Finding Jobs

[#1]

Hi dear members, recently I have been invited many times and applied also to many jobs but I do not get any new contracts. Are jobs rare in this periode of time ? What can I do to get one? Thanks!

I think the closer a freelancer is to performing an entry-level or easy to offer skill, the more likely it is that they are facing increased competition. Lots of first-time freelancers have entered the market and are likely offering low prices. For freelancers with a long work history, they can distinguish themselves by showing that they have more advanced, proven skills.

Yes, I have found this time of year to be slower than others. Clients take vacations in late July and throughout August. Covid might be cancelling alot of vacation plans though, but I have also hit a slow down and chalk it up to the late summer doldroms.

Tahreen, you need to start at the beginning. Before you apply for a job, you have work to do. If you have not, read the Terms of Service and make sure you understand or ask questions. Learn about fixed price and tracked jobs before you lose money. Please read through this post. Follow every link and read all the material, watch the videos, and pay special attention to the post from Wes on the Red Flags for scams.

You are responsible for what happens on the platform. If you are scammed, no one can or will help you, including Upwork.
