Rising Talent Badge

Hi Community, 

How do I know if I am eligible for Rising Talent Badge? Someone suggested that I should get this quickly. But I am unware of how to get it and what are the eligibility criteria.

Hi Prajakta,
 
The Rising Talent badge is available by invitation only. This means that even if you meet the qualifications for earning one, it will not be automatically added to your profile. Some factors are considered based on the criteria, your profile, and other factors, including your work category. The badge will be added to your profile if you're selected and no action is required from you.

Thanks for your reply.

 

Then I have a question about my success score. I have two eligible jobs, but one of them has not given any feedback. According to the rules, I do not meet the success score requirement. But why, my success score appears, and it is only 50%. What is the reason for this? I am eager to know to avoid this bad thing from happening again.

Thank you so much for the response !
But I was actually, specifically asking for Rising talent badge. I have succesfully completed 3 jobs with 100% client satifaction and my profile is also 100% complete but still no badge. Am I missing something ?
I appreciate your help!

Your work history is amazing, but I think you need to have earnings of at least $1,000 to get the Rising Talent badge.

Hello Vicky C,

I hope you are well. I am writing to inquire about my eligibility for the Rising Talent or Top Rated badge. I have maintained a 100% Job Success Score for the last two months, all my clients have given me 5-star reviews, and my earnings have crossed $1,000. Additionally, my profile is 100% complete, and there have been no account holds in the past 90 days.

 

Despite meeting all the requirements, I have not received any badge yet. Could you please review my profile and let me know if there’s anything else I need to do to qualify?

I looked at your profile and admire that you have a lot of jobs, and your job success rate is very high. However, it's a bit strange that although your profile shows Total Earnings of $1K+, when I add up the payments listed in your Work History, it doesn't seem to reach $1,000. This might be the reason why you haven't received the Rising Talent Badge yet...
Perhaps after completing long-term projects and receiving positive feedback and payment confirmation from clients, you'll be able to get the Rising Talent Badge. Wishing you the best of luck!

Are you sure you have Rising Talent badge? Your profile picture must represent you, and your profile name must also be real name (you will need to verify ID later on when Upwork ask you).

I have two Upwork freelancer and client accounts, while verifying the payment method in the client account, the account got suspended, then today they fixed the account. However, my freelancer account previously had Rising Talent and Top Rated Badge, which are not visible in the account after the account is fixed. I want to know how I can return these badges. And I think there was no mistake by me behind the suspension of the account.
I emailed the Upwork support team.
Want to know about your experience.

When will the Rising Talent badge appear on my profile?

It's been more than three months and the profile is also 100% complete and JSS is 100%.

 

Please help me.

Thanks.

Hello👋,

 

I'm inquiring about my eligibility for the Rising Talent Badge. Having met the requirements and even recently completed projects, I'm unsure why I haven't received it. I hread freelancers get the badge by invite. Could you please:


1. Confirm if I've been invited.
2. Clarify any additional steps needed.


Thanks

The Rising Talent Badge on Upwork is awarded based on its own criteria, and not everyone receives it. So, no need to worry - just keep doing great work and move forward.
