Hello,
I believe there's been a mistake made in the calculation of my job success score. It was previously at 78% and I just successfully completed two jobs were I was given good feedbacks and a five star rating. Yet, after my account was updated on the 29th, it dropped to 74%. I've been working hard to get my JSS back to 80% and I believe there's been a mistake. What do I do?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Can I just know any client give me internally bad review? If yes I don't want their name just want to know how many clients give me? How many work to complete my 100% success rate?

Please let me know how to fix this problem as soon as possible. I need honest suggestions guys.

See if you can figure out why the clients gave you a lower rating. Use the Academy for more information on improving proposals and job conditions.
All you can do now, is to try to fix what went wrong, and do the best job anyone can. Make sure you are applying to jobs where you hold every requirement. Also, the more professional your profile, the more professional clients you will attract. The Academy will give you ideas on how to have a great profile. You're wasting the first sentence of ta search by using greetings, etc. That first, short sentence is all the clients see in a search.

Hello,
My JSS is decreased to 69% after closing last contract even if I got 5.0 star feedback and also contacted client about private feedback and he said that he didn't give any negative star or comment. Reason of closing contract is after it's paused, no longer needed. Thanks in advance for your support.

Hi Muhammad,
I'm sorry to learn about your score drop. I'm afraid we won't be able to go into detail on how specific contracts have affected your score. I want to clarify that even if a client changes their feedback on a contract, they won't be able to edit the private feedback they originally left.
Feb 28, 2024 11:40:08 AM by Muhammad U
Appreciate your kind assistance,
Alright, I understand that.
Well, I have completed a job last week and it will be added to my JSS next week as you're updating JSS every two weeks, can it be possible that you can add it to my JSS now so that my eligible weeks stop going down as this not my fault!

Hello,
I had JSS of 88 percent but i didnt do any work and it dropped to 59 percent. I dont have any new feedbacks i dont know why this happend?
Mar 1, 2024 05:22:58 PM by Pradeep H
Hi Luka,
Your Job Success Score that is seen on your Upwork profile is updated every two weeks. Your score may also change because it is based on a rolling time window. We calculate your score using different time frames and show the best score from your 6-month, 12-month, and 24-month JSS. Sometimes, a contract can fall out of that calculation, making your score change a lot without any recent activity. For example, a contract that is 6-months and one day old will not count in your 6-month window anymore.

2 weeks ago, on the 18th of February, my JSS went down to a 74% due to a 2.6 star review.
Since then, I have received 2, 5 star reviews which should have boosted my JSS score, instead it dropped it down even further to a 71%.
Why is that so?
I have looked at every article and I am eligible to a boost in my JSS, not a downgrade.

Hi Shahmir,
I'm sorry to learn about your score drop. I'm afraid we won't be able to comment on an individual score or how specific contracts affect it. Your JSS can change because:

Hello, I am tirelessly trying to figure out what's going on. I am fairly new to Upwork (approximately 3 months). I have had all successful projects and 5-star reviews. The entire time, I've had a 100% JSS score. However, I woke up this morning and my JSS score is now at 84%, even though I have all positive reviews!
I am very troubled by this, as I have invested so much time, energy, and money into Upwork so far.
I am committed to creating a positive experience for all of my clients on Upwork, and this sudden drop in my JSS score is extremely troubling.
Please advise.

You cannot know your private feedbacks, it is hidden. 8\10 = 80% JSS. Some clients think that 7\10 is good feedback. All your 5 stars is ts cool but JSS calculating in other ways.
Apr 28, 2024 07:16:35 PM by Sheena A
Thank you Mykola for your insight. Yes, I can imagine that it's very frustrating as a freelancer when a client leaves a wonderful public review but can just as easily sabotage their JSS with private feedback.
I wonder if Upwork took a poll from freelancers on whether they like the private feedback ability to hinder your JSS score or not... what the results would be.
Mar 3, 2024 12:37:30 PM by Muhammad Salman A
Hi, I have projects with 5 star ratings but still not getting any traction. I am having the same experience without accepting any new offer my JSS has dropped significantly. I dont know what is going on with Upwork lately. This is not acceptable at all.
Apr 28, 2024 07:13:45 PM by Sheena A
Yes, Muhammad, this seems to be the case with so many. I am learning that so many things "play into" your JSS score. It's tough as a freelancer for the algorithm to be so rigorous because most are doing all they can to manage the projects properly ensuring the success of the project and satisfaction of the client.

Hello,
I have 6 jobs on my profile.2 of them are left with no review , 3 are five star , and one is 4 star.How can my jss be 64 percent?Earlier it was 88 but idk why this happend?

Dear Upwork!
In first let me thank you for providing such a nice platform.
Well, my JSS is dropping without any reason and you can see everyone is complaining same and I believe there must be a technical issue please fix it at your earliest to help each other grow!

I had a JSS of 99%, and all of my jobs went super successful with straight 5 stars. Out of nowhere, it dropped to 92%. I know it depends on private feedback, but how is it possible that every client is giving fake feedback publicly and reviewing poorly in private? I think there is some miscalculation. Please fix this ASAP.

It doesn't meant that you got poor private feedback from "every" client; all it takes is one client whose private feedback is less than enthusiastic, especially if that contract was high-priced compared with your other contracts. Feedback can also drop when contract(s) that had positive feedback become too old to count towards your JSS any more.

Hi Upwork,
I'm so dissapointed because of my JSS,
I completed a small project in December 14 and got 4star. The client wanted to hire me again. Review was good but he dropped 4 star mistakely.
After a week of getting 4 star, my JSS dropped to 90% from 100%. Now it's 86% where I didn't make anything wrong.
It's affecting my freelance career.
Everytime I lost my 100% JSS, was my client's mistakes. But now I'm so dissapointed.
I know about Upworks JSS calculator but I want to know that is there any way to resolve this issue?
I hope you'll help me out.
Best Regards
Md Salim Hossain
