Successful Survey Interviewers may be asked to work on a number of different surveys which may include but not limited to the Labour Force Survey (LFS), the Survey of Income and Living Conditions (SILC), and the Household Budget Survey (HBS). The CSO are also recruiting through this campaign for interviewers to work on the new baby cohort of Growing Up in Ireland – the national longitudinal study of children in Ireland which has been following the progress of c.20,000 children and their families since 2006.

We have found that the best times to interview households tend to be between 4pm and 8pm, though this may vary depending on the area you are in. Households are willing to give up their free time to participate in our surveys and it is important that you are as flexible as possible to find a time that suits them to participate. Where will I be working? Your work assignments will be based on your home location and will branch out from there. You may need to travel further from home at times and the distance of the travel will depend on whether your location is urban or rural in nature.

Civil service mileage rates apply for any work-related travel in addition to other allowances which may be payable. What training will I receive?
