Overview

About:

UpWork is a platform where clients will post projects that they require assistance with. These tend to be IT-related tasks – for example, ‘help remove malware from my laptop for $80’.

Although there are a wide range of projects on this platform, I have labelled this as advanced skill level due to the tasks often being more niche and difficult.

DONT LET THIS PUT YOU OFF! More difficult = more money.
