Saved search list

Today, when I went to look for my work, I noticed that my saved searches had been removed from the desktop version.  However, they are still accesible through the mobile app.  Is there anyway to have the saved searches show up in the desktop version?  This would make searching for work a lot easier. 

 

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

 
I recently noticed that my job feed on the platform shows job posts that are totally unrelated to my skill set and what I do. For example, I see job posts about software development, graphics design etc and yet I'm a copywriter :). This problem didn't exist before. Please, is there a way to fix this issue?
Thank you.

All my feeds seem to update sporadically. For instance, my Most Recent feed starts with a post from 3 days ago. Sometimes My Feed only lists 6 or so jobs. I am confused about the way these feeds work. What is the significance of the pulsing blue dot next to Most Recent?

Thanks for any light that anyone can shine on this subject.

Hi Community,

I'm having a problem with jobs search on the website. After "Most Recent" link is up in the left menu, all my saved searches with filters has gone, completly disappearing. Mobile App is ok. it's just occuring on desktop website. I'm usign Chrome. I tried to save new search but nothing has changed. Anyone could help?

Ok I have found it by myself. For those who have the same problem: List of your Saved searches has been moved into feed. You can find it in the first line above job offers list. Sorry, I have probably missed the news.

Hello,

 

Best Matches don't reflect my profile, for example the price paid/hour or the level of expertise.

 

How can I make sure the best matches are filtered to what I'm looking for?

 

In My Feed, is there the possibility to save filters? So it doesn't have to be applied every time.

 

Thank you very much in advance for your help/

Hello Community,
I am not sure what Upwork has changed recently, but for some reason, I don't have any jobs in my U.S. Only section. The message says "Sorry, we couldn't find any jobs matching these criteria."

I've been browsing jobs through the U.S. Only for months (years?) now and I loved this feature because it showed me jobs within my profession and only in the United States. From videography, through design, all the way to video editing - and that is what I do. It was convenient to see all of it under one section.
I contacted Upwork and they advised me to search for jobs using the advance search option, but it really doesn't make my life easier. I have to now search each category separately, I see a lot of postings that I am not interested in and I feel like I am missing out on potential clients that would show up in my U.S. Only feed before.

Does anyone else experience this? I hate that UW can't help me with this as this was my main "marketplace" for jobs.
Any advice on how to get the U.S. Only jobs back and be able to browse jobs that match my expertise?

Thanks,
Szymon Dybowski

Hi Szymon,

 

Could you please try saving those Advanced Searches? Your feeds are powered by your saved searches and will consist of the jobs that fit the query and filters you use when saving those searches. Please make sure to select your categories as well.

Hello,

 

I am struggling on Upwork for the long time but still not getting my skills related jobs. After spending 24 hours I am getting only a few job as per my skills set where as mentioned "Rising Talent". So that I am facing big issue everyday to submit a proposal. Results only 2-3 jobs I applied for in a day.

 

Now my humble request, please look over it and fix the issue so that I can submit proposals to get more job.

 

 

Thanks & Regards

Hi Andrea,

 

Thanks for your support. Now I am doing the thing as per your way. But one more thing, maximum of jobs I am getting with "Rising Talent". Is it possible to fix this issue from your end? Or else please clearify the way so that I can do it myself.

 

Because due to this issue I can't send proposals to my niche. I am waiting for your valuable reply.

 

 

 

Thanks & Regards

Suman B.

Hi Suman,

 

You can still apply to jobs if the client sets the qualification to be a Rising Talent badge. However, the client will see that you're not meeting the set qualifications.

 

Thank you.

Hi All,

 

In the past, I had created a customized job search key word categories under the Find Work Section. Today, I realized that some of these search categories have been removed by Upwork and there is now a  My Categories search based on a selection of skills which I showcase on my Profile page. I will have to rebuild custom filter key word job search again because I do not see the specific jobs which I usually explore when I am searching for jobs.

Hi Laurence,

 

Your saved searches are still there. To access them, click on the "My Feed" tab on the left hand panel and you'll see them at the top of the feed.

Hi there,

A few days ago my feed wasn't showing up, I don't know why this happened and I don't think I did anything wrong.

The problem now is that the "My Feed" option for the most recent job posting is not showing up.

I'm using my laptop and it's not showing up. but my phone has. Can it come back?

Thank you.

I am unable to see the latest jobs on my feed. They are hours ago. Also, all jobs that I see are with 'Payment unverified'. I have tried with another browser, still the same. Can someone please help me solve this?
Thank you.

Read about the same problem many times this month on the forum.

 

When I faced the same problem and contacted support, they had me delete saved searches and the problem was solved. See if that works for you!
