Hi. I want to become a freelancer for Upwork. Some of my colleagues said I might have to do a skype interview so they can see it's "signing up".

Has anyone gone through this verification process? Exactly what questions did they ask?

I know not everyone has to do this verification,but I just want to be prepared just in case.Thx.

    I'm both a buyer and a seller on Upwork. While I don't know the current vetting process, I also know that they realize that not everybody has a webcam. Some of the people working for me through Upwork have had to re-verify themselves after they've already been producing, (very annoying), and there's always an alternative method. For example, my one freelancer had to scan his government ID and bank statements when he wasn't able to answer their initial questions.

    Even after you get in, there are voluntary tests covering many areas of expertise. I'd advise only taking the ones that you have some reasonable confidence. e.g., If you're not comfortable with a given language, don't take a spelling or grammar test in that language. Focus instead on an area that you know you'll do well.

    In short, if you're a real person looking to work an honest business offering a service to others, there really shouldn't be a problem.
