Rising Talent Badge

Hello,

 

I read the article about the Rising Talent Badge and met all the requirements but still didn't get one. I have had 8 clients and my profile is looking pretty good. Am I doing something wrong or is it a normal thing?

Hi Rommel,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us. Please know that the Rising Talent status is automatically applied to users whose profiles meet all of the requirements. You can have a look at this article about Becoming Rising Talent to see what the exact requirements are that you must meet to obtain a Rising Talent badge on your profile. Once the requirements are met, you'll be invited into the program automatically and receive the badge within 48 hours.

 

I would like to clarify that the Rising Talent program is designed for freelancers who don't have their Job Success Score yet. Once they receive their JSS, the freelancer can start working toward receiving the Top Rated badge. You can find the requirements for the Top Rated badge here

Hi, I'm using upwork since October 2021. Its being 8 month, I didn't get rising talent badge yet. I did 8 jobs with good reviews. I respond to interviews timely and pass the readiness test and profile is also completed. Can you guide where I'm lacking actually? I'm worried about it.

I recently got my Job Success Score placed on my profile and after that the Rising Talent status disappeared. I nearly completed all the requirements to get Top Rated status but I still have 5 more weeks to complete "Top Rated Eligble Weeks".

Any ideas why my Rising Talent Status disappeared?

Yes, The two are mutually exclusive.

Because you have a JSS.

 

I nearly completed all the requirements to get Top Rated status but I still have 5 more weeks to complete "Top Rated Eligble Weeks".

Yes, keep your JSS above 90% and as long as you meet all the other requiremements, you get top rated when you reach 13 our of 16 eligible weeks.
