[Sarah G_]

Get ahead. Grow. Shine. Become a ServiceNow Rising Star.  If you contribute to the ServiceNow Community and enjoy sharing your experiences, this program is for you! 💚 You could be named ServiceNow Rising Star when you submit your application between June 30, 2026 - July 13, 2026. Please keep in mind: Applications for this calendar year will close at 11:59 PM PDT on July 13, 2026 for review. Click Here to Apply

To get started, simply answer the questions in the application, and then upload some of your proudest community contributions from this year. 

A Few Things 📋:

✔️ Membership: All candidates should fill out the online application form completely. This entails answering the questions and then providing links to your content contributions. For existing Rising Stars, you are also strongly encouraged to 1️⃣ upload recent content that demonstrates your continued impact and 2️⃣ revisit your application to make sure the information is up-to-date. The application closes on July 13, 2026 at 11:59 PM PDT.

An announcement highlighting all Rising Star members will be shared by early September! If selected, your membership will be valid until the following Rising Star nomination window begins.* All Rising Stars are expected to continue posting community content that demonstrates your awareness of the ServiceNow ecosystem and/or your hands-on knowledge of the ServiceNow AI Platform. Additionally, Rising Star members are required to uphold the Code of Conduct agreement at all times. 🌏🌍🌎

*Please note: If you are also interested in applying for ServiceNow MVP during the nomination window in December, then you can still apply here. However, once you are inducted into the ServiceNow MVP Community Program, your membership as Rising Star will become deactivated. You cannot be a ServiceNow MVP and Rising Star at the same time.

✔️ Selection Criteria: Your application may be considered for selection if you are a ServiceNow Community member who (1) upholds the Community Code of Conduct and (2) post original replies, answers, blogs, and other contents that demonstrate your product knowledge and experience in the ecosystem. Your community contents and activities must be up-to-date within the past few months of the calendar year.

I was confused about the same thing earlier as well. However, this is the correct page to land on. Simply fill in the required information and click on Save—that's it, and you're done.

Hello @Sarah G_ 

During the applying for Rising Star, I saw after clicking on submit application it took SSO authentication and it took me on updated page, I have updated my all details and my core areas and link and all and click on save, but there is no submt button and after save the details I didn't receive any mail or any notification for confirmation that I have submitted successfully the form for Rising star.

Could you please help me on this as on priority.

Go go go rising stars! 🚀

If you are on the fence about applying, take this as your sign to just go for it. Having just attended my very first Knowledge conference (K26) this past May, I can tell you firsthand that the ServiceNow community is incredibly welcoming.

Whether you are just starting out or working toward advanced milestones like CTA, sharing your knowledge and engaging here opens doors you cannot even imagine. Don't let imposter syndrome hold you back. Put yourself out there, apply, and let's see you shine! 💚

The Rising Star Community Program is a great initiative that recognizes community contributions while providing opportunities to learn, network with fellow ServiceNow professionals, receive mentorship, and grow as a trusted content contributor. Wishing all applicants the very best!
