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

Hello,

I tryed to apply twice to upwork but every time my profile is not accepted. 

I really don't understand. I have a lot of experience, more than 6 years in France and one year as Freelance in Australia where I was working on the Freelancer.com platform (I have some good reviews on it). **edited for Community Guidelines**

I have 4 years exeperience with Angular and 1 year with React and 6 with the ASP.Net stack. 

I can bring my Australian client on this platform. We want to moove from Freelancer.com because isn't a really good platform and I heard about Upwork which is probably  the best actually. 

Let me know what I need to do to be accepted.

Here you can find my web portfolio : **edited for Community Guidelines**

Cheers

Yvan

but I used to log in normally even when my application submission was declined so now I can't really tell after I resubmitted If I'm accepted or not.

Hi Nadun,

 

Upwork Global Inc. will send you an email notification once you are approved. After the approval process, you will need to setup a professional profile; thereafter, you will be able to send proposals to potential clients on the platform.

Hello, I made my profile over a week and a half ago and it still haven't been approved yet. It’s hasn’t been rejected at all, just not approved. Is there an error with my account? Am I missing something?

Avery O Community Manager

Hi Katerina, 

 

I checked your account and I can see that you are yet to submit your profile for review. You need to click the review application button to make sure you did not miss any section of the profile creation process. Any portion that is highlighted in red needs to be filled in. Please review your application and update the missing fields to be able to submit your profile for review. In this case, please update the city field and resubmit your profile for review. 

 

Once you submit your profile, it takes at least 24 to 48-hours for the process to complete and you will be notified via email about your account.

I see, I though I had clicked review multiple times but I will try once more! Now when I go back to the application I see that I missed filling in one of the boxes. I will submit it for review now. Thank you!

Hi Malik,

 

Basic Membership doesn't include free connects. This can vary based on your location, but all Upwork users will be able to purchase Connects with a credit card or prepaid card. If you aren’t able to use a credit card or prepaid card or you don’t have an Upwork balance, in many cases you’ll be able to use PayPal. Check the options available to you and learn more about acceptable billing methods for paying memberships.

 

Thank you.
