Isabelle Anne,

 

While we cannot elaborate on the test details at this time so as to avoid affecting its results, we can assure you that all freelancers are being treated equally in the test, and that we are not disadvantaging certain freelancers over others. You can continue to take skills tests as you have in the past. If a client has any questions about a freelancer's tests at any point in time, please have them reach out to us.

The only way that could be true would be if all skill test results were hidden, or none were hidden.

It was a direct question: are you or are you not hiding skill test results on profiles?

 

Please answer the direct question.

Well if Upwork is hiding our tests, then they should disable clients from including that "Have you taken any Upwork tests ..." question in their job posts! In any case, since we cannot get a straight answer, I will just have to inform clients about this test anytime I apply so that they don't favor other applicants over me.

I can see the tests in your profile. 

Don't forget to upload a real picture of yourself.

Upwork are running some kind of "experiment" - I can not see anyone's tests from my client account either, even though I can see them from my freelancer account...

As far as "trust" and "those tests" are concerned, I personally think they are worse than useless considering the answers are all over the Internet these days.
