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,

Today is Thanksgiving.

You profile MIGHT get checked an hour from now. But probably not.

Maybe tomorrow. Maybe next week.

Be patient.

Thank you for the response, Preston. I appreciate it.

Hey Goran. I'm in the same boat. I want to know if my profile is approved. I was signed up as a customer because I wanted to find developers to help me with my clients, but now I want to develop for upwork. I transfered it to seller. It looks approved, but I haven't gotten any email. Furthermore, I spend a lot of my time at cafes, and someone told me that my account can get banned if I use a vpn. Is this true? 

Hello,
I want to know that my account is approved or not. It seems approved but didn't get the mail of approval.

Hello team!

My account was created a long time ago, now I would like to use it as a translator-freelancer. Could you help me?

Thanks a lot

I am trying to use your website as an alternative to my current workplace and i get rejected all the time. 

 

I get no specific reason, just that upwork doesn't fit to a person like me.

 

Huh? What to do in this case.!?

Just try to submit a proposal. If you can, then it is approved. Also, click the bell icon near your profile photo to see if there is a notification you've missed. 

If your account has been approved, you will have available connects and you will have the ability to submit proposals to jobs without any errors. If your profile is still under review, the image below will be on top of your upwork page or if you are not accepted in the platform, a different notification will appear. I hope this helps.

Thank you!

Hi Awal,

 

I would also like to add that profile reviews may take 24-48 hours to complete. Once the review process is complete, you will be notified via email and on your Upwork account. Let us know if you have other questions. Thank you!

I didn't got email of upwork approval but I. Can bid! What it mean? I'm confused!

I'm not sure I quite underastand the question. I hope you don't have multiple accounts.

For that one and only account that you are allowed to have, if you can bid, it probably means that your profile is approved and you can bid for jobs. 🙂

I wanted to know the reason behind the rejection of my profile. Based on my experience, it seems a little unfair, and to be honest, I expected a better reason than something as vague as "10000 applicants each day".

You don't really expect them to write a custom "Why we are not accepting you" letter to 9800 rejected profiles a day, do you?

 

And thus a template answer? Something that can be copy-pasted and sent to 9800 profiles at the same time? Doesn't that raise some serious questions about the reviewal process in the first place?

Also, not sure if my question warrants for the sarcasm that was pretty evident from the reply.
