Hi,
I used to be one of the top rated freelancers on odesk and elance. When it switched to upwork, I still got a decent amount of work. I have earned more than 100k on this platform. However, then I was mostly working as a contractor directly with clients in Europe and stopped interacting with clients on upwork for the past two years.
Recently, I have some free time so I decided to get back to upwork and do some freelancing work. However, things have changed for me. I am not getting any replies. Not getting any invites but that is probably because I have not been active.
I know how to craft a proposal. I have updated my profile according to the latest skills. As I mentioned, I used to get more invites than I had the capacity for. My work history seems good and my profile shows my projects.
I don't think I am very bad at writing proposals either because in past, I got a reply to almost every proposal that I sent. My hire status was pretty high too.
Now, I have not received any interview/response in the last 30 proposals that I have sent. I am afraid that it's more than the content of my proposal. Could upwork not be showing my application or showing it at the bottom or maybe have put some bad ratings to my profile?
