As someone who's been on Upwork as a freelancer for 10 years, I'm glad to be ahead of the curve.
Clients can still post job openings where they hire nobody but their hiring stats are visible and I can filter out "0 hires" ones. I can only imagine how much healthier the job market would be if employers had to do the same.

- greendestiny_re 3y agoUpwork is worth it if you are willing to make it your full-time job in order to make a profile that will catch the eye of high-quality clients. The basic job proposal spam you described is designed to keep low-quality clients and freelancers engaged and feeding the platform with money. Contact me over on Reddit (u/SgtBrutalisk) and I will give you some tips on how to start.
