Hi, I am a freelancer and I submitted my application last night around 10pm. Shortly after, I received an email welcoming me to upwork but nothing around my application status.  How do I know if I have been approved?

Thanks

Meryl

I received an email from Upwork saying "welcome to Upwork" and "you've joined a talented community...". This sounds like I was accepted to join the site, but my profile is still not published more than 24 hours later. Does this step take more time? There was not any indication in the email that I had additional steps to complete but I am currently not able to view job listings. 

Thanks!

Katy

Hi Katy,

Upon checking, you haven't finish in completing your profile yet. If your profile is approved, it will become the public profile you’ll use to market your freelance business to clients.

Hi I am having the same issue... it's been 24 hours for me. Can you please help?

Hi Meryl, 

I responded to your post, and merged it to this masterthread here.

Thanks Jo-An. I am not able to see where my profile may not be complete. Is there any way you can help me understand the steps I need to take to finish?
