    Hi, how can you improve your rating on certain sassie sites from 5 when the only jobs ever available in my area are for ratings of 6 or higher ??


    Thanks in advance for any replies

    The only way I did this, was picking up some 'crappy' low paying job which was a 5. For Bare it was doing a computer shop recommendation where the brief and training took longer than the job. Worth keep an eye on the boards.

    If any of the jobs have been hanging around a while (like the pizza jobs) email the allocator and ask them if you can do the job, a shy bairn gets nowt.

    I don't think there is any way around this... I know that Tern's Sassie rating system allows you to apply for any job and doesn't limit you by your rating, this is surely a better system for sites to use? :)

    And then write a really well written and accurate report with all the pictures and photos they want.

    I had an unusual end to my shopping day thanks to a pigeon with an upset stomach.

    Only because you can't see jobs any jobs your rating is too low for ;-)

    RA is pending for Monday for the sore throats.
  • Urgh loads of MF pharmacy jobs still hanging round in my area ish. I did one (literally around the corner) but meh the rest are in places I wouldn't set foot in for 10x the fee.
  • I've just done something for GR but I can't upload it. Their system is really hit and miss.
  • Now that's an interesting prospect...a brief which requires us to take photos of popular items in high footfall areas in the run up to christmas, without getting any people or obstacles in them. Presumably we would also have to lock the multitude of brand ambassadors waving testing strips around the place into some kind of cupboard so that they don't notice us. Sounds as much fun as trying to talk to a phone salesman at the moment :)

    A dream doesn't become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work

    Yeah - I had a look at those - seems there could be a high risk of rejection if the photo's are not what they are looking for. Thankfully can't do the dates and wild horses will not get me in phone shop in December - learnt that lesson last year.
