Was sure Upwork was a total scam but it landed me my best gig
I spent 2 years avoiding it because every post I saw was about fake jobs and lowballers lol. Then a buddy in Denver told me he got a $4k retainer off there so I tried it, and within 3 weeks I had a steady contract editing marketing copy for a startup. Anyone else have a platform they wrote off that ended up working out?

My cousin spent 8 months on Upwork applying to 200+ jobs before she got a single response, and even that one paid $15 for a full day of work. I'd still steer most people away from it honestly.

Hundreds of people make decent money on Upwork every day, is it really that impossible?

My friend applied to 150 jobs and got 2 replies that paid less than minimum wage.
