GigSpot Bad Start in January, How is It Now?

March 27, 2017 10:23PM
I just signed up for a GigSpot account due to the MSC requirement for a shop. I now have to access all of the MSC who use it through it. I was going to apply for a job with another MSC but now the app wants me to input all the data such as bank routing and account numbers that I had already input on the MSC site. I am not a fan of spreading that info around. One company gives me the choice of going back to the classic method, but warns that it is permanent. If Gigspot is scaring away shoppers, it might explain why I am seeing more jobs at the end of the month on Shopmetrics sites than usual.

Do not read so much, look about you and think of what you see there.

I partially did my shop tonight on GigSpot. Not sure that I like it in the sense that my shop took longer as I was entering data. Plus looking for a place to do the data entry so I did not stand out. Comments I'm doing at home. Also I clicked on companies which took me to a listing. It also had a link which brings up the shopmetrics job postings for that MSC. So I most likely will not delete my account.

I imagine that using platforms like iSecretShop, Mobiaudit, Gigspot gets more exposure to shoppers. It seems many companies have to go to scheduling companies to fill their jobs. On one hand it makes it simpler to search for jobs. On the other I have developed a nose for bonused shops particularly for new companies or new shops which almost always bonuses the first month or two.
