Problematic that I already took Upwork Readiness Test?

Hey all, 

Thank you for the helpful replies on my last post; the information was invaluable. I did have another quick question.

Since I am new to Upwork, I was trying to work to become eligible for the Rising Talent. Currently, I have completed my profile to 100%, submitted around 10 proposals, been hired for two jobs, changed my Availability status, and I've gotten five star feedback. I understand that there are several other factors that go into the process of selection, but I did have a question.

In the eligibility requirements, it mentioned needing to take the Upwork Readiness Test via the link in the Email. My question is: Is it bad that I have taken the test already? Will that harm my potential ability to gain Rising Talent?

Again, thank you all for reading!

Best,

Mason Dressler

Hello Mason,

It won't affect your eligibility if you didn't take the Upwork Readiness Test through a link in an email. Thank you!

Awesome. Thank you so much for your prompt reply!

Do you have any other tips for working towards that status? Or, is patience the key?

Best,
