Tns

A man from the survey company TNS called this week and I undertook a short survey. He mentioned they had jobs - what are they like to work for?
November 2010 - a Jamie Oliver book
December 2010 - a pair of earrings. A silk scarf - both on the daily Spin to Win competition.

    Probably you need to give a bit more info.

    I know TNS from Royal Mail surveys. They are an established company.

    Couple of topics come up when you search forums. They might be looking for sales people.

    TNS mystery shopping is a joke now, such a difference from a few years back when they had friendly and knowledgeable allocaters. They were one of a few MS companies sacked last year.
  • It wasn't a mystery shopping job - it was to interview people in their homes on a variety of subjects.

  • Given the jobs market as it is - I suspect that the only reason that there are vacancies is that the pay rate is so low for the effort involved that nobody sticks in the posts! TNS also pay a decent bonus to an existing worker if they find a new worker who sticks around for a short time so this may be the motivation for the offer.
