Updating your Experience Level

[Ramanand Kumar D]

Thanks for making this FEATURE active. I just applied the same to my profile, and hope to see more rewarding bid requests soon.

Where this feature is showing in the profile?
Have you set this to Intermediate or Expert?
I think I would Expert most of my skills, But many clients did'nt approch the Experts. Mainly clients are approaching to Intermediate level, 
I am little confused what should i mentioned to them?

Thanks

Hi Arsalan,

You can check and set the experience level by going to Settings > Profile Settings. We advise freelancers to reflect their skills and experience level accurately on their profiles.

Thank you.

Regarding this future it was added -What if I have selected experience level, but when I search for my self, my profile doesn't appear under any experience level? I can find my self in search resuts only if experience level is not selected.

Many thanks!

I'm having the same issue. I set my Experience level few months ago but still can find myself only with Experience level option unselected.

re: "What if I have selected experience level, but when I search for my self, my profile doesn't appear under any experience level? I can find my self in search resuts only if experience level is not selected."

Doing a search for oneself within the Upwork website is notoriously difficult. I gave up trying to do searches myself long, long ago, just weeks after I started working on Upwork.

I can easily find you with experience level "Expert":

But you can find me only with experience level unset:

Though I have set up my experience level too. Why?
