Is it common to have to requalify for CORI shops?

Two of the companies I have already qualified for now have the graduation caps by them again. One of those companies I've only done one shop for and that was last month with no issues. The other company I've never shopped and just completed qualification for a few days ago.

Also, this should have been added to my "things that irritate" post, but does everyone haveto verify their PayPal email every single time they log in to CORI?

There's a shop I qualified for in March and I also see I have to take the test again. I think maybe because the client has change something...
No to verifying PayPal because I get direct deposit. Once it was verified they haven't asked me to verify it again.

Actually they don't reset tests all that often and only when there is a change in the shop. One that was announced hasn't been changed since February or March. You just hit it at a bad time.

I use direct deposit and have to verify every time I log in. It's annoying. I get the "registration is complete" page afterwards and have to click through it too.

^ Same for me (with DD). I log in, then go through two pages of verifying my information before I get to the actual homepage. It's a little annoying, but nothing that really bothers me.
I apparently have to take the tests again. Annoying at best. Other than OP and me, does anyone else have to take the tests again . . .
The only one I have noticed is the incredibly low paying shop where you have to make 18 circles of the store and comment on what every single employee is doing, while carrying around 2 large items hoping someone offers you a cart. I took the test back in August, noticed a week or so ago that I'm no longer certified. I wouldn't do the shop for $50 so haven't bothered recertifying.

I have to retake the test for one of their jobs. I briefly looked over the test and there's a new item that we have to ask about, so it must have just changed for this month/quarter.
Robert, everyone has to recertify when there is a change.

bgriffin, I know those shops. Did one Friday and another is scheduled for today. The instructions make it sound way more complicated. They are definitely 30 minutes shops. OTOH, my report from Friday took 15 minutes. I can't recall when I last took the test, but I've been good to go for several months. My visits are during the weekdays when the store is not busy and they have the less employees on duty. Friday there were only five. Some shopper around here takes them at the starting rate. I wait out rotation and pick them up for $25 to $40.

The instructions make it sound downright impossible. I was wondering if they got hold of an IKEA shop and emulated it.

LOL at emulating Ikea

Those shops get bonused and are well worth it. They are not hard. I text myself each description. Go when there are less staff like Lisa said. The hard part for me is I want to buy so many things there.

I did one of those the other night and there only three employees: two on the floor and one at the register. Only having to remember the description and interaction with two associates made for an easy shop. Plus it was bonused smiling smiley
The new requirement for one of these shops sounds like it will be a bit of a pain (and take more time) ...

Sounds like a lie for sure folks. Most Cori jobs top out at $30!

Depends where you shop. I've done Cori FF jobs for over $50 while traveling through small towns from Alberta to Manitoba. I've done this particular job for $50 as well. I am happy to get it for $25 though.

Lets not nit pick. I said most jobs top out at $30. I did not say all! I once did a swimming pool shop for this Cori for $100 so na na na na na can you beat that.
Wow. I went out completed a 20 pump gas audit, a mystery shop, grocery shopped, made my Grandmother dinner, completed my reports and IT is still here? Time to pop some corn, pour a glass of wine and enjoy the show.

I can't believe *I'm* the one getting back on topic, but tonight I had to requalify for the DIY store. Ummm. Those are gonna have to be worth more this time around.

They'll get there. Most locations went up in price yesterday afternoon, and each of the scenarios went up in price at the same time for the same location. That should mean that the later scenarios should be pretty sweet for those willing to wait until after the over-eager shoppers snatch up the earliest scenarios.
I did most of them last round at $24, with the new requirements I'm gonna want $30. They're still at $4 here.

The ones in my area started going up ~ just got the commission increase email a couple hours ago. They're at $12 to $14 now. I'll be waiting them out. smiling smiley

I need to go do the re-cert, though.

I just checked some of the other ones in my area and see the same. Odd that the one 2 miles from me is still at $4.

I did a DIY store shop - the first one I ever did for CORI - last month and it paid $32. I looked at the same job for this month, at several different locations, and it was paying a "commission" of $4! What?! I thought it was a typo. I went on to look at some other shops (I'm new to CORI), and I haven't seen one yet that pays a decent shopper fee. Very disappointed. Oh, BTW, I qualified for a shop (didn't do one yet) 9 days ago, and they are asking me to retake the qualification. For $3?! I don't think so...
