- Make sure to write a proofreading oriented profile description that highlights your experience and other important things.
- Take a few Upwork English related tests (if you plan to proofread in English, of course) so that you can further show your future clients that you know what you're doing!
- Apply, Apply, Apply! Don't lose hope! You should have plenty of connects to be able to apply to a bunch of jobs, and I'm sure someone will hire you for one!
Let me know if you have any questions!

Excellent advice, but only if the OP is actually a proofreader since Upwork is not the place to learn a new skill.

Proofreading is hereditary. You can't become a proofreader, you should be born as one.
