I tried to post a job as client, but for my was impossible. The desktop app doesn't allow to do so. I had to post it in another platform. Much easier. But I think the world need to have more than one option, and that is the reason I suggest you to fix this problem. Good luck.

Hi Ernesto,
I checked and it seems that your account is a freelancer one. You need to have a client account in order to post jobs. To create a client account, you can go to Settings > My Teams and choose the 'Create New Account' button at the bottom. After that, choose 'New Client Account'. Once set up, use the account menu at the top-right of your screen to switch between using Upwork as a client or freelancer.
Please note that the Upwork desktop app is designed for collaboration and Payment Protection. Everyone can use it to send Messages. Freelancers also use it to log time on hourly contracts, but it can't be used to post jobs.
Thank you.
