How can I know that my profile is approved?

Hello,

 

  1. I would like to know if my profile has been aprroved....?
  2. Can you not have a status marker in the profile information so new users know whether or not they have been approved?

Thx,

Melissa

Hi Dobri,

 

It doesn't look like you have submitted your profile for a review yet. Please, go to Create your profile page on Upwork.com, make sure that all the fields are completed and, when ready, click on Review Application button at the bottom of the page.

Um, did you check your email? Upwork is usually pretty quick about getting back to their potential freelancers. The only thing I was asked to provide was a copy of my driver's license, and that was only to have access to the jobs marked "U.S. only." I suppose you could even skip doing that if you are open to working at jobs that don't have that designation. 

 

Sorry if this post isn't much help.

Good day!

 

I hope an Upwork representative reads this, I am new to online jobs and I already found a client to work for as a Virtual Assistant. As someone adviced, it will be benefitial for both of us if we bring the project here in Upwork to help me grow further.

 

Given those, I would love to follow up with the review of my account so we can take the next action depending on the result of my account review.

 

Thank you very much!

 

 

Regards,
