It means the client receive 10 to 15 proposals for its project.

Client has send 2 invites of which 1 inivte is unanswered. And 1 is answered that is showing as interveiwed.

The client hired one freelancer.

You can't know at this time who is hired. but check it in jobs in progress now or after few days,  you'll get the name of one who hired for this job posting. But you can't know at what price.

So if they hire a freelancer it shows hired, does it means no other freelancer can/should apply for the job?

Yes, unless the client specifically is looking to hire more than one.

If it says you can propose then the client left the job open (not private) which means you could technically propose.  I can't remember if it shows in that box but I know at the top of the it says that they are looking for N freelancers sometimes so if they are looking for multiples it might be worth proposing.  However, I think better connect strategy would be to not to unless it is a  job you feel quite strongly about.

But obviously if they dont' say anything about hiring more freelancers than it is almost never a good idea to fire a proposal.

Hi, does it also show the number of hires even if it's 'fixed priced' rather than hourly?
