why am I not getting interviews

[yabeets]

I haven't got any interviews lately is something wrong with my profile?

I think my proposals are being hidden somehow from clients can anyone help, please.

all of the proposals I submitted in the past month are archived this never happened to me before.

For 2 out of 5 proposals I will get interviews before. what happened now I didn't get a single interview ina month I need help, please??

I have stopped sending proposals till this thing is solved.

is this why 

I have checked the proposals that are archived and most of the freelancers that got the job have low profile than me I perfectly fit for the jobs that lost more than others.

and I'm paying for membership and extra for connects

why would talent specialists block my proposals?

What's going on??

It isn't. If you read the whole topic, you'll find that Upwork conceded and stopped doing this almost 2 years ago.

Hi Yabets,

I understand that it can be disappointing when clients end up hiring another freelancer. We can't influence a client's decision during the hiring process, but I'd like to recommend a few helpful resources that can help you build your profile and submit winning proposals for a higher chance of getting noticed by clients:

That isn't true, though. Upwork marks some proposals "best match" while throwing others into a folder that a client has to click to open - you think that doesn't influence clients?

thanks, for sharing Christine 

I have already tried all of the recommendations but still, I am not getting anything 

I have an outstanding profile, JSS, portfolio, and fulfill clients requirement when I apply for the job I apply before the proposal no reached 5-10 and I do not apply unless I am sure that I can fit the job perfectly.

it worked out good before

[yabeets]

I know there is a competition but I don't think competition is the problem I have an appealing profile great JSS, portfolio, 5 * client reviews my proposals are well crafted with great samples attached I have successfully completed several jobs on up work 

its been a month since I got interviewed but those recommendations are not working any more

[kinector]

Your work history looks decent enough so that shouldn't be the problem.

Maybe clients have a problem with the way you write English and yet claim to be a native speaker.

Maybe it undermines your perceived competence.

Could that be the problem?

[yabeets]

thanks, Mikko 

I will fix that

Don't get me wrong - I don't think that Upwork is hiding your proposals (not all of them, anyway) or that there's some kind of a bug. It's normal to have ups and downs when you're freelancing, and business is usually slow at this time of year.

[sarrafig]

I have the same problem and that really sucks.

[vishwa_malinda]

Hi Sarra
I was having the same issue, but please make sure to active on upwork and to submit proposals which exactly matched to your profile skills. Better to submit proposal per day rather than using all the connects. This will take little time to get developed your profile.

Good luck!
