obalala:You can learn on the job, it won't be a very easy task but it's possible, i learnt some frameworks on the job, infact I learnt on the job for most of the early jobs i got on upwork, but then you still need to develop yourself to atleast a junior level before taking jobs. I don't know about data visualizations but you can search upwork and try to see yourself the ratio of people that apply to the jobs. 1 Like |

My JSS dropped from 100 to 78% without me having any negative review. What happened? cc codedboy95 1 Like |
Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by Codedboy95(m): 5:27pm On Feb 21, 2021 |
Crazeworld: Negative reviews doesn't necessarily mean bad feedback or low rating, when a client ends a job there is a section upwork asks the client if they will recommend you to others, it's on a scale of 1-10, if the client chooses anything less than 8, it might affect your jss score, especially if you don't have a lot reviews (i.e if you haven't worked with a lot of clients that has given you 9/10 or 10/10 in the past), so if you don't have lot of jobs completed with feedback anything less than 8 there will have great impact on your jss score. What you can always do is be 99% sure that clients are 99% happy with your work. To know if a client is satisfied with your work, when you are done with the client work asks him/her if there are anything else they want you to do or if there are any changes they want you to make, some clients may not be satisfied with what you are done but just proceed to end the contract because they don't want to stress you or complain, where they catch you is the "recommendation page" where they will select 7/10. Other clients ( mostly new clients) don't know that anything lower than 8 on that page might affect your jss. What you can always do is hint this clients before they end the project ( if you are sure you satisfied them), tell them anything less than 9 on that page will affect your score. ( it's against upwork rule to force them), so just know how you will put it to them just to make them aware. Worked for me a lot of times 11 Likes 3 Shares |

@crazeworld getting jobs with 76% jss score might not be a very easy task, what you can do is reach out to clients you have worked with in the past, ask them if they have any job ( even if it's $20 gig), let them rehire you. This will help your jss score, upwork values when a client rehires you. 4 Likes |

@codedboy95, I'm trying to get a previous client to hire me like you advised. I made him hire me last year for $5 to get my first job. Should I ask him to post the job so I can apply or he should just hire me directly? |

Codedboy95, how does Upwork charge clients for manually imputed time? I did 120$ last week but my acc is still showing 0$ as at today. I thought it will be deducted automatically from clients card. |
Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by Codedboy95(m): 3:33am On Feb 24, 2021 |
Hardheolar:if you are not a top rated freelancer, it will take approximately a week and 3 days to get your first hourly payment from a client. Which means you will be able to withdraw your money next week Wednesday. If you go to report page , you will see that the money is 'in review'. After the first payment you will continue to receive hourly work payment every Wednesday ( work for the previous week) |
Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by Hardheolar(m): 6:30am On Feb 24, 2021 |
Codedboy95: Thanks for your response. I have further questions 1. Is the W8BEN foreign status certificate compulsory for Nigerians 2. Which of the payment method is the best |
Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by Codedboy95(m): 7:41am On Feb 24, 2021 |
Hardheolar: 1) Yes, it's compulsory, it's nothing special, just you putting in your name. 2)Sending your $ to domicilary account ( but this takes few days), I actually use Payoneer, funds get in almost immediately and i can sell the funds at almost black market rate here on nairaland 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Please if my profile is reading Android developer, can I apply for gig under Machine Learning or Testing or just another niche? Does this show unprofessionalism? I am asking because there are times that I do see some feasible gig in another niche. cc qtguru, codedboy95. 1 Like |
Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by qtguru(m): 10:50am On Feb 25, 2021 |
islamics: You can apply for another niche, though it is preferable to have at least one portfolio for that niche even if it is a personal project it helps convince the user. though ML and Android are far apart, if you know it, you will have to convince them that you do. 1 Like |
