Which Greg? Greg Zonker? I like that guy. He used to schedule party stores years ago.@ATLShopper wrote:

That's too bad, but more possibilities for me.
Of the 15 shops I have requested of Greg in the past 30 days, 14 were assigned. The missing one was not scheduled due to a rotation violation. Of the hundreds requested over the past year for iPsos in general? Same one not assigned.
Might you be requesting in an ineffective manner? I usually know within an hour of applying if I have been assigned or not.

How would you suggest requesting in an effective manner? I don't know of a better way (and I don't know if one exists) than what I have been doing. I go to the job board, find a shop that I would like to perform, and then apply. I select the date and write in the note which date I can complete the shop. Oftentimes, after I haven't heard anything in a day or two, I'll send a direct email to the scheduler, which usually doesn't receive a response. It certainly depends on which scheduler I'm dealing with. But, in general, it's my belief that IPSOS should generate a much more effective way to schedule shops.

Has anyone EVER gotten a reply from mystery.shopping@ipsos.com?
I have sent three messages with the same question over three days and no reply. It is the only contact offered for the specific shop project I have. Is it just a dummy email address that no one there monitors? Very frustrating. They may have become just too big and lost their way.
