I'm still waiting patiently for Gap to release their September assignments. Would have thought they'd have done it by now.
C'mon Gap, get yer finger out!

Don't like the look of the 'up to five pounds'. Not too sure I'll bother... (plus my brain hurts now from trying to think up psyedonyms for all those places.)

Well, now i've got brain ache from trying to figure out what they all are! :rotfl:

A quick question please. Just requested a job on GAP (or GYP :rotfl: ) and it's status is immediately showing as rejected/cancelled. I thought it normally was pending untill your heard from them. Can anyone clarify this for me please.

Thanks

OK now that's strange. The job was still there when I logged back on and so I selected it again but with a different date from the drop down list and now it's saying pending and the rejected/cancelled one has gone. They don't make things easy do they!

Personally, i'd be delighted to see some jobs available on Gap right now. There have been none all day in my area - probably in anticipation of the September release..Hmm

I think they like you to choose the earliest date possible, even though it might have a broad range of dates. That's happened to me once, when I first started with them, so I emailed right away to ask why it was rejected - they said someone else had chosen an earlier date.

Usually it goes from "pending" to "approved" almost immediately so check your job page again & you also get an email.

Are there any mystery shopper companies that do the tax for you and you don't have to figure it out yourself?
