Amazon Flex Weekly Online Q&A Sessions
The entire process of signing up for Amazon Flex was a bit drawn out. I applied about a month ago, but didn’t hear word until about two weeks ago that I was approved as a shopper. There must have been a long waiting list since shoppers onboarded 6 months ago received responses within a week. If you applied for Amazon Flex and have not heard back, you can either wait or email them directly to find out the status of your application. I can only guess that there is a long waiting list in many markets.
When I was officially approved as an Amazon Flex shopper, I got this generic email:
Once I filled out the form, confirmed I had the requisite car (I have a full size sedan, but you may get rejected if you have a smaller car), and the type of phone. you come upon this screen telling you to download the application:
I tried this linked and said it was expired. I emailed Amazon support and got a followup email with a valid URL to download the application. You can see the below post about how to download the Amazon Flex App, since you cant find it anywhere else online:
In the same email, it told me about the Q&A Session. There is no onboarding process to speak of apart from the videos but it can help shoppers with problems they are having with the application.
Amazon Flex Weekly Online Q&A Sessions
I joined the session to get the link to download the Amazon Flex iOS application. It shows up as a link on the bottom of the page inside the Q&A session. For the most part, no one is really asking questions and everyone is just following the directions on the slide. If there are questions, you can either call in to ask a question, or type in a question into the chat box. I believe that the chat box goes directly to the moderator and not everyone else, but be careful about entering in personal information like phone numbers or social security numbers unless they tell you to.
There are typically two sessions, 1PM EST and 4PM EST Monday-Friday (except on a US Holiday).
Below is the part of the email I got highlighting the Q&A Sessions:
