The platform is outdated.

Hi! As I was being invited to interview I realized that my screen said nothing about it, I got informed by mail. When I receive a message I get that in my screen automatically without reloading the page, like in an app. My knowledge tells me that you need to update the platform with AJAX for receiving instant notifications about being invited to interview in the screen, automatically without reloading the page. I think many people don't like to have to reload the page for checking. 

ACCEPTED SOLUTION

Like the "There are new jobs. Click to see them" option appears automatically, notifications about interview should too. It's coming the 2020 year, website are updating continuously to work like an app, no longer will we need to reload the page over and over again.

I think Upwork could hire me to say them these important updates the site needs.


Yes, I agree. More websites should incorporate the latest technology like ajax lest they be left behind and outdated.

being invited the moment you browse the website doesn't happen that often, so overloading the server for each active user all the time is expensive and not that needed. Email notifications do that more efficiently.

Did you just unironically call the site outdated and then lecture them on using ajax? lololol God I love this forum.
