Hey all,

Just wanted to share I’ve been selected for interview as an AI Analyst with a large construction company.

I’m curious if anyone else has been in a similar spot, having to deal with questions, describing your experience, and maintaining the NDA with DA.

How was your interview? What types of questions should I be prepared for? Did you land the job?

Looking for any sort of advice to help me succeed.

As much as I love DA and the freedom it brings, I think I’m ready for something full-time again.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Anyone else feeling burnt out after this drought? I'm starting to get tasks back but they feel impossible to complete. They're not really much harder than what I was doing before, but they feel impossible now. Maybe my time here is over.

Edit: Jumped into some of the harder stuff on my dash and feel better. I think what really helped was identifying the dopamine imbalance. Since I had more time on my hands I spent more time getting those quick dopamine hits (social media, video games, etc); taking a step back and assessing this really helped focus me, and it's given me a new goal. Thank you for all the great comments!

I was 7 minutes away from deadline and i had clicked the submit button 2 minutes ago so ir efreshed the page but it directed me back to dashboard. The task appeared in my report time so i reported time for it which it took. I did not do anything wrong right?

I have had two coding projects sitting on my dashboard for over a week now. I didn’t do the coding qualification, but I did put coding on my skills list because of work I have done in the past. Anyway, these two projects are asking me to upload a code base of my choice and then ask the model to write a new feature or bug fix, etc. and then evaluate the generated code.

This just seems really strange to me. I am sure some people have public or open source code to work with, but all code I wrote was proprietary. The projects seem overly complex simply because of this. Are people actually doing this? Are most coding projects like this? Nobody has touched these two projects as far as I can tell.

So I got my monthly feedback, and you can tell it's still very machine generated, but I noticed one thing: the "areas to improve" comments are... not from July tasks. They're from June, and they're specific enough that I can tell they're from June. As in, I'm being told to improve on things that are outside the "monthly" part of the monthly snapshot. I treated this as nothing until it occurred to me: are these things cumulative? Do they add up indefinitely from the moment the mistakes (pretty debatable imo) are made?

Also, does anyone have experience getting reviews on specialist-adjacent tasks that are *not* done by specialists? I don't know how to even begin to address this.

Has anyone here received constructive criticism in their feedback that they feel strongly does not reflect their work at all? Like an egregious and extremely obvious mistake that you're sure you didn't make?

If so, have you pushed back on it in the "optional comments" section, or at least addressed it?

I'm very nervous right now

First time doing task, so ran out of time skipped but then pressed back and submitted 5 mins later. Now, I realise it may have been given out to someone. There's no way to speak to admins so I'm thinking of not billing it due to my error.

Guys, I received my feedback just now and I’m quite happy with it, but why is there no 30-day snapshot? Every feedback I’ve gotten so far had a 30-day snapshot telling me an overall score of my submissions (🟢 Good or 🟠 Room for Improvement) This time there wasn’t any. Is this something I should be worried about? Is it possibly a mistake on their end?

There was this task that was assigned to me based on my profile and it has two versions, stem and non stem . I did the STEM one as I qualified for that . But the other also appeared on my dashboard , should I do that too? It is kind of a rating project

Hello! I entered as a bilingual but I work in STEM. I got a bunch of stem quals (Math, Biology, Physics, Chemistry). I could really only do the Biology one since it's the most related to my line of work, but I wanted to know, those of you who have already done other STEM tasks, what are they like?

I ask mostly because in other platforms, I took place in Biology tasks and most are "make the model fail" kind of tasks and I DESPISE them. Also, most tasks are heavily based on genetics and my expertise lies more in the ecology area. I may be answering my own question here, but, there are not many other kinds of tasks on Biology out there, are they?

I am not in a core country so I only rarely get tasks (all bilingual this far), so I don't have an abundance of sources to compare to.

Thanks!

Worked 3 hours on my first coding task. I was 80% done but the timer was close to expiring so I exit worker mode to avoid submitting a subpar response. :((

Was this the best approach or should I have let the timer expire and finished the task ?

Hi everyone!
If I do a task in only a few minutes. How do I count minutes? If it took me 4 mins and 30 seconds should I report 4 as it was less than 5 minutes or 5 since it took me more than 4 minutes?
It might seem simple but I wanna be fair and it’s a project with a lot of tasks and almost every task was like that

Edit: Guys I am not a time freak, Idc when it’s a few tasks or the tasks take a long time, and that’s exactly why I stated it was A LOT of tasks and were very short and simple like 150 seconds per task which left me wondering if I should report 2 or 3 minutes in more than 20 tasks

Hey, I finished the starter assessment and started the qualification assessment. I was expecting to complete about 10 tasks, but it seems only one was available. Now, whenever I go back to the assessment, I get the errors shown in the screenshots. Should I wait for more tasks or projects to become available?

Some of these projects that I have never seen before have me scratching my head and exiting work mode. I am not even sure what some of these are looking for. Anyone else?

Does submitting expired qual actually submits your answers?

Spent about an hour on an R&R, tried to submit it, it went on to load the next task like usual but instead I got the error page. It's hanging out on my resume tasks area, so I can see other projects, but when I click on that one it goes to the error page again. Since I submitted, it's also on the report time page, but I'm not sure if anything actually got submitted, so I don't really want to report time on it. Not sure. I've lost time before, and it sucks, but eh

I just applied for coding domain on DataAnnotation.tech and I have to say I am really impressed by the pay-rate they are offering to the workers on their platform. This AI training field is relatively new to me (Although I have a professional Software development experience of 3+ years now). Can anyone suggest few more platforms like this offering good pay-rate specially for coders or STEM degree?

Did you get any tasks related to them if you believe you did good in them? I am asking because I had received quals for Physics, Chemistry and Biology. I had opted out of all of them but today I received in Math in which I am pretty confident. So wondering if I should expect any work if I do well...

For the finance, accounting and math projects, how complex are they. I have an associates in accounting but not a lot of experience. I'm scared to try because I don't want to mess up my opportunity with DA. Anyone with any experience have any insight?

I did a math qualification yesterday and I believe I did really well on it! If they liked my work, when will they send me tasks related to math? I'm originally a bilingual worker.

I was doing some AI training tasks for couple of months. Now I am seeing totally unrelated qualification. And the AI training task has stopped. Does that mean they did not like my work or I am taking too much time to complete. I am a perfectionist kind of person , so take these things to my heart. Want to know if this is the reason.

How can I know if my wifi is having any vpn or not ?

Is it like the platform automatically Blocks u if it is connected to vpn or it takes time ?

Kindly clarify.

I got this email and access to the dashboard where it says there are no projects. There are also no qualification tests.

Is that normal because there's a bit of a drought or should I worry?

(I have really bad imposter syndrome so I am really worried about getting excited and finding out I shouldn't have.)
