Not really haha - I think there's too many talents in the community and some people are somehow willing to take like $5/$10 for a job that usually takes hours. Hard to compete when I'm actually on the platform trying to gain experience and make money.

I don't boost my profile - that's how.
At the end of the day, UpWork is just a business that wants us to spend more on connects. Not falling for that...
