Rising Talent Badge

[1cf5e6f7]

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 Obinna,

Thank you for reaching out to us. While the Rising Talent Badge may be given to those even without a work history on Upwork, the skills they have must be in demand to qualify. Please note as well that 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. We cannot really specify what other factors are at play but once you qualify, you should receive an invitation to the program. 

With that in mind, you may want to apply to jobs, finish projects successfully and garner good feedback from clients. Kindly check this article for more information.

I thought I met all the requirements. Can anyone possibly tell me if there is something wrong with my account or which part in my profile or work should I improve to get this? Thank you

[759e32fa]

Hi Kalid,

Thank you for your message. Your Rising Talent badge may be removed in case of any hold on the account for violation of our TOS or after you earn a JSS on your Upwork profile. I see that your account was recently placed on hold due to a violation of our TOS. The Rising Talent badge is automatically assigned when a freelancer meets the requirements listed here.

My profile is 100% complete, I have only 1 order received for a month, and passed the test!
But I do not see where you can automatically get this mark

Thank you in advance for answering! 

[parekh_tejas2109]

Hello there.

I've had the rising talent badge for a while, but only just realized it was removed from my profile recently. I would like to know the exact reason why and what can be done to get it back or what are the next steps for me in maintaining a good profile.

[NikolaS]

Hi Tejas,

Thank you for reaching out to us. Please know that neither our team here nor our Customer Support team will be able to provide the information you're requesting since we can't share the users' Rising Talent qualification specifics. Once all the requirements are met, you'll be invited into the program automatically and receive the badge within 48 hours.

[b119a92d]

Hi, I had the same experience, I was wondering if there's some reason to it to keep the badge. Thanks

[ArjayM]

Hi Aloha,

Thank you for reaching out. I have checked your account and it looks like you just had a 100% JSS. Please note that once you have enough work history on Upwork, we will automatically replace your Rising Talent status with a Job Success Score (JSS). You can now start working toward Top Rated status.

Hi,

You have to fill these criteria to get a Rising Talent batch. If you think you already filled all the criteria the batch will be displayed in your profile within 24-48 hrs. Thanks!

Hi, I have been working in Upwork for more than 6 months. Completed 3 jobs and my 4th job is ongoing. Also earned a sufficient amount of money. Yet I have not got any success score and rising talent badge. I have completed every requirement for a rising talent badge. What else do I have to do for being eligible for this badge?

[kintachan]

On your profile, click to the badge, then learn more. You will see this criteria https://support.upwork.com/hc/en-us/articles/360049702614 They will revise your profile yearly, I think

[NikolaS]

Hi Koushik,

Thank you for reaching out to us. Please know that not all projects and clients are equal, so the time it takes to get a JSS varies. In order to get a JSS, you need to complete:

• Projects with 2 (or more) different clients
• 4 (or more) different contracts within 24 months

More than 90% of freelancers have a score after 5 projects, and nearly all freelancers have scores after completing 8 projects. You can find more information in this help article. 

Additionally, 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.

[koushik_seemanto]

Thanks, for the information Nikola S. Is there any way to know what is left for the eligibility?

[kathpepot]

Hi Nikola,

Does this mean you have to complete 2 or more projects? How about if you are working for them for a long time is there a point for that. When you say long term, how long would that be for upwork?

Thank you

[PradeepH]

Hi Kathleen,

Thank you for your message. To calculate your JSS, you need to have the required contracts on your Upwork account. Ongoing contracts will be included in your JSS calculation. 

Thank you,

Pradeep

Hello,
I have met all the qualifications for Rising Talent, received email notification about qualifying, and completed the readiness test, 13 days ago. However, I am still not seeing the badge appear on my account. Is there additional action I should take? I've reviewed all the help forums and articles, and I just can't seem to figure out what's missing.

[AndreaG]

Hi Madalyn,

It looks like you already have a Job Success Score! Please know that a JSS replaces a Rising Talent badge. You can now start working towards Top Rated status.

[5c3fd087]

Hello, I have passed all the requirements for getting rising talent badge but couldnt get it for no reason till now. I am not sure who to ask and get a response. Please help me out if anyone of you have faced the same problem.

Hi,

I am a little bit tense about my Rising Talent Badge.

I got it last night and suddenly saw JSS for the first time.

Everything was going fine but suddenly the badge is not there. 

I am not seeing the Rising Talent Badge anymore on my profile.

I am not understanding what happened.

If anyone please make me clear about it.

Thanks

[martina_plaschka]

I don't see an JSS on your profile. 

But if you see it, all is fine. You can't have RT and a JSS at the same time. 

[4c4aa8bb]

Oh! I see. Actually, I thought I just got the RS Badge and within one hour I have seen the JSS.

Both of them were on the profile for 8-10 hours.  Then RS left.

Yes, I am seeing my JSS.

[c23edee8]

Hello Sir/Mam,

I have completed 3-4 jobs. Still, I didn't get any badges.
Can you please let me know What is missing to earn a Badge?

[0f6593a5]

anyone kindly let me know that how to get rising talent badge on my profile?

[feed_my_eyes]

The first thing that you need to do is write a profile description that's in your own words. (Here's one tip: don't say that you're a top rated designer, since everyone can see that isn't true.) If you're suspended, that will pretty much disqualify you for a rising talent badge.
