Connects

[Arsalan H]

Hello everyone! 

I'm a bit confused about the connects system, If I submit a proposal to a project and don't get hired do I get my connects back? 

To elaborate, if the job owner hires 1 person from 10 proposals, do the other 9 get their connects back?

You don't get back any connect back if you don't get hired. 

If the client hires only one freelancer then all others would lose their connect.

Well, you only get connects back if the client discards/cancels the job.

This is also my concern. I hope that Upwork will return our Connects if they didn't hire us in a month.
