Hi Muhammad,

 

Rising Talent status is automatically applied to users whose profiles meet all of the requirements. You can have a look at this article about Becoming Rising Talent to see what the exact requirements are that you must meet to obtain a Rising Talent badge on your profile. Once the requirements are met, you'll be invited into the program automatically and receive the badge within 48 hours.

 

Thank you!

I can see your job is still in progress. If you have already completed the job, You can ask your client to leave feedback on your contract.

The client was suspended and has been gone for months.

My client sends me a direct contract. He sends me the job details and goes.
After complete the contract, I submit it at the given time. But my client
no leaves any feedback. The client was suspended and has been gone for
a month. Then what should I do?

It doesn't matter. You can close the contract or leave it open, neither makes any difference. Contracts with suspended clients are excluded from your metrics.

Thanks for your article helpful to me.

Hi

 

I have the same challenge. I have completed 2-3 jobs and yet not received any info on rising talent. Moreover, I have applied to so many jobs and got no response.

 

Really want to do well on this platform!

You've only completed one contract, the others are still open and won't get Rising Talent status because that completed contract went badly. That nukes any chance of a Rising Talent badge.

I'm having this issue too, even though I meet all the requirements, I have:

  • Passed the Upwork rediness test with a score of 5.0 on my second try
  • Completed projects on time for my clients, while also having PERFECT 5.0 STAR FEEDBACK
  • Have had a 100% complete profile for over a month, and have kept it up to date on a weekly basis
  • Availability status has been set to Public since I created the profile unless it was due to an update to the site that effected that... which has already been fixed and I'm public again
  • Have submit high-quality personalised proposals on a daily basis to relevent clients.
  • Have been very active for the past 90 days since creating the profile with the acception of 2 weeks where I had to repair my computer due to technical issues, in which after such was done I was immediatly back to getting contracts.
  • AND have adhered to ALL of Upwork's terms of service

    The only reason I can think of is maybe... just maybe the cause is that maybe I haven't reached the 90 day mark, which I highly doubt since I made this account back around the beginning of September, and if not for that I'm being unrightfully punished for those 2 inactive weeks in which it was impossible for me to ACTUALLY DO ANYTHING??!?

    Still though, no email... diddly squat butts.

    Anyone have any ideas how this could possibly be happening or is it just the system being a prejudice automated pain?

Hi Pradeep...

Is it possible that I haven't gotten the NOTIFICATION for the Rising Talent badge because I wasn't subscribed to upwork's "Marketting Email".... If not, is there any possibility you can tell me exactly what I'm missing considering I should be meeting all the requirements....?
(Now being on the brink of getting my first $1000 worth of earnings and JSS, at 100% may I add)

Thank you
- Ayda G.

Hey Ayda,

Did you end up getting your Rising Talent badge since then? I'm having the same issue.

If you can write a quick update, I'd highly appreciate it.

Hi Pradeep,

 

I can see that I have met all the required criterias mentioned on the page but I have not received any badge. May you please review the case and let me know where am I lacking ?

 

Thanks.

Hello Muhammad

if you're sending proposals and still not getting the job so there is a problem with your cover letter. your cover letter not convincing the concerned person. so write a better letter and don't lose hope try again and again.

Best of luck
