Paid Focus Group Opportunity: Placer County Residents Needed

GENERAL INFO

We are looking for Placer County residents to participate in a paid, in-person focus group running over three weeks, from September 14 through October 2 (Monday through Friday).

SCHEDULE: Participants must be available in person from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on multiple days in September and October. Specific dates will be shared during the interview.

This is a multi-week commitment. Applicants must be available for all dates to be eligible. Because sessions run on a fixed schedule, punctual arrival and full-day attendance are required at each session in order to receive compensation.

COMPENSATION: $300 per day, paid by PayPal or Venmo, at the conclusion of the study.

LOCATION: In-person sessions will be held in Auburn, CA.

Eligible applicants will be contacted by email for a short Zoom interview, during which you will be asked to demonstrate your ability to access our online polling platform, watch a short video, and answer several questions about that video accurately.

Please be aware that if you are selected, we will need to verify your identity for payment purposes. You will be asked to submit or show a legible copy or photo of your driver's license or California ID (instructions will be provided for which portions may be redacted).

If you have previously participated in one of our focus groups, you may not be eligible to participate in this event.
TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR PARTICIPATION, YOU MUST:

1) Have a valid California Driver’s License or California ID;

2) Be a resident of Placer County;

3) Be able to read, write, and speak in English;

4) Be able to attend in-person events in AUBURN and online ZOOM events; and
