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

The qualifications that appear most often in market research jobs.

Tips for Your Market Research Job Search
Tailor your resume to methodology
Hiring managers scan for specific methods before reading anything else. Call out whether your experience is qualitative, quantitative, or mixed-methods in your summary line and match the language to each job posting rather than using a one-size-fits-all template.
Showcase tools and software explicitly
Market research roles screen hard on platforms like SPSS, Qualtrics, SurveyMonkey, and Tableau. List every tool you have used in a dedicated skills section, and name the specific analysis or reporting tasks you completed with each one.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists market research 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 vertical intentionally
Your experience in pharma market research reads differently to a CPG hiring manager. When targeting openings, prioritize industries where your previous study types, regulatory context, or audience segments overlap most closely with the employer's core business.
Prepare a research portfolio before interviewing
Many market research interviews include a case study or take-home project. Bring two or three anonymized examples of past deliverables, including the research question, methodology chosen, and the business decision your findings informed, so you can walk through them on request.
Negotiate scope alongside compensation
Market research roles vary widely in whether you design studies independently or execute briefs handed down from strategy teams. Before accepting an offer, confirm who owns the research design process, because that distinction shapes your growth trajectory and day-to-day autonomy more than title alone.
Market Research Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most market researchs?
The companies hiring the most market researchs 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. Consumer goods, healthcare, and technology firms consistently drive the bulk of demand.
How many market research jobs are remote?
About 72% of market research openings are fully remote or hybrid as of August 2026, making it one of the more flexible roles in the research and analytics space. Fully remote positions are most common in quantitative analysis, data synthesis, and report writing roles, while in-person or hybrid arrangements are more typical for positions that involve moderating focus groups or on-site consumer testing.
How do you become a market research?
Start with a bachelor's degree in a field that builds analytical and research skills, such as statistics, psychology, marketing, or sociology. Develop hands-on experience with survey platforms and statistical software through coursework, internships, or freelance projects. Build a portfolio of completed research projects that show how you translated data into decisions. Entry-level roles like research assistant or junior analyst are the most common starting points, and many professionals pursue certifications from recognized research industry associations to strengthen their credentials.
How do I get hired in market research with little experience?
Focus on building tangible research samples rather than relying on job titles alone. Run a small independent survey project, analyze publicly available consumer data, or volunteer to help a nonprofit with audience research. Emphasize transferable analytical skills from academic coursework, internships, or adjacent roles in data entry, customer service, or social media analytics. Many employers hiring for junior positions value demonstrated curiosity and methodology awareness over years of formal experience.
What does the market research interview process look like?
Most market research interviews follow a multi-stage process that begins with a recruiter screening call focused on your background and tool familiarity. A hiring manager interview typically follows, covering research methodology, past project examples, and how you communicate findings to non-research stakeholders. Many employers include a take-home case study or live exercise where you design a research approach for a sample business problem. Final rounds often involve meeting cross-functional team members from marketing, product, or strategy.
Where can I find and apply to market research jobs?
You can find and apply to market research jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers across the United States. Search the listings to find roles that match your experience level, methodology background, and preferred industry, then apply directly to each position that fits.
