How can I know that my profile is approved?

Hello,

 

  1. I would like to know if my profile has been aprroved....?
  2. Can you not have a status marker in the profile information so new users know whether or not they have been approved?

Thx,

Melissa

I recently finished my application and it said congratulations on the log-in page, but how do I know if I'm approved?  It originally said 24 hours, but I'm not sure if the congratulations on the log-in page means I was approved already?

Hi Shane,

 

I checked and it looks like your account has been accepted. Since you already selected a membership plan you should be able to send proposals to jobs on the general marketplace. Please, make sure you check resources in this post to help you get started.

When I long on I get the following message

‘Your profile is under review
You should hear back within 24 hours. You will be able to submit proposals once your profile is approved’

This message has been showing for over a month. Am I approved to work on the platform?
