Hi Vladimir! I have a friend whose profile is not being approved and she submitted her revised work for about 6 times already. Just wanted some help in what she can add/improve on her profile as she's very serious in being part of Upwork. Thanks in advance!

Hello Upwork Team,
Please help me. I've been trying to update my profile for sometime now but it is still being rejected. I'm new to this industry and I'm really looking forward to get online jobs from Upwork. I have to look after my grandmother so I really need to work at home.
Hoping for your kind consideration.
Sincerely,
Aaron

If there's anything that I need to change in my profile please let me know. I'm really interested to be a part of Upwork's freelancers. Thank you!
I'm sorry for having multiple posts. I have a similar one which I posted earlier in the Asia Pacific group because I wasn't able to send a message here until now.

Hello, I recently set up a profile and submitted it without 100% completion. It was rejected and I have since fully completed my profile, including taking some tests.
I have followed the instructions on the help page and cannot find a button for resubmission.
What can be done to resolve this?
Many thanks
Helen

I don't get it. They won't accept my profile but If I have a client with whom I want to work with, then they'll open my account to work with my client ONLY. Why would I bring you a client since you are not accepting my profile? (Question from my friend who is trying to start working on UpWork)
Jan 21, 2018 07:23:22 AM by Joanne P
Hi Olivera,
Upwork will now review new freelancer registrations to determine if our marketplace does not have opportunities for them based on their combination of skills and experience. For more information about this, please check this announcement from Garnor. Your friend will also receive a notification email about this step with more information. Please have your friend refer to the email sent to him. Thank you!

The solution is to spend a few years aquiring and confirming an in-demand skill and then trying again.
Wildly attempting to get approved by throwing half-baked skills at your profile in casee something lets you in is a bad strategy.

Hi Ashikul,
Upon checking, your account has been approved. Having a complete profile with your work history and list of skills can help a potential client learn whether you are the right person for their project. Here's a very helpful article on how you can enhance your feelancer profile. Add necessary skills, certifications, portfolio, and the like to make your profile stand out to potential clients.

Hi Upwork community,
I am posting this on behalf of a friend because she is experiencing technical difficulties posting it. Here is her post:
I have been trying to get my profile approved as an editor and it has been rejected 3 times now because there is insufficient demand for my skills or expertise.
1) Is there a glut of editors in general on Upwork (proofreaders, copyeditors, developmental editors)? I am game to develop my skills but don't want to hone them in the wrong direction if there are certain types of editing that are much more in demand. The skills I have posted on my profile are: Proofreading, Copyediting, Technical Editing, Developmental Editing, Content Editing, Story Editing, Content Writing, Copywriting
2) I have been told not to add anything to my portfolio as it's not necessarily helpful as an editor. Could this be affecting my approval?
Thanks in advance.
Looking forward to being a part of the Upwork community.

Hi Marie,
We're sorry to hear that your friend's registration was not accepted. If she has more relevant skills or experiences to add, she can update and resubmit her profile and we’ll take another look to see if there is a demand for the new skills. If she doesn't have additional skills or experience to add now, she can always update her profile in the future. She can check out this article for tips on building a great profile
We hope this information helps!

Hi Ayoub,
Your profile is approved and you have already selected a membership plan. Happy UpWorking!

Hi thank you for your interest. My account is confirmed. I guess the photo did not meet community standards. My account was approved as I changed it photograph.
Feb 17, 2018 11:57:27 AM by Umut Erdal I
I'm waiting for my account to be approved even though it's been 40 + hours ..

@ Umut --
I have no specific information on your account approval, but I would like to take this opportunity to ask WHY IN THE WORLD you would create a professional profile that includes a photograph of you lighting a cigarette. (?) You aren't applying for work as James Dean, you know.
Just... So. much. wrong.
Feb 17, 2018 12:56:56 PM by Umut Erdal I
Hello there. I do not know which country you are. Putting pictures with cigarettes can be a shame in your country. I can understand that. But I am not a person who likes taking pictures. There was this photo. I've installed this. That's the only reason. It's been 2 days since my account opened. I will create a more professional profile over time..
