After a lot of trial and error, here's the best method I've come across for how to be notified about new jobs:

1. Install Feed Notifier.
   1. This is going to give you a desktop notification whenever new jobs are posted that match the filters you've chosen.
   2. Inferior alternatives to Feed Notifier that I tried:
      1. Feed Notifier doesn't display job post summaries as nicely as the Upwatcher Google Chrome extension, but that extension doesn't seem to work with the "My Feed" Upwork RSS feed, so when using that extension you have to settle for a single imprecise filter and you end up wasting time looking at a lot of job posts you're not interested in.
      2. The Upwork Feed Notifier Chrome extension won't let me turn off the notification sound and won't let me quickly preview new job posts, so it's an inferior option to Feed Notifier.
2. Create one or more saved searches on Upwork.com.
   1. Click the green "Search" button to be brought to the advanced search screen.
   2. Set up the filters the way you want.
   3. Click the "Save search" button. 
3. Copy your "My Feed" RSS URL. 
4. Use Google Feedburner to get a new RSS URL that will work properly with Feed Notifier.  
   1. I got this idea from here after I got an error while trying to use the RSS URL Upwork gave me with Feed Notifier.
5. Add the URL that you got from Google Feedburner as a new feed in Feed Notifier.
