Your Upwork job will automatically be added.  "Work History" is what you did  before you came to Upwork.

Hi Miguel

 

If you want to add your employment history to complete your profile, you can include student jobs, internships, and volunteer experience. You can also include clients and projects from your freelance career outside Upwork.  To add your work history to your profile please go to the Find Work tab, and click the Profile link, scroll down to the Employment History section and click the Add button, enter a company name, title, role, time period, and description. Click the Save button or, if you want to enter more, click the Save and Add More button.

Giving my company details will make issues??

Hi Balakrishnan,

 

Thanks for reaching out to us. Are you referring to sharing your company details on your profile overview? Please note that it is against Upwork's ToS to share details that include contact information on the profile overview. However, you can share that info in your proposals or cover letters. Let us know if you need further assistance.

 

Thank you.

Hi, 

Why can't I find the Emoyment Tab?

Hi Natalie,

 

I checked and it looks like you have already added information under your Employment History section. Please know that the Work History section is where the projects you have completed through Upwork will show.

Hello
I wanna ask that is there any kind of time limit to request for testimonials or I can avail my 20 request at any time that I like?
I heard from someone saying that after you submit your first request, you will be given three days to avail your remaining 19 requests...
Kindly help me

Hi Javaid,

 

Yes, the limit for how many Testimonial requests you can send is 20. That said, you can send more than one request at a time.

Hi Andrea!

My first contract were displayed on work history but how can I add photos of my work (3d rendering) , they didn't appear. how to fix that ?

Thanks !

Hi Creativ,

 

Could you please confirm if you're referring to linking a portfolio item to your contract? If you do this a preview of the portfolio should show next to your feedback. Learn more about adding portfolio items here.
