My job offer is not accepted

Hi. I want to ask a question. I think I have filled my profile enough but I still cannot get a job. The offers I send are not accepted.
Could this be because I just opened my account and have no previous work history on the upwork platform?
That's why I'm thinking of doing 5-10 jobs for free because no job offers are currently being accepted. Maybe I can get a job if I fill my work history this way.

what are you thinking?
thanks in advance.

That would be very silly, as jobs with nothing paid never show on the profile anyway.

It is also completely wrong to "train" clients to expect free (or even very cheap) work from professionals- It hurts all freelancers, it hurts the platform and ultimately it hurts clients.

Well. thanks for your comment. What's your idea? What should I do to get a job?
