ผมเพิ่งเริ่มหางานฟรีแลนซ์บน Upwork และคอร์สนี้ช่วยได้มากจริง ส่วนที่สอนปรับโปรไฟล์ให้ดูน่าเชื่อถือทำให้ผมเริ่มได้รับการตอบกลับจากลูกค้ามากขึ้น เทคนิคการเขียน proposal ให้ตรงกับงานก็นำไปใช้ได้ทันที ผมได้งานแรกหลังจากส่งไปไม่กี่ใบ อยากให้มีตัวอย่าง proposal เพิ่มอีกสักหน่อย แต่โดยรวมถือว่าคุ้มและแนะนำสำหรับมือใหม่
