I have a shop scheduled with them next month and I was wondering what the reports were like. Any info would be great!!

Lots of required interactions, lots of narrative!

Long, long, long....but if it something you want to do, the pay is usually pretty decent. The report I did with them said it was 8 pages and 2-3 hours which I think was a fair estimate. The pages are about each interaction or area and require narratives. They pay a 'bonus' for getting it in on time which also is nice. (and I got a bonus bonus on my first report with them for doing a thorough job).
Just wondering, Spotnnotfarm, if after reading these posts, you've started hyperventilating yet? smiling smiley

LOL!! Somewhat! About how long do the reports take to enter? Oh gosh! What have I gotten myself into!!!
I guess you'll find out! smiling smiley

I haven't been done one, so you'll have to let me know. smiling smiley

Spotnnotfarm, the reports usually take the amount of time that the company has estimated on the shop detail page. If it says 1-2 hours, plan on it definitely taking at least an hour and a half to get done. If it says 2-3 hours, plan on it falling within that range. I actually just applied for a heavily bonused weekend shop with them, so it doesn't scare me too bad to do another one with them! LOL
Spotnnotfarm,

The shops vary in time so it is hard to say more than the shops and reports are very detailed. The best answer I can give you is to read your instructions and guides because this company does a great job helping their shoppers with their materials. If they say the report will take 2-3 hours, it will take that for most people. You can use the sample report as a guide. I suggest you create a plan of action for the day of your shop to cover all the required observations.

Most of all, have fun with it. smiling smiley

Happily shopping Rhode Island and nearby Massachusetts and Connecticut
I'd recommend brining your fridge and bed desk-side...maybe a toilet too.

I love the company, can't deal with their reports, it's just too much.

Agree, very long reports. Double the time and the lengh of the report that is given in the shop description.
Just did my first shop with them yesterday. Pay was decent and the report took me a little over an hour. Many interactions and they want you details as to exactly what people said and what happened, but they were all short interactions. Now just waiting to see whether they like my report!

They gave me a 100% on the shop. I probably went overboard on the details, but it still only took me a little over an hour to enter a report they said was 1-2 hours. Does not include time for notes I wrote down in the car (I left halfway through to write down notes), so I probably ended up at 1 1/2 hours. I had five required interactions plus restrooms and overall facility if that gives you an idea. They really want to know how employees handle cash and what they say.
