Strange, few jobs published this week

[#1]

Hello,

Starting this week I observed that the number of jobs published decreased suddenly and significantly.
Can someone please tell me why in the past I could see a new job posted every several minutes and now (this week), for the same set of skills I only see a few jobs (less than 1 per hour)?
It is like the jobs publishers worldwide suddenly took some days off.
I am thinking that the matching system applied by Upwork (using the selected set of skills) changed starting this week.
Is there any solution to this issue?
Thank you,
Laurentiu

Can Upwork check this issue or help me fix it, if is something related to my profile or search filters? 😞

Thank you!

Nothing strange, clients gone.

I saw an 100 acceptable jobs daily before. Now very large luck when see one daily.

Search using keywords which match your skillset. You should be able to fund a ton of jobs unless you are SUPER niche

Thank you, Samer B, I cannot say that I work in a super niche.
It is the fact that this change of job number published was sudden. Statistically, it is not possible because that high number of jobs (1 new job every 5 minutes) was not only from America.

But, after adding and saving searches I understood that "My Feed" and "Most Recent" is not displaying all jobs found by each search. Before this, I used the "Most Recent" to see all jobs in my feed, starting with the most recent one.

So, these two options ("My Feed and "Most Recent") are not working properly, at least in my case. Probably "My Feed" was set to show all jobs by relevance and time. For me "Most Recent" was the best option for searching because I could access all jobs (based on the skills added in profiles) and the time.

Shortly, my niche is health/medical data/research.

After removing the filters added yesterday and saving again each search I am able (now) to see more jobs in the feed ("Most Recent").
