Would love for somebody to take a peek at my profile and see what they think! Was wondering if I put too much of my work experience on my profile and whether it's better to leave it off?

Hi Emma W, I have reviewed your profile. you have a nice and clear description.

I would suggest you complete 100% of your profile. I can't see any testimony, any certificates in your profile. Try to add those.

Other than these, You have built a good profile so far.

Btw, I've also started my journey in Upwork recently, It would be great if you review mine and share if anything you notice wrong or can be upgraded.

Thanks,

Mehedi

Megan, your profile is well-written and includes testimonials. You are off to a great start. Consider adding more keywords to the skills list. Also, a quick search indicates that it is possible to hire a top rated transcriber for as low as $7! I'd encourage you to do some market research about pricing for transcribing jobs. But it will help you identify your niche. Lastly, It would help to have an introductory video or a portfolio. (You could simply have samples from your own social media accounts, if you are just starting out in that field & do not have a formal portfolio.)

 

Good luck, I am rooting for your success!!

Hope you all are doing well,

I am a new Upwork user and I have passed the 'Upwork readiness test' and got a 'rising talent' badge on my profile.

then also I don't get replies to my proposals.

It would be great if you guys review my profile and give me some good feedback to help me for getting projects on Upwork.

Dear community, refreshing healthy discussions. Just began my freelancing career as content specialist. Though have extensive experience outside Upwork. When to expect work? Have applied for so many assignments. 46 of the 55 applied for positions still like beacon-light. The new entrants need to be somewhat prioritized, though they lack those lucky stars.

Sukhendu, with 623 hours already- that's a great start. I noticed that you have extensive experience in this field but the profile does not portray it very well. Consider developing a specialized profile and 'all work'. In particular, pay attention to the skills list. Consider changing your availability to hours. This will give potential clients a good sense of your time. You mention you have a blog. I am not sure if connecting blogs is allowed for Upwork profile. But you can take some content from the blog and add it on LinkedIn as articles. You can then connect Upwork profile to LinkedIn. At present, a potential client has no idea of the quality of your work. Lastly, I fear that you may have priced your services too low!! A quick search indicates that data scientists have hourly rates in three figures. Although one might want to keep rates low at the beginning, extremely low rates raise questions about the quality of work. I encourage you to do a market search. 

Hope this helps. Good luck, I'm sure you will get good projects on this platform.

Hello Aditi,  Thanks a lot for your detailed reply. Yes, I will add more experence with right skills onmy profile. Will link LinkedIn and Uowork profile. Yes, will increase my hourly rate gradually as I gain more experience as data scientist. But median hourly wages are about USD34 for data scientist in USA.  Could you please tell me what skills are in demand now.  I appreciate your time and help.  With best wishes and Regards - Sukhendu
