Hello Jeremiah,

 

I am more than happy to help. What have you done so far to land a job on Upwork?

How many proposals did you submit? Are you tailoring the jobs to the needs of the client and writing out how you can fix their problem/issue? Also, I would also answer the question, "Why should I hire you?"

Hi Dushan,

 

Upwork currently requires new freelancers to do one of two things before being able to submit a proposal for a job: subscribe to our Freelancer Plus membership plan for $20 USD a month, or purchase 100 Connects for $15 USD. After you fulfill this requirement you will also receive 50 free Connects to further help you get started on Upwork.
