Rising Talent Badge

[#1]

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 Andrea,
Thank you for your response but 72 hours passed and still no response from support. My concern is that I was reading somewhere on Twitter that if you post about the rising talent badge on twitter and upwork notices that then your badge will be removed. Same happened to me I got a badge on 5th feb, I did a post on 6th feb Upwork congratulated me under that post and on 7th feb my badge was removed and my My Stats update date was 5th feb and still the badge was removed.
So wanna ask is this true or a myth.
Regards

Hi Asim,

The Rising Talent status is assigned automatically when a freelancer meets the requirements listed here. This process is working as designed, and we can't specify a reason why a freelancer isn't eligible to receive the Rising Talent badge. Once you qualify, you should receive a notification letting you know.

It's important to keep in mind that the Rising Talent badge is awarded at Upwork's discretion and not everyone who meets the requirements will receive one. Upwork uses a combination of factors to determine which freelancers receive the badge, including but not limited to client feedback, job success score, and overall activity on the platform.

If you've met all the requirements but haven't received the badge, it may be because Upwork has not yet evaluated your profile, or they may have evaluated it and determined that you do not meet all the criteria. It's also possible that there are simply a lot of other freelancers who are currently eligible and Upwork is awarding the badge to them first.

In any case, it's important to focus on delivering high-quality work to your clients and building a strong reputation on the platform. The Rising Talent badge is just one way to stand out, but there are many other ways to showcase your skills and experience on your profile. As you continue to work on the platform, you may be considered for other badges or recognition programs that Upwork offers.

Thank you and will keep that in mind.

Hi

I had my rising talent badge a few days ago and now it's gone, I'm unsure why?

thank you 

[#9]

It goes away when you get a JSS.

BTW, set your profile to public. You can't receive invitations when hide yourself from search.

[#10]

and thanks Jonathan for your feedback

Hello there! I'm not sure if I have perhaps missed this post and I want to clarify something please? When you say you need to have availibility on in order to get the Rising Talent badge, does that mean you HAVE to set it on, or can you simply be online all the time? 

Thank you
