Hi Marie! You should start sending proposals. 😄 With your skills, you should get your first project in no time. Take your rejections as fuel to challenge yourself. It will also improve your communication on what type of messaging works to get interviews.

Back when I was new in upwork it took me 3 months before I got my first project. 😄

I guess it will depend on how persistent you are in sending proposals.

Let me know if you need help in anything. 😄

I used to start by dear Mrs/Mr, is it good?

Thank you in advance 😊

Hi Mary and everyone

I came to UPwork recently

 I also ask those who already receive jobs if they can also invite the unemployed to help them, that would be good
