Paying just to apply for a job still feels strange to many people who are new to freelancing platforms. On Upwork, freelancers must spend connects before a client even reads their proposal, and there is no guarantee of getting hired after spending that money. Some say this system helps filter serious applicants, while others see it as an unfair cost added on top of platform fees. Should Upwork stop charging freelancers just to apply for open jobs every time?
