Hi, all! I am Kimberly from the Philippines. I am a fresh graduate taking up a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration Major in Financial Management. Though I am a fresh graduate, I still do have experience in some jobs, such as Front Desk Officer, Typist, and Encoder. With the course I took up, we have been taught data entries, spreadsheets, Microsoft Word, exporting PDF, and many more. Moreover, the jobs that I had before helped me to practice more on being computer literate. Since I am new here on Upwork, I am hoping that I can learn many things from others. I am hoping that I could gain more knowledge and skills in some other fields. I got here on Upwork searching for jobs because someone recommended it to me. I am hoping that I could get some clients' attention on viewing my proposal. Also, the reason why I tried looking for jobs here because I wished to earn sufficient amount of money that could help our family's daily expenses. 

Thank you and hope to know more people here and explore Upwork!

Hi! I'm Venice Gumarao, from the Philippines. I'm a 2nd year political science student, and I'm new in freelancing. I haven't got any jobs yet but I'm looking forward to finding a client that would be patient for me to learn the job asked. I'm very adaptable, I'm a fast learner but I'm also in need of a mentor as I am new here. How can I land my first client? I am a feature editor at a school publication for 8 years. I do creative writing, content writing, poems, translations, proofreading. Anything that requires writing, I can do.

Hi eevryone, I'm new to upwork. I have been a Customer Service Representative for 13 years now, I have handled voice accounts and chat support experience. I am wondering if it's gonna be a big challenge being a VA or a freelancer taking on tasks? Can anyone give me an idea on where I can learn more about the apps that's mostly used in the job?

Thank you.

Hello Upwork community! 

I'm Xiomara, currently living in the USA. I've been an ESOL teacher and majored in Linguistics with a certificate in teaching English as a second language. Currently, I'm trying to find work as a freelance writer. I'm really excited to branch out and expand my writing portfolio. I write narrative fiction for my own enjoyment, but I also enjoy writing blogs about wellness and feminist topics. I also love teaching English to children so would be interested in creating learning content for young English learners. I'm familiar with SEO writing and am learning how to utilize ChatGPT to my advantage too. I can't wait to get started and hope to find work soon! 

How have your experiences been on Upwork so far?
