Rising star badge not awarded

[mhassan157]

I have not received my rising start badge although i have completed all the requirements checklist. Maybe any moderator can help me? To my fellow freelancers, does it really affect the kind of work i get and the kinds of job available to me?

Hi Muhammad,

Rising Talent status is automatically applied to users whose profiles meet all of the requirements. You can have a look at this article about Becoming Rising Talent to see what the exact requirements are that you must meet to obtain a Rising Talent badge on your profile. Once the requirements are met, you'll be invited into the program automatically and receive the badge within 48 hours.

Thank you.

You haven't. Your only client marked you down in the essential categories of skills and quality, which essentially disqualifies you.

Oh thanks for the clarification. Appreciated.

I don't believe it has a large impact on what jobs you can get. Some people even report they get less interest after being top rated.
