In less than a week, FieldworkHub screened in and booked 16 respondents to take part in a 30-minute phone interview with our client. We initially began by recruiting from our panel, and then turned to a free find approach to recruit the remaining candidates. Our client was very satisfied with the insights that they obtained through the interviews.
