Upwork - what does your country specified affect?

Question

Freelance

What is the effect of the specified country? Are people from the US being hired much more often?

Answer 1

Strength, brother, in truth.
By specifying the wrong country, you risk being banned immediately or a little later.

Answer 2

There are really different attitudes towards people from different countries.
But why this question? If you want to specify a country other than yours, then this will be revealed quite quickly when verifying your profile.

Answer 3

On taxes, on the time zone, globally, the country does not affect the work received, at least I did not notice, well, except when a person is needed a person from America and this is indicated, for meetings and the same time, but such works are pennies
