Can You Schedule a Meeting in UpWork?

Last updated on January 28, 2023 @ 11:28 am

If you’re a freelancer, you’re probably familiar with UpWork (formerly oDesk). It’s a great platform for finding work, but can be a little daunting if you’re not used to using it.

One of the most common questions we get is “Can you schedule a meeting in UpWork?”. The answer is yes, but it’s a little bit hidden.

Here’s how to do it:

PRO TIP: Please be advised that scheduling a meeting in Upwork is not currently possible. We recommend that you use an alternative method to communicate with your potential clients. Thank you for your understanding.
  1. First, log into your UpWork account and go to your settings.
  2. Click on the “My Info” tab and scroll down to the “Availability” section.
  3. Click the checkbox next to “I am available for new work”.
  4. Now, go to your profile page and click the “Schedule a Meeting” button.
  5. Enter the date, time, and duration of your availability, and click “save”.

That’s it! Now potential clients can see that you’re available for meetings and can schedule one with you directly through UpWork.

Keep in mind that this feature is only available to users with certain membership levels. If you don’t see the “Schedule a Meeting” button on your profile page, upgrade your account or contact UpWork support for more information.
