TEMPORARY INTERVIEWERS REQUIRED
£8.00 per hour.
The Centre for Social Policy Research and Development
requires interviewers for approximately 1-3 months from 17th
September 2001. Successful applicants will work closely with
the principal investigator and the project research
assistant in the collection of quantitative and qualitative
data from older people living in Gwynedd for a project
examining the housing needs and preferences of older people.
Interviewers will initially conduct a door-to-door census of
the designated areas in order to establish the age of
occupants. The second stage will involve in depth interviews
of 500 people aged 70 and over using a structured interview
schedule, and 50 qualitative interviews with a younger age
group (50-60).
Requirements:
The work is essentially full time, and it is important that
applicants are flexible as the work may involve some
weekends and evenings. Own transport is desirable, and the
ability to speak Welsh would be advantageous.
Personal Qualities:
The interviwer will need to have a positive mature
disposition, be self-motivated and patient with a keen sense
of observation. Good communication and listening skills are
essential, as is the ability to be reliable, polite,
courteous, and non-judgmental. An interest in sociology and
social policy is desirable.
