Job description

Welcome! We are conducting a research study with Shopping professionals. The goal is to collect real-world professional scenarios that will help train AI models to handle complex advisory situations. The objective of this research is to help AI understand real shopping situations — especially those involving nuances, trade-offs, and hidden details that completely change the required approach.

Conversation-only scenarios

This form exclusively accepts scenarios that are resolved through a conversation or consultation. No tool use or file uploads are required. Submissions that depend on digital tools should be submitted in the tool-supported scenario form instead.

  • Personal shoppers and styling professionals

  • Retail buyers and merchandisers

  • E-commerce and customer experience professionals

  • Gift consultants and event planners

  • Experienced shoppers who navigated a complex purchase decision

The use of AI is not permitted. Generic or superficial responses will be rejected. Your story must reflect real experience in the field and knowledge of how situations actually work in practice.Required for success: a scenario that is resolved primarily through conversation or consultation. Submissions with clear hidden details and concrete constraints are significantly more valued.Approval criteria: Coherence between fields and the story, real and domain-specific details, at least 3 concrete constraints, and a clear hidden detail that changes the required approach.
