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 Bogdan,
 
While I won't be able to provide a specific reason why a freelancer isn't eligible the Rising Talent badge, note that Rising Talent status is assigned automatically when a freelancer meets the requirements listed here. It also looks like you're on your way to earning your Job Success score.

Thank you for the response.

  • Complete projects on time and as promised to clients      Completed 
  • Maintain a 100% complete profile with accurate skills and genuine work Completed, It says it's Completed 
  • Keep your availability status up-to-date Completed, Paying Connects for the "Available Now" 
  • Regularly submit proposals to projects that match your skill set 150+ and Counting.
  • Adhere to the Upwork Terms of Service     Considering the limitations of the platform, difficult not to.
  • Have been active in the past 90 days or joined in the past 30 days   Actively submitting proposals since March,  200 days and counting. 

From previous comments, there are multiple people that are given the same generic response as I was given. Understandably specific reasons shouldn't be revealed publicly but is the difficulty to send a private message to freelancers giving further explaination too much for representatives?

Your jobs from years ago are not considered, and you only have 1 recent job. If you keep going on a more consistent basis, you will move to either Rising talent or JSS later on.

Hi, Duncan here.

Hi Ayhan,

 

Thank you for your message. I see that you already have a JSS on your profile now. Once you have enough work history on Upwork, we will automatically replace your Rising Talent status with a Job Success Score (JSS). You can start working toward Top Rated status.

 

Thank you,

Pradeep

I have a profile that is 100% complete, I have uploaded a video, all of my skills, I am available for work and also I have a portfolio attached. My boyfriend has also an Upwork profile and he has done the exact same things as me, however he got a Rising Talent Badge and I did not.

 

The interesting thing is that I got a job and he did not get one yet. So I am thinking - maybe is it because I already got a job?

Anyway, this is my profile - https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~010ff11f6e877b1430

I am eager to hear some feedbacks!

Hi Elena,

 

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 all the requirements are met, you'll be invited into the program automatically and receive the badge within 48 hours.

 

Remember, many factors contribute to a Rising Talent badge. This includes client feedback, the overall strength of your profile, prior experience and skills, your educational background, and the opportunities that are available in the market. Even professionals who have yet to complete any Upwork projects can become Rising Talent if they have skills that are in demand.

Hello there,

 

I hope you are all fine. I have been active in upwork for almost 8 months. I have completed one job succesfully. I am sending proposals daily, my availaibility status is up-to-date,i have a %100 completed profile and i passed the readiness test aswell. But i do not get the rising talent badge.  I do not understand the reason why. I could not pass the test at first but in second try i passed it. Do you think me not getting rising talent badge has something to do with this? 

 

Any help would be delightful for me. Thank you for your attention.

Hi Pradeep,

 

Thank you for your attention. So can i say that passing the readiness test in my second try will not effect getting rising talent badge ?
