  • This is probably a really stupid question but maybe someone who shops for RE can answer!

    I have my first assignment tomorrow night, I have just printed the questionnaire. Do I fill it in by hand and scan it to them or when i progress with the assignment does it give me the option to fill it in online?

    Also, on the printed copy, it says to explain if you tick a certain answer but there is no space to do it!

    This may sound stupid but I really don't want to mess up first time!

    I have been with RETAIL MAXIM for about 3 months, and I have had a fair few assignments. Think they get in touch after a few weeks of registering and then send text messages whenever there is a job available in your area. I tend to give them a call and ask for jobs in my general area if I have spare time. They do various different clients, and unlike GR/GAP, it doesn't get boring. ** STRAWI3ERRY, normally you fill in the paper copy once you are out of sight of the outlet/store/restaurant/whatever. Do this in your car or back at home if you have a good memory. If it's RE, you log on, and follow the instructions. I think it's something like continue and agree with the instructions, click all over the place until you get to the stage where you input all your data. Don't forget to keep your receipt if you have to submit one. Enjoy it. ** As for FRONTLINE FOCUS, I registered, got my password etc, went onto their scary site and unsubscribed straight away. What the **** is P*** J****?

    I have only done one assignment for RE but I printed the form off and then completed it online, if I remember rightly, if you say YES or NO to a question, then an box comes up for you to elaborate. I think they ask you to print it purely so you know what is expected of you in full.

    Please anybody correct me if i'm wrong but I think i'm right :D

    Have done my first assignment for GAP tonight and it went (i'm glad to say!) really well.

    Have submitted my report online so hopefully it will be ok ! How long does it take before you know if it's been accepted or not - anyone got any ideas?

    Have registered with another site tonight too so hopefully i'll be busy shopping over the next few weeks !

    If you mention a mystery shopping company and name one of their clients you are breaching your contracts !!!

    As far as i am aware, mystery shops dont get rejected. They only reject if you were suppose to upload a reciept and you dont. Even then if you e-mail them and have a good reason they may accept. But on a general basis they wont reject because you have actually completed the work for them and submitted on time so they have no reason to reject.
  • oh wensie sorry i think that may have been me! going back to edit!

    Does anybody have any experience with Frontline Focus? I can't figure out how to use the website, there's nowhere to put my shopper id and password. Do I have to email them everytime I want to apply for a job?

    Thanks for any help
