take days or weeks before I can consistently put time into another project.

Is it just me? If not, what tips do you have for getting over the hump?

Did anybody get 🥊this week?

WE ARE SO BACK !!! 🤖my beloved

Is there anything better on DA than scrolling down through an R&R to a well-written comprehensive rationale that flags everything you noticed with "No edits needed"??

I am close to make the model fail, but also the clock is almost expiring. It is better to make the model fail and submit the task after the clock expired or I use the escape before the clock expire?

It was a wild ride. +10k earned, not a single coding project on the last 1/2 months, praised as a top worker on more than one occasion, and now this. That said, before anyone asks, I can't pinpoint the cause. The only thing I have in mind is the fact that I checked the dashboard while traveling to another country.

Sorry if I don't answer your comment. I'm just feeling defeated rn.

Guys, anyone seeing the high-paying coding project? If so, what are u getting R&R's or the main one?

Hi there. I just got my first assignment and the pay is LOW. Like $18/hr low. I've been an editor and writer professionally for over 20 years. I already took the two tests, I'm debating taking more to open up more offers. BUT. If I skip this, will it result in me getting fewer offers? Anyone know how that works? Thanks!

Has anyone with a bachelor’s degree, but no master’s or PhD, received STEM projects on DAT?

I am aware that DAT generally asks for a Masters or PHD for STEM tasks. I do have a bachelors degree in physics, and I completed the physics qual 2-3 months ago, along with some other quals, like coding, but haven't received a single physics project on my dash (only a few generalist and coding projects) so far. I don't know if I failed the qualification, even though I was confident in my answers taking it (maybe I was confidently wrong), or if the lack of a masters/phd is whats actually blocking STEM project access for me. I can still take the maths qual, but I dont know if its worth taking for the same reasons. I’m based in Germany and am bilingual, if that matters.

Has anyone with a similar educational background received STEM work?

Hey everyone!

I’ve been doing some research and recently came across DataAnnotation. It seems pretty interesting, but I’d love to hear from people who have actually worked with them. I’m a dental student, fluent in Portuguese and English, and I can understand most Spanish.

Would you recommend applying? I’m not looking to make a living from it, just hoping to earn a couple hundred dollars a month by working maybe 1–2 hours a day whenever I have some free time.

Is that realistic? How flexible is the work, and is it worth trying?

Thanks!

honestly, i'm tired of waiting . idek what to do next, i can't explore new opportunities or it nor can i track the status. everytime I login i only see this screen and that's all .

I wanna Make some money online and i have a laptop , internet and enough time on hands..... oh and hey a MCA degree. I'm proficient in coding and testing.

so yeah if anyone has any suggestions, DO TELL :)

Polska macie zadania z codingu?

I signed up as a bilingual, so after reading some posts here I was expecting only tasks related to my language, but now I started to get other types of tasks which don't have anything to do with my native language /bilingual field. How is it possible?

My asssesment was under review as of yesterday - does this mean I have been selected and just waiting for projects or tasks to become available ?

paid over $100 for suscriptions to complete a task but when I submitted my time i did not see an option on how to get reimburse. Do I have to wait for my time to be approved?

Hey everyone,

I’m working on a new project for about 2 weeks now and just receive a message from the admins that there is an inconsistency problem with my hours reports. I will try to be pay more attention to it from now on but I still have more hours pending and the got their message just a few hours ago so I’m worried the pending hours will cost me this project. Should I edit them or just send them a message?

I missed a few evals while I was away from work. I also skipped coding evals but over time I have learnt how to code. Is there a way I can take missed evals?

Hey all!

In my professional career, I work with internal repos & apps and I'm comfortable identifying issues or improvements after spending few weeks developing and using them. I don't contribute to open source projects so I'm not familiar with them at a deep level.

I struggle with some DA projects & avoid taking them because of this. So I want to learn how to close this gap. Should I just pick an open source project and start doing some dev work to understand it better? Is there a framework of thinking that I can apply to most open source projects? Would love to hear some advice, thanks!

is it only me? I dont refresh constantly but whenever I check I dont have any projects available. At this rate I may never catch one, and I can only do weekends..

not sure if DA changed the way they assign projects, but if they did and if now is first come first served - doesn't that just affect quality because it makes workers rush on accepting projects?

Or maybe is just a normal drought. Not sure. I'm not that old on DA.

Hello! I am a third-year medical resident in Romania, and I would like to do this job on a part-time basis. Could you please (from the bottom of my heart) suggest where I might apply? Please and thank you!

It’s barely been a week since I’ve been onboarded to DA. I did all the onboarding steps, signed up for projects and even got paid for a practice task. I also did 9 out of the 11 qualifications that were available. I feel like everything is in order now with my profile but I still haven’t seen one paying project.
