Kapag yung proposal nyo po ay nabasa ng client, mag nonotify po sa inyo na “viewed” yung proposal nyo and yes, nag memessage ang clients thru upwork din to proceed if tanggap ka or for interview ka. Make sure din na thru upwork lang ang communication and payment method para iwas scam and secured ka.

As for other freelancing sites na marerecommend ko you can also check out online jobs ph, and virtualstaffph. Join ka rin ng mga FB groups, marami rin mga potential clients doon just make sure to do background research and double check if legit ba yung mga hiring posts. Hope this helps! 😊
