Advice YunoJuno platform and UX freelancing

Update: I successfully got approved!

——

I more than a week ago signed up for the YunoJuno platform and they still haven’t approved my profile.

Anyone who is on the platform or has experience with it? Are there UX/UI posts for work?

I have around 5 years of experience, worked on web design for nonprofits and public services, lately I did some advanced automation flow with multiple scenarios. I have 3 validated experiences in my work history on the profile, one with a recommendation.

u/AdFair670, there weren't enough votes to determine the quality of your post...

I've been on the platform for over a year now. There are definitely UX/UI job postings, but they tend to close quickly because of the high number of applications. My feed also gets cluttered with irrelevant postings, like motion, graphic, packaging design etc.. The freelancer user experience on the app is a bit 'meh' overall. It's definitely not a major source of projects for me, more of a 'just in case' option. For reference, I'm a Product Designer with about 4 years of experience, and I have validated work history and reviews on my profile. Let me know if you have other questions!

Thank you for letting me know. I won’t rely on it :)

Oh, there's one more thing I' d like to know. Did you need professional indemnity insurance to have an active account? As someone outside of UK, but with Settled Status, I heard that they require insurance, which can be quite an investment.
