Received Rising Talent but badge and connects not updated

[benjacobsen]

Hello, 

I am new to Upwork and was notified that I am part of the rising talent and will recieve a badge and more connects as a perk. I have refreshed my profile several times and checked my profile settings however nothing seems to have been updated? 

Are you able to advise if I need to do something to activate these changes?

Many thanks,

Ben

Hi Ben,

Once you`ve received an email confirming it can take up to 48 hours for the badge to be awarded on your profile. Once you`ve received the badge it can also take another 48 hours for the connects to be awarded on your profile. Thank you for your patience.
