If the client sends you an offer right off the bat, is there a way to see their 'profile'?

I'm sure this has been addressed before, but why do clients not have easily accesibile profile pages? When you click on a freelancer's name, you can see their work history and reviews. To see a client's history, you have to go to the job posting.

 

But, when you receive an offer — without a proposal or an invitation...and no apparent job posting — there's no way to see the client's information (even after accepting the offer). Does anyone know if there's a way around this? I can see the sidebar information, which includes average rating, jobs posted, money spent, and average hourly rate.....but I'd like to see specific feedback, past jobs, and active jobs.

The only way around this (as far as I know) is to hop onto Live Chat with customer support and ask them to send you a link to one of the client's open job posts. I have to do this quite often when I want to see the reviews left for clients. (Convenient, eh?)

 

Sometimes those job posts aren't available, though, so in that case you're stuck.

We had to scream, to beg and to kick to make them display this information. Not long ago, even that was hidden. So the answer is no.

 

Why are they putting so many efforts into hiding these details, I don't know...

Try to look at the offer from the app. Sometimes you get more information there.

If the offer does not contain enough information to accept it, you can also report it as spam.
