If it is, it won't stay approved for long with that profile picture...

Hello?

 

I would like to know if my account has been accepted. Can anyone help?

At the top of the home page it shows:

Congratulations! You're now part of Upwork!

Tips to get started:

Complete your profile . Add portfolio items, testimonials, and certifications to stand out.

You'll win more jobs by using the Upwork app. Get the app .

Submit eye-catching proposals. And remember, it can often take more than 5 proposals to win your first client.

Read up on Upwork Payment Protection  for working through Upwork.

 

Thank you

Hi Brittany,

 

I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I checked and it looks like you need to update your title and overview section. You need to specifically state your skills and expertise. Once you're done, please let us know. Thank you!
