IPSOS

[Fairydusthello]

Hi, has anyone got an experience working for IPSOS as a Field Reaearcher.seems like a flexible role but how does it work would you have to go inside peopes houses to interview them or do it on the doorstep ? Any info would be really helpful - Thanks

I haven't been a researcher for IPSOS but I was interviewed by them about 1 year ago.

I believe that IPSOS researchers don't have to go inside people's homes. However, I found the interview quite long and it was difficult to stand at the door and answer their questions with traffic going by (questions can be quite lot and there are a lot of options on some of them) - so I invited them in and they came in and sat down and it was easier to answer their questions. I guess they could have said they didn't want to come in (there were 2 of them), but they seemed fine with it.

Edit: I should also have said it depends on your research. They also do surveys on public transport then you are not going into people's homes.

Thanks for your reply - that's really useful to know.
