Hi, Isaiah4031a! Thanks for the PM. I don't mind answering on the forum in case anyone has a similar question in the future.
For Shoppers' View, we do not have rules in place about having a certain rating with us in order to be assigned shops. We look at the shopper's history more than the number. So, if your rating is low because you did not follow instructions or because of excessive late shops, flakes, and cancellations, this will impact the likelihood of you being assigned shops. However, if you rating is low because you are new (SASSIE starts new shoppers out at 5), we aren't going to penalize you for it.
For phone shops, we will generally assign a shopper up to 5 at a time, if we can. However, this depends on many factors. For example, if we have a lot of applications, we try to spread them out to as many shoppers as we can. This gives our clients fresh voices and perspectives. We also tend to give preference to shoppers who live closer to a location, especially if its in an area with a heavy dialect or accent. So, if you are applying for a lot of phone shops at once, make sure you hit up the ones that are closest to you first!
TroyHawkins' advice about searching for phone shops by widening your radius is great! I know on our Job Board, you can click "Additional Filters" and it will show a drop down menu called "Project type." From this menu, you can select phone shops. We also have a filter for website shops.
I hope that helped. It's been a couple of years since I worked in the phones department, but if you have any specific questions that I didn't answer, feel free to email us at
shoppers@shoppersview.com. This email goes to all of our schedulers, so someone will be able to help.
