Global skills

This is a special type of skills in Toloka that show the general competencies of Tolokers, such as text processing or selecting objects in images.

Benefits

• Use global skills if you want to quickly launch a project and recruit Tolokers who are good at certain types of tasks.

• Our experiments show that global skills combined with traditional quality control methods increase the correctness and consistency of labeling.

Features

• Requesters don't create this type of skills. Global skills are created by the system.

• Projects created from certain templates are taken into account. For example, if the project is based on the Video comparison (Side-by-side) template, then the Tolokers will receive the Video SbS global skill.

• Global skills are assigned according to the percentage of correct answers.

• Global skills are updated daily by the Toloka team.

Usage

To use this feature, select + Add filter → Skills → Choose global skill and specify the restriction for the selected skill in the added filter.

For example, the restriction Global skills: Video SbS (monthly) > 80 means “Select Tolokers who complete the video comparison tasks better on average than 80% of other Tolokers”.
