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?

Can someone help me the rising talent badge and top rated eligible weeks? Did you have the same problem as me before? 

 

I would like to ask about the Rising Talent badge. I saw someone in the group of freelancers posted about how he got a badge after doing a readiness test. His account is only a week old and he doesn't even have a job yet.

 

Hope someone can explain it to me. I have a job, joined 100 days ago, passed the Upwork Readiness Test, and I still don't have a Rising Talent Badge.

 

I would also like to ask why my Top Rated Eligible weeks hasn't been updating. It should have been updated every week since I joined, right? But still 0 of 16. I joined in May. I hope someone can really help me resolve or understand why.

 

Thank you so much!

Hi Ahmar,

 

If the badge was recently awarded, it can take some time before the change is visible on the platform overall. Kindly allow up to 24 hours for the changes to take effect.

Hi Talha,

 

My apologies for the late reply, though I can see that you already have a JSS, which is why you no longer have the Rising Talent badge. Now you can work your way towards obtaining the Top Rated badge. You can check out this help article to learn more.

Hello Everyone,

 

In last weeks, Rising Talent Badge was added to my profile. I even got free connect present for that. However, in couple days the badge was removed without giving any reason. Within that time I was online and applying for jobs. Do you know what could cause that ?

You have a JSS now, so you aren't eligible for the rising talent badge any more. 

When I had rising talent badge, I had a JSS 100% in that time. My JSS is decreased today (after approx. one month later the badge was removed.) to 79%.

Hi Altay,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us. Christine is correct, you no longer qualify to earn the Rising Talent badge as you already earned a Job Success Score.

 

While anyone without a Job Success score is eligible to participate in the Rising Talent program, since you already have a success score, we encourage you to work on becoming a Top Rated freelancer. You can learn more about the qualifications to earn a Top Rated badge and its benefits here.

Hey guys!

I have completed 5 jobs & have 2 ongoing jobs from 2 clients. I started to work as a freelancer on Upwork only in mid June. Is this why I am not getting a badge? Also I have overall rating of 4.9 stars. Although I'm working on fixed price basis, one of my client has been giving me multiple projects since he's happy with my work. 

I was wondering what is the exact combo required for JSS or Rising star badge. I have read all the eligibilty creterias. I seem to qualify for all. Kindly suggest. Thank you! 

Hi Priyanka,

 

The Rising Talent badge is automatically assigned when a freelancer meets the requirements listed here. Once you qualify for the badge, you will receive a notification letting you know and it will also reflect on your profile.
 
As for the JSS, please note 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.

We exclude clients whose freelancers report a history of unreasonable feedback so that their scores won't count against you, but that may mean it takes longer to accumulate enough reviews to receive your initial score.

Hi Annie,
Thanks for your reply! I do qualify for the criteria as per mentioned in the article shared by you. Which is why I'm confused as to why I haven't received it. 😞

Help checking my profile and advise where I need to optimise for the "Rising Talent Badge" or tell me I have to wait for the system to recognise the criteria match.
