Hi all,

We are no longer awarding free Connects for every interview won or disclosing the number of Connects rewarded in these cases. Unfortunately, we learned from our community that some dishonest customers were gaming the system to get free Connects they didn’t deserve. We occasionally may still give out different amounts of Connects based on factors like the number of jobs available in the marketplace.

Hi Aisha,

Thank you for your message. I see that you are referring to the proposal submitted on Sept 16. I checked and noticed that there was an offer sent directly to you on your proposal. Direct offers and invitations to interview from the client are not eligible for free Connects.

Thank you,

Pradeep

Hello Upwork team,

please I submitted a proposal and got interviewed yesterday but I didn't receive any free connects till now. Could someone please help out with this?

And if I get hired for the first time(or ever) do I get free connects? If yes, then that's another issue to fix as well. Thank you.

In case you do award connects, do you count 48 from when the invite was sent, or when the interview was accomplished, and how would you even know if someone had an interview with a client?

3db72eb5 · ‎09-21-2022

Please review this decision. A lot of new freelancers rely on this feature. You cannot do this to many freelancers due to some rotten fish. Many freelancers don't have the luxury to raise bids or buy connections, Please review this decision.

mayalee99 · ‎10-28-2022

Totally agree I can't purchase connects every time it's too expensive and in some periods you don't even get a job that will pay that off.

riffat-sarwar · ‎09-28-2022

Hi @Andrea, Can someone please check why I did not received interview connects? I applied on many jobs and I received 2 inteview yesterday and got 3 today and I still did not get connects for yesterday interview. Can someone resovle my issue please?

e93adb20 · ‎09-28-2022

Upwork is becoming very unlikeable😣

zakaullahklair · ‎10-05-2022

I replied to the interviews and as per Upwork rules atleast 50 connects can be taken in a week but I was credited only 10 connects instead of 40

b119a92d · ‎10-12-2022

Thank you for the clarification. This is very unfortunate. However, I think that it's unfair for those freelancers like us making an effort to create proposal and win an interview.

aaditi-rasal · ‎10-27-2022

Hi,

I got interviewed for 3 job posts in last 48 hours but did not receive any connects for remaining 2 job interviews ??

Hello. Good day, everyone!

I have been interviewed yesterday, 2 times. But haven't received the connects from it. I received the connect from this job **Edited for Community Guidelines** interview which is around time where the job posts below interviewed me.

Here are the links of the job post:

**Edited for Community Guidelines**

Can you tell me if I can get the connects from it? If not, why?

Thank you.

Hello. That is so sad to hear because what about us, the starting freelancers? You don't have enough money to buy connects. Being interviewed and having connects in exchange from it either hired or not is a big help for us.

3db72eb5 · ‎09-21-2022

It is a terrible thing to hear. You should 1st look after fake job posts and clients rather than closing this feature.

This will cause trouble for new freelancers. Please re-think this decision.

Hey Arjay. Please check my account, too I have given 2 interviews in the last 48 hours but have not received connects for even a single one.
