Hi Sandra,

 

Yes--Upwork is a pay-to-play platform now, so spending Connects is required to send proposals and respond to invitations.

 

Overall, your profile looks good. I have only three small suggestions:

 

1) Remove "(TEMPORARY OR FULL TERM)" from your title and capitalize the first letter of each word in your title; this will help it stand out: Executive/Administrative Virtual Assistant

 

2) Remove the following from your overview/summary:

 

"Hello"

"Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. My name is Sandra"

 

Why? Because when clients search for freelancers, only the first 200-225 characters of your summary are shown. This means you have very little space (approximately two short sentences) to get their attention. You want clients to see their goals (your services and results) in this small space--not greetings, names or any unnecessary words.

3) Correct the spelling for your BAcc degree: Uiversity University of Lagos, Nigeria

 

Everything else looks good.

 

Good luck!
