Is it worth getting platform badges or certifications to boost your profile?
Most platforms now offer their own badges or skill tests that freelancers can display on their profiles, and some people treat them as an easy way to stand out. But it is not always clear whether clients even notice these badges or if they just scroll past them and focus on reviews and work samples instead. Getting certified within a platform shows you understand how things work there, but it may not always translate into more job offers. Do you think platform badges and certifications actually improve your chances of getting hired, or is it mostly just decoration on the profile?
