I think that we, as a freelancer, waste our time here at Upwork. Why?
1- You spent money to apply for a job. This is illegal.
2- After you have spent time and money, the client never answers you. After that, your time and money are going to the toilet. It's hilarious! Right? Who is feeling like me? Comment below! 😊😜

Me. In three weeks I have had 3 job scams on Upwork and two on LinkedIn. I am discouraged with spending so many connects and getting no response.

This has happened to me well over a hundred times this year, almost all with Boosted Connects. It's infuriating.

You realize it costs them nothing to post and can post as many as they want charging as much as they want, right? We are the business as freelancers. Otherwise nobody pays anything- unless it is the rare transaction that is real. Rare. As much as I've made here, I've spent FAR more. If you see they've never done a job (no stars, no number next to how many they've done) they are never coming back, period. Don't waste your money or connects.

The work pool is saturated. How do I stand out in my niche? would you kindly look at my profile and let me know?

Please write four compelling paragraphs for the Summary with a focus on the first sentence because it's in client search and remove the emoticons.

I am a senior system engineer. I was introduced to a head hunter overseas by my partner on linkedin. This head hunter didn't even talk to me a word and then spoke with my bf and told him can’t help.
