New to Upwork with no experience to online job

Hello! I worked in the government agency for almost 7 years as an Administrative Assistant and Secretary to a private company for 5 years. I want to work as a freelancer to Upwork and fortunately to get a client and gain experience. Since, I'm familiar with clerical and secretarial duties, I think being a virtual assistant is the right job for me,  but I have no experience doing online jobs or being a freelancer, because it's my first time to use Upwork. So, I want to get an advice or tips on how to get a client even though I have no experience,Certificates or Portfolio.

 

Thanks!
