At-Home Telephone Data Collectors

Telephone data collectors administer questionnaires over the telephone. They read the questions aloud clearly and distinctly, and record the respondent's answers accurately. Our studies are typically conducted in English but often require individuals who can also conduct the study in other languages, including Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese, Vietnamese, and Korean. Telephone data collectors are paid on an hourly basis.

English-speaking data collectors start at $8.25 per hour. Bilingual (English/Spanish) data collectors start at $10.25 per hour. Data collectors working weekend hours (Saturday and Sunday) receive an additional $2.00 per hour.

To be eligible to work as a telephone data collector from your home, you must meet the following requirements:

• Able to establish rapport, follow a script as a conversation, and complete surveys with selected respondents.
• Have a quiet home work environment during scheduled work and training hours.
• Own a reliable Windows-based PC computer.
