Why you should read what pops up on 'Suggested Skills' rather than adding them all blindly.

HOW is 'middle-aged' now is a skill?

Does it make one sound more competent or responsible, or conversely, less likely to understand the vagaries of digital marketing? 😄

Over-the-hill at 32, what a pity.

Hi Asha,

The skill tag you are referring to belongs under Voice Talent specialty in Design & Creative category. Professionals who offer services in that field often need to specify the type of accent, tone, age and other attributes of their work.

Thanks Valeria, that makes a lot more sense! But it popped up under my marketing profile and alongside several digital marketing related skills - which is why it looked so odd and out of place. Maybe it was just a glitch, or the skill suggestions are for all your profiles - perhaps Upwork can look into that for the future. Either ways, it made for quite a laugh! 😄
