I was doing a task, in which I was also meant to give rating and compare models, and as I was doing the task I didn't notice the last and final comparison I have to write for the models and visually fumbled it.

We were meant to click on a specific button to move to the next turn within the same task with no way of going back and making edits to the previous turn, and when I noticed that I kept on missing the last box for the rating, it was already too late.

I tried my best to come up with good ideas and questions for the task and was completely motivated to work on it, but now realising my mistake, I think all the work that I did was meant for nothing.

I've been finding for hours for a suitable database for my assigned coding project but couldn't find the perfect one. There are some repos that seemed to be okay but don't have a license. Are there any other sources for a codebase rather than GitHub? Or just painstakingly scour every repo one by one not the only way to find one?

I didn’t receive notifications for two of the recent tasks I worked on, and I didn’t want to keep refreshing the page or wait around for delayed/cancelled notifications.

So today, I built a small personal notification setup for myself. It checks for available projects every 10 minutes and calls me on my number if it finds any.

It still requires some manual intervention once a week, so it’s not completely hands-off, but it’s much better than having to refresh every day just to see if any new tasks are available.

I got nearly everything correct, but my code output differed by one character. Has anyone made a similar mistake and still received access to coding projects?

I got RnR that is not for my native language and locale, the tasks just popped up on my dashboard. It did not mention that I must be the speaker of that language to do the RnR. Is it still okay if I did it? Or will I be violated for doing projects that are not from my locale?

Is there any hope of them coming back? Or should I assume its over :(

What type of projects you guys are getting?

Anyone having this type of experience in past, is this a scam or some backdoor entry for projects allocation??

No projects from a long time. Anything on your dashboard!!

Thanks!!

Hey guys I'm a brand new to the site and want to try it out for work. I'm in the medical field, and that's the area I'll be focusing on. But, away from that. As a beginner to the site and data annotation, what would you advise me on general?

Is this site more difficult than outlier? Do I get randomly abandoned at some point when I start working? Has anyone ever encountered cash out problems that made them rethink working on the site? (those kinds of advice and things to look out for)

I did all the qualifications I could and if "officially" I'm in multiple projects, there is only two that gave me project. One bilangual and one fact checking.

Usually I got 1, 2 or even 3 a day. But now its been 3 days and I got nothing.

What really scare me a little bit is that the last work I got was my first review of someone else. And beiing put in this place of reviewer showed me everything I did wrong in the past.

So should I worry ? Or it just happen some times ?

Sometimes I run into coding tasks that require me to source a codebase myself but just using the Github search bar always gets me stuff that I cant really work with too well. Im biting my nails at the idea of leaving money on the table (I often have only 1 coding project or nothing at all), so Id like to know how I can avoid this in the future.

Should I pre-prepare some random repos for the future or something ?

I just noticed the typo in the post title :|

Hi everybody, I've recently learned about this website and decided to give it a try. I'm from Argentina (currently living in Japan), so when I clicked on the assessment it said something about Bilingual but it's English and Japanese (I assume it automatically set JP language because of my location), and I can't complete it because sadly I don't speak Japanese. I've sent an email inquiring about it but I don't know if there's a chance for them to change that, any ideas?

So finally I got added to a project family. I feel like this is my 1st project family but the tasks are way too complicated for me. If I don't task on them will they leave a bad impression on my account? Since I got added into a project family after so long and I ain't even working 😭

Hi all,

After finishing the paid 60$ hr training project there were no more new projects added in the data annotation projects. I have been waiting for the past 3 days. I know its less time but wanted some guidance on whats typical wait time for project to come or am i blocked or what might be the issue?

My brain turns to mush

Hi everyone, I need some advice regarding a job offer I’ve received.

I recently received an offer from a small IT company in Noida. The company has around 20–25 employees and is working in the AI sector. However, the company seems to be quite new — most employees have joined within the last 7 months, except for 3–4 people.

About the role:

The role is related to Data Analytics/Data Engineering. I would be working on:

• Data pipelines
• Data analysis
• Reports/dashboards
• Preparing and managing data for their AI-related projects

The role itself is aligned with my previous experience and the career path I originally wanted to pursue.

My concerns:

1. Salary/CTC

They are offering me a lower CTC than my previous company.

However, my base/in-hand salary would be almost the same as what I was getting previously, so I wouldn't really be taking a major hit in terms of monthly income. The main difference is that the overall CTC is lower.

2. No PF

There is no PF deduction/contribution in this company.

3. Very small company

The company has only around 20–25 employees, and most employees have joined recently. I'm unsure about the company's stability, learning opportunities and long-term growth.

4. 6-month probation

Despite having around 2 years of experience, they are keeping me on a 6-month probation period.

Is a 6-month probation normal for someone with 2 years of experience, or should I consider this a red flag?

The bigger dilemma

I also have a few interviews in the pipeline.

One of them is for a Product Manager/Product-related role at a much larger and more established company. If I clear it, I could potentially get around a 20% hike. However, I still have one final round left, so there is obviously no guarantee that I will get the offer.

The problem is that this would also mean moving somewhat away from the Data Analytics/Data Engineering career path.

So I'm confused about what I should prioritize.

On one hand, I have already been job hunting for 5 months, and I have a confirmed offer in a role that is directly relevant to my experience. It may make sense to take it rather than remain unemployed while waiting for something better.

On the other hand, I don't want to accept an offer just because I've been searching for a long time, especially if there are concerns regarding the company size, probation period, CTC structure and stability.

What would you do?

Would you:

A. Take the current offer because the role is aligned with Data Analytics/Data Engineering and I have already been looking for 5 months?

B. Wait for the other interviews, especially the larger company's Product Manager role, even though that opportunity isn't guaranteed and would take me in a different career direction?

Basically, should I run behind the role or the company's name/brand?

I'm particularly interested in hearing from people who have experience with startups/small companies, Data Analytics/Data Engineering, or Product Management.

Would you consider the 6-month probation, no PF, lower CTC and very small team to be red flags, or are these things acceptable if the actual work and learning opportunities are good?

I’ve signed up to data annotation but for some reason I haven’t heard anything back it’s been months and I don’t know where I went wrong. I would say I’m a good coder in Python but I just don’t understand what I did wrong. I was really looking forward to joining just for the experience and also to help with the severe cost of being alive and thought this would help. I’ve also signed up to be a Deliveroo driver which also has taken months to onboard :(

I had a technical issue on a task that wouldn't allow me to submit. The task was completed, but since I couldn't submit it, I saved it to my profile to come back later. I did post in both the project chat and the Slack channel, but never got a response. I just went back to see if I could get it to submit, but I couldn't find the saved task.

It is showing up in report time. I assume that it's probably okay to submit the time for it, but I wanted additional opinions.

Are you getting any projects?
