There are three in my immediate area for which I applied on 02/03; they are due tomorrow. I thought that perhaps something had gone wrong with their scheduling software and that these were assigned to another shopper, so I deleted the applications on Friday. Upon deleting the applications, they showed up as active assignments again, so I immediately re-applied. I meet the qualifications and have the technology needed to complete the shops. While I've never worked for CI before, I have been doing mystery shopping on and off for more than ten years.
They have 4 more about 90 minutes from me that are also due tomorrow and which I wouldn't mind going to do if they need the help. Not super pay, but really easy shops; I don't have to pay for gas because of my regular job - and I'm off tomorrow. Since I've never worked for CI before, I know I have to take what I can get to prove myself. Other shoppers have really good things to say about them, so I want to start building a relationship with them.
My question is: Does CI normally not assign shops until the due date?
