Hi there!
Julia Quinlivan here, Research Operations Manager at Accelerant Research (https://www.accelerantresearch.com/). We have a job opportunity that I believe is perfect for anyone who might be interested in a 1-3 week job opportunity!
Here are some more details!:
THE OPPORTUNITY
We are partnering with MDRG (they are the front-facing company, so hires would be representing MDRG) on a retail field study for a major national wireless retailer, and we have immediate openings for friendly professionals who can travel on short notice for well paying ($44/hr) research work.
When I say "research", this is very entry level (more details below). We just need people who can be friendly and follow simple directions, while representing MDRG and our wireless carrier client well. We are paying $44/hour, with all travel expenses reimbursed. Hires for the job pick the city, and since we send people in pairs to the same city and same stores, they can bring a partner to do the job with (who of course will be paid at the same rate and will have all of their expenses reimbursed as well). This can be a friend, a sibling, whoever, as long as they are also appropriate for the position. If they don't have a partner in mind, let us know and we can help pair them up.
PAY & AVAILABILITY
- $44/hour, 8-hour days(about $352/day before taxes)
-The project runs from August 6th-23rd, and while we'd love to find people who can commit to the whole run time, we are also open to people who can only do 1 or 2 weeks. Week 1 is August 6th-9th, Week 2 is August 11th-16th, Week 3 is August 18th-23rd.
- There is a 1-hour lunch break, plus a 10-minute break every 1–2 hours (more frequent during slower traffic periods)
PICK THE CITY
- Columbus, OH
- Dallas, TX
- Los Angeles, CA
- Minneapolis, MN
- Phoenix, AZ
- Las Vegas, NV
THE ROLES
Every pair fills both — you decide who takes which:
1. Observer: quietly and objectively tallies store foot traffic, no customer interaction required. Good fit if you're detail-oriented and comfortable with quiet, focused work.
2. Intercept: approaches customers after their visit to invite them to a 5-minute survey for a $10 e-gift card. Good fit if you're outgoing and comfortable striking up conversations with strangers.
Business casual dress for both roles.
WHAT'S COVERED
Round-trip airfare, hotel, meals, transportation — no cost to the hire. Want to extend the stay a few extra days on their own time? The flight's covered either way!
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
- 18+
- Proof of ability to represent a company professionally, and proof of a fit for filling either to Observer or Intercept role (past work, freelance, or volunteer experience)
- A Real ID or valid passport if flying
Since this is a fast-moving project, I'm happy to jump on a quick call or Zoom call to answer questions.
Please pass this along to anyone you know that might be interested.
Thank you very much,
Julia

What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in market research analyst jobs.
- Bachelor's degree in marketing, statistics, social science, or a related field
- Proficiency in survey platforms such as Qualtrics, SurveyMonkey, or similar tools
- Experience with statistical software including SPSS, SAS, or R
- Ability to synthesize quantitative and qualitative data into actionable business recommendations
- Familiarity with syndicated data sources such as Nielsen, IRI, or Kantar
- Strong written and verbal communication skills for presenting findings to non-technical stakeholders
Tips for Your Market Research Analyst Job Search
Tailor your resume to research methods
Hiring managers look for specific methodologies, so list the ones you know by name: conjoint analysis, MaxDiff, regression modeling, or focus group facilitation. Generic phrases like 'conducted research' won't stand out the way named techniques do.
Highlight tools beyond Excel
Proficiency in SPSS, SAS, Qualtrics, or Tableau signals you can handle primary data, not just summarize secondary reports. Name the platform and describe the scale of the dataset or project you used it on.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists market research analyst openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Filter by industry to sharpen targeting
Market research skills transfer across sectors, but employers often prefer candidates who know their customer base. Search by industry vertical, such as consumer packaged goods or healthcare, and adjust your resume summary to reflect familiarity with that sector's research context.
Prepare a research portfolio before interviewing
Bring a deck or document showing one end-to-end project: the business question, methodology, sample design, key findings, and the decision it informed. Interviewers for analyst roles routinely ask for a work sample, and having one ready separates you immediately.
Negotiate on title and scope, not just pay
When you receive an offer, ask which research vendors you'll manage, what budget you'll control, and whether the role owns primary data collection or relies on syndicated sources. Scope directly affects your career trajectory and what you can claim on your next resume.
Market Research Analyst Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most market research analysts?
The companies hiring the most market research analysts right now include JPMorganChase, AbbVie, and Thomas & Reed, with the largest share of openings in New York, California, and Illinois, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Demand tends to be highest in consumer goods, healthcare, and financial services organizations with dedicated insights teams.
How many market research analyst jobs are remote?
About 73% of market research analyst openings are fully remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting sustained flexibility in knowledge-worker roles across the field. Sub-areas like quantitative data analysis and report writing tend to have the highest remote availability, while roles involving in-person focus groups or ethnographic fieldwork are more likely to require on-site presence.
How do you become a market research analyst?
Start with a bachelor's degree in marketing, statistics, psychology, or a related social science, then build hands-on experience with survey design and data analysis software. Internships at research agencies, consumer goods companies, or marketing departments are the fastest path to a first role. From there, developing fluency in a statistical platform and building a portfolio of research projects will move you into mid-level positions.
Can you get a market research analyst job with little experience?
Yes, entry-level market research analyst roles exist specifically for candidates with limited professional experience, and employers in this field routinely hire based on demonstrated analytical skills rather than years on the job. Coursework in research methods, a capstone project involving primary data collection, or a short-term internship can substitute for full-time experience. Roles at research agencies and market intelligence firms tend to have the most structured entry-level pipelines.
What does the market research analyst interview process look like?
Most hiring processes for market research analyst roles include an initial recruiter or hiring manager screen, followed by a technical interview covering methodology, data interpretation, and tool proficiency. Many employers add a case study or take-home exercise where you analyze a dataset or design a research plan for a fictional business problem. Final rounds typically involve presenting your case findings to a panel and discussing how you translate research into recommendations.
Where can I find and apply to market research analyst jobs?
You can find and apply to market research analyst jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States in one place. Search for roles that match your experience, specialization, and preferred location, then apply directly to each listing without leaving the platform.
