About this job

Headway Workforce Solutions, in partnership with RTI, is seeking Part-Time Data Collectors to work in teams of 3-4 for the Research and Evaluation Survey for the Public Education Campaign on Tobacco among LGBT (RESPECT LGBT). This is an important research study, sponsored by The Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Tobacco Products (CTP).

RESPECT will evaluate the effectiveness of media campaigns in local bars and nightclubs designed to reduce tobacco use among young adults, ages 18-24 within the LGBT network. Data Collectors (DC) will work with their team to help bar patrons complete a short screening using a hand-held tablet. The DC will also recruit other venues in the area with a predominately LGBT clientele. We will be successful on this project if you have a crucial knowledge of these establishments.

Position Type and Duration

This is a short-term, part time job that will last approximately two weeks. Successful data collectors will have flexible schedules with availability to work 5 nights a week, including weekends from 9pm – 2am.

What is expected of you:
  • Have a valid ID that can be used to verify legal age (at least 21 years of age) to enter the bars.
  • Live within 50 miles of the study area.
  • Work during the late evening and nighttime hours on weekdays and weekends.
  • Have a valid driver's license and access to a personal vehicle.
  • Document and navigate through a tablet.
  • Maintain confidentiality at all times.
  • Have access to wifi.
  • Understand that you will be working in busy and loud establishments for extended periods of time.
  • Have extensive knowledge of the LGBT community and the local bars and nightclubs that cater to this lifestyle.
  • Adapt to and feel at ease in various social environments and areas.
  • Maintain a flexible schedule during bar recruitment and the screening period
  • Confidently approach and speak to strangers and effectively explain the importance of this study.
  • Meticulously account for incentive money paid out to respondents and request additional funds as needed to continue screenings.
