Hello, 
I am new here. I have complete my profile 100% with readiness-test. But I don't get Rising Talent. 
Is there any problem with my profile? 

Thanks

Hi Masum,

 

The Rising Talent status is assigned automatically when a freelancer meets the requirements listed here. This process is working as designed and we can't specify a reason why a freelancer isn't eligible for receiving the Rising Talent badge. Once you qualify, you should receive a notification letting you know.

 

Thank you.

Is it possible to get a Raising talent badge without any contracts or reviews? Cause my friend hasn't worked on any contracts or has any review, yet he has the rising talent badge. Why? I have completed my profile up to 100% and have 1 5 star review yet no badge. So what is the case in this scenario?

I have been working very hard and doing everything possible to be a rising talent. I have passed the upwork readiness test, 100% complete profile, I bid on projects regularly. I have add projects in project catalogue also. But why am I not being eligible for rising talent?

It's good to know that you put in a lot of effort into your freelancing business, Titas!

I'd like to note that not all freelancers receive the Rising Talent badge. Some skip the badge altogether and proceed to get a Job Success Score. The badge is awarded automatically when you meet the requirements listed in the article I linked above. 

I would recommend that you improve on your profile by adding more portfolio items, certificates, and tweaking your profile title and overview to communicate to potential clients how you can help them with their project. When you have the time, you may want to visit the resources we compiled here to help you create a stellar profile, and write amazing job proposals. Good luck!

Hi Muhammad,

 

As you already have enough work history on Upwork, your Rising Talent status was automatically replaced by a Job Success Score (JSS). For now, you can start working toward Top Rated status.

 

Thank you.

Hi Muhammad,

 

Since you already have a JSS you can start working toward Top Rated status!

The Rising Talent badge is for new freelancers who don't have a JSS yet, once they have enough work history on Upwork, their Rising Talent status is automatically replaced by JSS.

 

Thanks!

Hello dear community

 

I use Upwork very long time but have never earned the Rising talent badge Smiley Sad. At the same time, I & my friends fill the profile 100% and automatically received a badge. I even have done a lot of projects, but without the Rising talent badge. ((

 

Also the same situation with "readiness-test". I passed the test, but nothing changed on my profile. 

I hope to find a solution here.
Thank you for your time.
Regards

Rising Talent program is designed for freelancers who don't have their Job Success Score yet. As you do, you are no longer eligible for the badge. However, you can start working toward receiving the Top Rated badge.

 

Thank you.

Hi Angelu,

 

I checked and it looks like you already have a Job Success Score. Please know, once you earn a Job Success Score, you are not eligible for Rising Talent. Once a Rising Talent freelancer has enough work history on Upwork, the Rising Talent status is automatically be replaced by a JSS. 

 

Thanks!
