How can I know that my profile is approved?

Hello,

 

  1. I would like to know if my profile has been aprroved....?
  2. Can you not have a status marker in the profile information so new users know whether or not they have been approved?

Thx,

Melissa

Dear Sir / Madam 

 

    my username is **Edited for Community Guidelines**

    I created account and accordingly a profile. 

 

     It now says my account is being reviewed and that only after approval, I can submit proposals / apply for jobs. 

      Hence, please consider for approval at earliest so that I can start working. 

      Meanwhile, I would be happy to provide any additional information .

 

Regards

 

Kalpesh

Hello,

i signed up to upwork and created a profile 3 days ago. When i wanted to see if the profile is approved, it still says: If your profile is approved, it will become to the public profile you’ll use to market your freelance business to clients (you can edit it after approval).

How long does it take to approve the profile? I read that it usually just take 12h to activate the profile..

Thanks for your help,

Michele

 The majority of profiles are rejected, so at least at this point yours is not rejected yet.

 

By the way: It is most unlikely that you are a transcriptor

You likely mean transcriptionist / transcriber.

 

Your profile would stand a better chance if it was complete - there is no portfolio, there is no relevant (or any) employment history and it is quite unclear what your translation / transcription experience actually is.

 

Speaking 2 or more languages doesn't make someone a translator any more than owning a scalpel makes someone a surgeon...

Hi Michele,

 

We apologize for the delay. Your profile review is still being processed. You will receive an update once the process is completed. Thank you for your patience.

Hi there,

I know it's another thread about profile approval, but I just need to ask. Smiley Happy

I haven't got any notification about profile acceptance or rejection, but I was able to make proposals.
Intuitively, I guess it's approved, but since I'm not quite sure about that, it would be nice if someone help me with some informations.

Thanks! Smiley Happy

Hi,

I sent my application for review over 3 days ago. I still haven't gotten any update on the review. I've read it shouldn't take a lot over 24 hours. Is there a problem with my application?

Thanks in advance,
Lya

Hey, thanks for the reply!

I have clicked repeatedly on "Review application" after filling it out. I fill out every field. When I click, however, it merely refreshes the page and deletes my city, for some reason, but it does not show any error. What do I do if it doesn't even allow for me to send the application for review?

Regards,
Lya

When filling out my profile for Upwork, it asks for the live in which I live. I type it and pick it from the list on the drop down menu. I find it and click on it but it is still being rejected. Ideas?

 Every day 10.000 people try to joing Upwork.

98% are rejected, and most of the ones who are accepted, never win a single job.

 

Unfortunately you don't have any skill that would enable you to find work on Upwork, there are literally hundreds of thousands of Data Entry people already.

 It is unlikely that your profile will be approved. You have hardly any overview (and what there is is meaningless,) no portfolio and are mistrepresenting your English level.

 

 

Hi Omar,

 

It doesn't look like you've submitted your profile for a review yet. Please, make sure you complete all the required fields including the city you are located in. You may also add more information about your skills and experience to your profile overview. Once you are done, please click the Review Application button at the bottom of the page to proceed.

Hi, when i click on "review application"
it just send me back to the same page?

Omar,

 

Before you click the button, could you please make sure all the fields on the Complete profile form are filled? Please, add your full address to the address filed and make sure that the "City" field is completed as well.

 

Thanks!
