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?

[c0552567]

I opened this account a long time ago but I didn't know much about you but already I got a lot of idea about you but after asking myself some questions and recharging I found out that those who are opening new accounts are rising talent and a new freelancer gets it more. Can work with initiative it is no doubt a good initiative in Upwork but I have not worked you for long time for my skill development for which now what are the chances of getting my rising talent if I want to continue work from now which is my web design and development related skill development After doing this I updated my profile to tell you what are my chances of getting Rising Talent?

Thank you all so much for your patience in reading this issue of mine and have a nice day

Hi MD. Ashraf,

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.

Thank you,

Hello,

Once I got a raising talent badge but it is not visible on my profile now. Please guide why I can't see it and how I can display it again.

Thanks.

Hi Arjay, 

I have been going through the same trouble. It was so exciting for me to get the Rising Talent badge but I didn't recieve any mail or notification from upwork(more than 48hours have passed) and i recieved no connects as well. I want to know if I am actually a Rising Talent or is it just showing on my profile due to some error.

Namashkaram! 🙏 Warm greetings to everyone! I'm finding it difficult to understand how to get rising talent badge? Read the FAQs and yet I couldn't land that badge even after following everything. Also will 1 year working on Upwork with atleast $1000 earning ensure top rated badge? Kindly answer these questions experienced seniors!

Regards,

Chander

Here is my upwork profile: https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~0154cf87f293c44fbd

• I have completed 2 jobs and earned $220
• I have 100% profile completeness
• I regularly submit proposals in last 3 weeks

But I still don't have a rising talent badge, why?

Thanks for the reply.

My profile got job success score of 75% but got no rising talent badge. Why? I thought when I got my rising talent badge it will reduce fees to 10% and now they asking me to work towards top rated bade and what of Rising talent badge. Is this a scam upwork is doing with their freelancers. I need answers.

[liquidom0092]

I think there are more factors to the Rising Talent, than just JSS. Also I believe it's 10% on Featured jobs not all jobs (Rising Talent Level). Stick with it, work hard, find good clients (they exist) and you'll be top-rated in no time!

Hi Vinod,

Thank you for reaching out to us. Please know 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.

I understand better now.

Hello Upworkers,

I have followed all the rules and regulations of upwork for getting rising talent and jss badge but still i didn't get that.

I was wondering that i haven't given upwork readiness test that's why i didn't got the badge but on some upwork  post it was said that readiness test has bee removed.

I daily apply to proposals

100% profile completed 

completed 3 jobs succesfully with 5 star ratings

follow all upwork guideliness

but still i didn't  get the badge , you all can check my profile for proof

please give me the badge so that i can get more jobs.

I don't have enough money to buy a computer for my younger brother that's why i was wondering to get more jobs on upwork and earn money to buy and gift him.

Please it's my humble request, give me the badge gentlemen!

[martina_plaschka]

So you don't want it from the ladies?

3 jobs is not enough, finish a few more. 

Edit: watchatalking about, you only have two finished jobs, and if you keep them that small, you will need a bunch more, maybe 8 or so.

Finally; don't worry about it. I don't think clients care that much about it. 

[34560596]

Thanks Martina.

It's showing two jobs but today i have completed a hourly job which will get live on my profile when client pays me.

Thanks for your motivation.

Could you please share some tips to get more jobs and best ways to write proposals. 

Will appreciate it.

[34560596]

I have seen a freelancer profile and he has only completed 3 jobs and also his profile is not fully completed but he got a rising talent badge

(If you allow then i can share a screenshot)

I have also completed 3 jobs (1 job is not showing until client pays me for hourly on monday) and have 100% completed profile but i didn't get that , i'm just not trying to compairing myself with others , just trying to know why i didn't get the badge till now

Please help me

Hi, I got a rising talent badge and get a JSS badge. But unfortunately, I can't maintain both badges. My question is Can I get these badges back or not? If I can get back what conditions apply for this process?

[ArjayM]

Hi Muhammad Asif,

Your Rising Talent badge may be removed for the following reasons -

• your account is put on hold for violating the Upwork Terms of Service;
• you earn a Job Success Score on your Upwork profile;
• you do not continue meeting the Rising Talent requirements listed here.

The Rising Talent badge is automatically assigned to a freelancer who meets the requirements in the article I shared above. You may also want to check this help article for more details about Upwork's Talent Badges.

[167ac944]

thanks

[a77045c6]

Same here, I did the test then I got a Rising Talent badge. And when I have 5 - 8 clients then I got 100% JSS. Now, my Rising Talent disappeared, and my JSS reduced to 83%. I've been wondering too. But two things I've learnt the Rising Talent doesn't remain when I have JSS. And when JSS doesn't reach 100%, I have less opportunity to join new clients' projects when they require JSS or at least 90%.
