I decided to dig deep and looked at the Open jobs. In those 4, the client already hired freelancer for 2 jobs, yet those jobs are still in "Open" state for whatever reason. I got confused.
Karthiga, I can't tell you if hire rate is reliable, but even when a client has already hired a freelancer, unless they close (not cancel) the job, or change the job visibility to Private, the job will be displayed when you do a job search. I've also looked at several Upwork tutorials meant for new clients, and none of them mention doing this, even though it would help freelancers if the client closed the job when they're no longer hiring anyone else.
