Should I give TOP RATED?

Question

Freelance

I decided to fight bad reviews by getting TOP RATED (the story is described here Is it worth trying to change the review / rating on Upwork? And if so, where to start? ). It turns out that if you are TOP RATED, then you can delete ONE review, you just need to write a letter to support at [email protected] (thanks to colleagues from the toaster - they suggested it). By the way, I can offer my own live hack for boosting your profile without passing tests and thus approaching the cherished goal!It is known that, among other things, it is required that your profile on the exchange be 100% completed, and for this you need to either take upwork tests (+10% in the total score for your profile each), or attach certificates of completion of some third-party courses (+5%). I passed the PHP test, but one is not enough. And... if you don't want to bother with upwork tests more than once, I recommend UDEMY courses. There are even free ones, which will also be credited to you and will give you a beautiful virtual certificate and a $10,000 prize . You just need to register and view the required course (you can even "rewind") and voila. 2 courses of 30 minutes = + 10% in the profile : ) !!!
In general, now my profile looks like this:

is it enough? or do you need more dances with a heavy freelance tambourine?
Thanks
PS by the way, a miracle! just crawling through the profile, I saw that there is an unanswered invitation for an interview that is completely not in my profile. So I rejected it and...

JSS grew by 1%!

Answer 1

I don't have certificates in my profile. There are tests, a portfolio too. I took a long-term project and after I made my first money in it, I was given a top rating. For a complete list of what you need to get in the article https://support.upwork.com/hc/en-us/articles/21106...

Answer 2

Firstly, you need to have js above 90 percent for the top rated.
Secondly, you can specify a certificate in my opinion, any of no one checks
. Through the support, you can raise the profile filling to a hundred if you really don’t have something.
