What happens when you close listing on upwork?

Effects of Closing a Job Listing on Upwork

Closing your job listing on Upwork has several implications. But don’t worry, this guide will help explain what happens when a listing is closed on the platform.

1. Unhired Freelancers

  • Once a job listing is closed, any freelancer who has not been hired can no longer submit proposals for the job.
  • Those who have already expressed interest will receive a notification that the listing has been closed.

2. Current Proposals

  • After closure, you can still review proposals you received before the closure.
  • You have the full right to hire from the pool of existing proposals, even after the job is closed.

3. Communication

  • You can continue your conversations with freelancers who sent proposals before the job was closed.

Does Closing the Listing Affect your Rating?

Closing a listing does not directly affect your job success score or ratings. Whether it is closed without hiring or after hiring and completing a job, it does not negatively affect your metrics. However, do remember to give feedback if a freelancer was hired and the job done, as this plays a significant role in the freelancer’s ratings.
I hope this answers your question. If you have any more queries, feel free to ask!
