Interviewer jobs in Fort Myers, FL

Westat is currently seeking motivated and detail-oriented individuals to work as Field Interviewers for the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS). MEPS is a study of health care costs and usage in the United States, sponsored by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), a part of the Department of Health and Human Services. MEPS is a panel survey, which features several rounds of interviewing the same respondents to collect information for two full calendar years. Field Interviewers (FIs) conduct in-person and computer-assisted video interviews with adult members of households, drawn from a nationally representative sample, using a Westat-provided laptop computer. FIs are responsible for contacting the households in-person and/or by phone to gain cooperation, setting appointments, completing the interview, and collecting and following up with electronic and hard-copy signed documents. Traveling to the MEPS in-person training in January 2026 is a mandatory job requirement. In addition, FIs may be required to travel to local, and, at times, long-distance households, with some assignments requiring overnight travel. This is a part-time position that runs yearly, with two data collection periods. One period runs from January through mid-July, and the other from late July through early December. Start and stop dates vary with caseloads; however, all data collectors will have a break between rounds, during which time there is no work. Between the spring and fall rounds, the break is typically 1-2 weeks; between the fall and spring rounds, it is approximately a month. Field Interviewers report to a field supervisor and complete and submit administrative paperwork. On days when Field Interviewers work, they will be expected to transmit electronic data daily. FIs must comply with all required data security and confidentiality requirements. Interested in more information about MEPS? Click here.

Westat is currently seeking motivated and detail-oriented individuals to work as Field Interviewers for the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS). MEPS is a study of health care costs and usage in the United States, sponsored by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), a part of the Department of Health and Human Services. MEPS is a panel survey, which features several rounds of interviewing the same respondents to collect information for two full calendar years. Field Interviewers (FIs) conduct in-person and computer-assisted video interviews with adult members of households, drawn from a nationally representative sample, using a Westat-provided laptop computer. FIs are responsible for contacting the households in-person and/or by phone to gain cooperation, setting appointments, completing the interview, and collecting and following up with electronic and hard-copy signed documents. Traveling to the MEPS in-person training in January 2026 is a mandatory job requirement. In addition, FIs may be required to travel to local, and, at times, long-distance households, with some assignments requiring overnight travel. This is a part-time position that runs yearly, with two data collection periods. One period runs from January through mid-July, and the other from late July through early December. Start and stop dates vary with caseloads; however, all data collectors will have a break between rounds, during which time there is no work. Between the spring and fall rounds, the break is typically 1-2 weeks; between the fall and spring rounds, it is approximately a month. Field Interviewers report to a field supervisor and complete and submit administrative paperwork. On days when Field Interviewers work, they will be expected to transmit electronic data daily. FIs must comply with all required data security and confidentiality requirements. Interested in more information about MEPS? Click here.

MEPS is a panel survey, which features several rounds of interviewing the same respondents to collect information for two full calendar years. Field Interviewers (FIs) conduct in-person and computer-assisted video interviews with adult members of households, drawn from a nationally representative sample, using a Westat-provided laptop computer. FIs are responsible for contacting the households in-person and/or by phone to gain cooperation, setting appointments, completing the interview, and collecting and following up with electronic and hard-copy signed documents. Traveling to the MEPS in-person training in January 2026 is a mandatory job requirement. In addition, FIs may be required to travel to local, and, at times, long-distance households, with some assignments requiring overnight travel. This is a part-time position that runs yearly, with two data collection periods. One period runs from January through mid-July, and the other from late July through early December. Start and stop dates vary with caseloads; however, all data collectors will have a break between rounds, during which time there is no work. Between the spring and fall rounds, the break is typically 1-2 weeks; between the fall and spring rounds, it is approximately a month. Field Interviewers report to a field supervisor and complete and submit administrative paperwork. On days when Field Interviewers work, they will be expected to transmit electronic data daily. FIs must comply with all required data security and confidentiality requirements. Interested in more information about MEPS? Click here.
