What members can verify

How these signals are calculated

Completed hangouts counts recorded calls lasting at least one minute. Short starts under one minute are excluded.
Conversations counts recorded chat sessions and calls, while average session length uses completed hangouts only.
Shared goals use broad categories after at least three saved goals; otherwise they are clearly marked as profile-based.
