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,

Hi Team,

I have received a welcome email, but I still see the following message in my account.

"Your profile has not yet been approved"

Please look into it and resolve it.

Thanks

You claim to be a writer, but have no portfolio items.

I see no reason for your profile to be approved.

I'm a beginner with no experiance what shall I put instead of a writer ?
And I'm sorry for the trouble

Hi Rawan,

 

Please, consider adding more information to your profile about your skills, education and other experience. You can expand your profile overview as well as add a few portfolio items to showcase your skills. Having a complete profile doesn't guarantee admittance but definitely helps Upwork team with the review. Thanks!

Hi Valeria,

 

My profile required revisions before I could resubmit for approval.  I have made many revisions but it will not let me resubmit.  Any advice on what I can do?

 

Thanks
