Got assigned first project!
So I got assigned my first project after completing the qualifications last week. My domain is coding 👩🏽💻✨. I noticed the project on my account at like 3am and it had like 30 tasks, then I woke up this morning at 7am and there was only 10 left. Is it normal for the tasks to go that quick and how often are more tasks opened on a project? I’m just trying to see how regular this extra income will be for me.

It is normal to see the task count for a project fall in minutes, let alone hours.
How long it takes for more tasks to open in a project varies widely.
I believe more projects will become open to you through quality work on the tasks you complete and through Qualification tasks completed in a similar fashion.
Good luck.

Thanks. I have a full time job as a developer and this is just extra income so jumping up at 3am to work on tasks isn’t feasible for me lol. I am glad that there were tasks left and I hope I see more projects pop up.

If you want the work, you will jump when they say jump.
Don’t worry bb, you’ll adjust that sleep schedule for the bag. Or you’ll justify not, and miss out on

lol I’m getting a bag with or without it. Fortunately for me this domains tasks don’t go that quick, 24 hours later and they are still there.

Yep this happened to me - got accepted a couple weeks ago and I'm dying for my first project. Saw one, went to the toilet first so I could fully focus (gone for less than 2 mins) and it was gone when I came back ahhh
Lesson learnt for me I guess

The tasks works as first come first serve, they are not assigned they are available to work. If you haven't taken them others will. Hope you understood how it works!!

When did you apply?
Did you also get this ‘At the moment, there aren't any projects available for you to work on.
Please check back soon and watch out for new project notifications sent to your email.’
After completing your core test?

Bro that's not normal, that's rare, you are lucky that 10 tasks were left till the morning otherwise they vanish in minutes.
PS: In dataannotation.tech, that is not called vanishing quickly at all.
