Outside of the community do a search for agency freelancers by clicking on the left side of the screen and then Upwork message a few people. Thanks!

Mubasher,

 

The first step is to research agencies that specialize in the skills you offer and ensure they are a good fit for your needs. Once you have found an agency that matches your requirements, the next step is to contact them directly and provide them with any necessary documents like an up-to-date resume or portfolio. Additionally, it’s important to take the time to understand all of their requirements, policies, payment terms, and how long artist contracts last. You can then apply using their online application process, which could include submitting evidence of your qualifications as well as record keeping such as bank details or tax documents. Once you have completed this process, often times the agency will review your application and follow up with further questions or inform you of their decision. Go to the "Talent" search bar and type the word agency with your skills. Have a great day!

Isn't there any agency that can help me? Wether data entry or typing? 

Im really getting tired of applying for jobs and not getting through and worst when you complete a project and cant get paid.

And the worst thing is your not getting back your connects if you don't get the job.

Hi Jelou Ann Feb,

 

I'm sorry to hear that you're having difficulties landing a job. An agency is a group of freelancers who have come together on Upwork. Freelancers who join an agency may do all their work through an agency (exclusive) or may maintain independent contracts too (non-exclusive).

 

The only way to join an agency is to be invited by an agency administrator. Your relationship with them, including how you get paid, is managed privately outside of Upwork. You can learn more about agencies in this help article to help you decide if agencies might be a good fit for you.

I see, so it is really needed that they know me instead of I know them so that I can be invited. I just consumed all my connects but still I haven't landed any jobs. I am not sure how to continue freelancing alone.

Hi Sudarshan,

 

I can see that you are interested in joining an agency. Please know that the only way to join an agency is to be invited by an agency administrator. Your relationship with them, including how you get paid, is managed privately outside Upwork. 

 

Once you join an agency, you will be added to either of the two agency membership types. You can be either an exclusive agency member or a non-exclusive agency member. To learn more about the agency membership types, please read this help article

I did some works on Upwork, I am new here and in the forum; and would love to join agencies that need my skill set. I have a public profile. Thank you!

Hi, I am Serajus Salehin, a top rated Graphic Designer on this platform for 4+ years now. I am thinking of joining an Agency where I can work on a variety of different projects. I believe this is an effective way freelancers can grow and learn from each other. If there is any agency recruiter/ team leader here I will be more than happy to sit with you for a discussion and talk about my expertise, experience and what values I bring!

 

Thank you.
