I am a new freelancer. I have a 100% complete profile. In the last 24 hours, I have completed my first job successfully and I have also taken and passed my Upwork readiness test. I submit proposals frequently and have a verified ID. Please how soon can I get a rising talent badge? I believe I have met the requirements.

hello. i want to ask, how to get the rising talent badge. i read about it and i think my profile is qualified. can you please review it. 

oh ya, i join upwork since 2014, since the name is Odesk, but i active just a few month ago. is that prevent me to get a rising talent badge?

 

thanks for yout time

Hi Yanchen,

 

As you already have enough work history on Upwork and earned your Job Success Score, you are no longer eligible for the Rising Talent badge. However, you can start working toward Top Rated status.

 

Thank you.

i am no longer eligible to receive rising talent badge? so i miss it 😄 😄

Hi Yanchen,

 

Yes, that is correct. You're no longer eligible for the Rising Talent badge as you already have earned your JSS.


Thank you.

I have completed the readiness test. I have submitted close to 120 proposals in my first month. I have struck 4 jobs as well out of which 2 are ongoing and they are paying me hourly. Why am I still not getting the rising talent badge?

Hi there,

I don't seem to be able to reach out to Upwork staff about my account in any other method, and the boy couldn't help me open a new ticket.

I am relatively new to Upwork but have had several jobs (all 5 star feedback, completed on time), and feel I meet all of the criteria for a Rising Talent badge but I have not been invited yet.

I have checked off everything on the list, so I really just need to know what I need to do now

Thank you!

Thank you for getting back to me.

Yes, I have read those guidelines over and over and I meet all of those
criteria, yet have not been invited.

I am in the midst of a high value task, and it's frustrating that I will be
charged double the fees just because something hasn't worked properly.

Hi Jenna,

 

You will be notified and the badge will be automatically added to your profile once you qualify. Please know that this shouldn't affect your earnings from your contracts.

Thank you for your reply, I can understand that, but I completed everything that is required to get that title & still I don't get that that's why I needed help. Are there any suggestions for me to get that title?

Upwork solved a misunderstanding of getting my account blocked within a day. Since then I have lost my Rising Talent Badge, is there any algoritm that might be affecting me on getting new jobs? 

 

When I was a Rising Talent, I got responded 3/10 job submits even without the professional cathalogue of my services that I made,  I´ve been reading all the job descriptions to reply the client my solution to solve their requests.

 

By now I have 17 submitted proposals and 0 response, I want to know how to get back my rising talent badge, I have 100% job success and over 3k. My readiness test is 5/5 and 100% of my feedbacks by clients are good reviews, I had a longterm relationship with a client that didnt leave feedback at all, is that an issue?

You can't (ever) have a Rising Talent badge again, because you have a JSS. The two are mutually exclusive.


You now want to aim for Top Rated Status.

No, that is not an issue at all.

17 proposals is not an unusually high number of proposals. Sometimes you get a response for 4 out of 5, other times it's nothing from 20. It's just the way it goes. 

Hi there, 

 

I have all the requirements for rising talent badge. But I didn't receive any invitation for the badge. I don't have any JSS so somebody guide me to attain the Rising Talent Badge.

 

Thanks & Regards

Hi, I already completed my profile at 100%. Why I'm not still getting the rising talent badge? I also passed the readiness exam. 

Hi Angela,

 

Check out: https://support.upwork.com/hc/en-us/articles/211063228-Rising-Talent


You don't have any job completed, so no Rising Talent badge for you yet!

Hi I just completed my profile 100%
##- Please type your reply above this line -

What about me Smiley Happy

Hi Angela and David,

 

Please know that the Rising Talent status is automatically applied to users whose profiles meet all of the requirements. You can have a look at this article about Becoming Rising Talent to see what the exact requirements are that you must meet to obtain a Rising Talent badge on your profile. Once the requirements are met, you'll be invited into the program automatically and receive the badge within 48 hours.

 

Remember, many factors contribute to a Rising Talent badge. This includes client feedback, the overall strength of your profile, prior experience and skills, your educational background, and the opportunities available in the market.

I would also like to clarify that even new freelancers who have yet to complete any Upwork projects can become Rising Talent.

Hi there!

Can you please tell me why I didn't a rising talent yet? I have completed 17 Total Jobs, $1k+ Total Earnings, and passed the readiness Test with a 5.0 score. What else should I do?!

Would you please help me to understand how can I get the rising talent badge?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards, 

M. Darwish 

 

Hi Mohamed,

 

Once qualified you will receive an email confirmation, the badge will be awarded on your profile in up to 48 hours. To learn more about the requirements check out this Help Article. Thank you.

You can't get a Rising Talent badge because you already have a (very good) Job Success Score. The Rising Talent badge is only for freelancers who don't have a JSS yet.

 

You now want to aim for the top rated badge instead.

Thank you for your answer it was so helpful, I think I met all the requirements of a top-rated badge. would you please tell me what else I should do or done to have it?
Thank you again for helping me and for your time.

There must be at least one you haven't met. Go to your My Stats page

 

  • Are your 12 months earnings in excess of $1000?
  • Do you have 13 or more leigible weeks out of 16?
  • Is your profile 100% complete?
  • Do you have 0 recent account holds?

I think I matched all these criteria but didn't get the Rising Talent Badge.  What could be the reason?
