Request for Profile Feedback

Hello Upwork Community,

I hope you're all doing well. I’ve recently completed my profile and would greatly appreciate any feedback or suggestions for improvement. As a professional interior designer with extensive experience, I want to ensure my profile effectively showcases my skills and attracts the right clients.

Please take a moment to review my profile and share your thoughts. Any insights on how I can enhance my visibility or appeal to potential clients would be invaluable.

Thank you in advance for your time and help!

 

Best regards,

Wasik

Hello Wasik,

 

I have a few suggestions for your profile:

 

1) Remove the following from the first sentence of your overview/summary: "I am Wasik Al Karim."

 

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 names or any unnecessary words.

 

2) I think you should change your profile photo. The picture in your photo should be a close-up image of your head and shoulders that clearly shows your face. Read through Upwork's best practices for How to Choose A Good Profile Picture.

 

3) Add a short job description to your job at Ambiance in your employment history. A job description is especially important when the job is highly relevant to the services you provide on Upwork. Upwork uses keywords in job titles and descriptions to match you with relevant jobs.

 

4) I recommend adding one or two Specialized Profiles that focus on specific interior design services or completely unrelated services. Having a specialized profile can help increase a freelancer's searchability.

 

You should also consider adding a project catalog. The project catalog allows you to setup a pre-packaged service that clients can buy without you sending a proposal. Due to higher than usual requests for project catalogs, reviews and approvals are taking 10 to 30 days to complete. Read Get Started With Project Catalog for more information.

 

Good luck!
