Hello!

I got my first job yesterday and I have already started working on this project.  I have one active milestone. Suddenly a few minutes ago I  received an email from Upwork that my profile has been set to private due to not earning any money. Please help me to resolve this issue so that my profile becomes public again and I can continue to submit proposals to win more jobs. Thank you. 

Regards, 

Suraiya A.

Hi Gina and Suraiya,

Your profile visibility has been reset back to public. When your profile is set to private, your profile is not visible in search results, but the clients can still view your profile once you submit a proposal. For more information, please check out this help article. Thank you!

Hello,

My profile status is showing "Locked Private". May I ask why it happens and where this function hits on my profile? What is the basic reason for this? Can I not apply for more jobs after showing this status or after applying for a job with this status can the recruiter see my proposal or not?
