What The Hell is Going On Over On Upwork?
<p>I’ve decided to get 100 career rejections in a year, and to kick it off, I spent some time applying for jobs on Upwork — a platform to connect employers to freelancers.</p>
<h2>I applied for 5 jobs.</h2>
<ul>
<li>2 were translating jobs</li>
<li>2 were obvious content mills</li>
<li>1 was super vague — I’m still not sure what I applied for.</li>
</ul>
<h2>I got rejected from all of them. Kind of.</h2>
<p>3 jobs did accept my proposal only to ask me to message them on telegram. Upwork had taken down all 3 jobs before I could respond.</p>
<p>After a few days, I was given a notif letting me know my proposal was declined (and my credits refunded).</p>
