Can You Apply If Your Profile Skills Don’t Exactly Match the Job’s Mandatory Skills?

Hello,

If a job appears under Best Matches but the mandatory skills listed in the job post don’t exactly match the skills listed on my profile (even though I have relevant experience), can I still apply without this negatively affecting me?

Does Upwork require an exact skill keyword match, or is overall relevance more important?

Thanks for your help!

I achieved financial, time, and location freedom when I mastered Upwork.

I created this group to help other freelancers and agencies do the same.
