How to write proposal for part time jobs

formanojr · ‎02-26-2019

Hello,

I am new to upwork (have done about ~30 hours). I work ful time. So, I am looking for a part time(10 - 20 hours) part time remote opportunity. I got a good job on my first gig and the client have a 5 start review. I have a strong profile in my domain (Java cloud developer with lots of experience.) But, whatever proposal I write to (even ones which show < 30 hours) does not get a response. I get reached out on gigs I am not interested in. Either full time or a job in another location. I have added my link. It would be great to get some feedback as well from succesfull free lance sw developers.

I am sure I am doing something wrong likely. Here is my profile:

To whom it may concern :

I am interested in applying for this freelance project for Java expertise. I have hands on current experience with Spring framework(Security, Test, Data, JPA etc). With my strong Java cloud software development, architecting AWS stack based highly scalable services , I bring to the table a strong software engineering mindset combined with technical skills honed throughout my 10 years of product development experience.

Specifically, I have worked with Amazon services like Ec2, Kinesis, S3, Sagemaker etc in the current(and previous) project and I can come up-to speed on any Cloud PAAS service and frameworks with a quick ramp up time. Can we arrange for quick interview call on upwork ?
