"Your client" can hire you by usingg the "bring your own freelancer" function, which will solve the issue and you will be able to work with that particular client. You won't be able to work with any other clients of course.

That's not how it works. The idea isn't to throw all sorts of skills at your profile to see if anything sticks. 

The skills you are listing on your profile are not needed on Upwork because there are already way too many freelancers offering the same things.

The vast majority of people who try to join Upwork are not accepted, and of the few that are accepted, the vast majority never win a single contract. This is particularly true in the categories you want to offer.

Hello, 

I haven't received any account approval email from Upwork. Could you please check to see if my upwork profile has been approved or not? Thank you.

Hi Humera,

I checked and it looks like your account has already been accepted. You should be able to send proposals to jobs on the general marketplace. Please make sure you check resources in this post to help you get started.

Thank you.

Hello Community 

How do I know if my profile is approved? While I have received emails from Upwork I have not received an email that says my profile has been approved. Does this mean that I am able to start? I could not find a status bar on my Profile that states where my profile is in the process. 

Thank you!
