How it Works

Getting started with Flex + Recruit looks almost identical to getting started with a Flex Conversation. Click the blue plus button at the top right, select Flex + Recruit and start programming your Basic Details.

You can create your discussion guide in any of the available ways below. If you are a new user, we recommend the Word Document file method which is an easy way to convert your outline into a Remesh Conversation.

  1. In-Platform Discussion Guide Builder
  2. Premade or Custom Templates
  3. Uploading an Excel or Word Document File
  4. Paste in Text
  5. Duplicate, Translate or Import an Existing Discussion Guide

Please note that Onboarding Polls will be automatically generated based upon your recruitment criteria selected in the Remesh Recruit section, but you’re welcome to program additional Onboarding Polls as well.

Remesh Recruit

We recommend programming your discussion guide before designating your recruitment criteria. This will allow you to get a more accurate cost estimate, as it is partially based upon the length of your discussion guide.

As you adjust the fields listed below, your Recruit Cost Estimate, Cost Per Complete and Estimated Recruiting Time will automatically adjust based on the criteria.

  • Number of Completes: the number of Participants you want to take part in your Conversation.
  • Completion Time: this is an automated estimate based upon your programmed discussion guide.
  • Audience Criteria: You have the option to program from our list of demographic criteria, program your own custom criteria or a mix of both. Onboarding polls will appear in your discussion guide that align with what you programmed in these fields.

    • Standard Criteria: Here you can select from a list of demographic criteria that you would like your audience to meet. You can either browse our list of categories or use the search bar to search all attributes.
    • Custom Criteria: Input your own desired criteria by entering a poll question along with termination or must select logic.

Our on platform recruitment tool is meant to support recruitment that does not involve complex logic or criteria. Our system monitors your recruit after launch and if it forecasts that your recruitment may not be completed within a reasonable time frame we will put you in touch with our recruitment team who are well equipped to handle in-depth specialized recruitment.

  • The “Qualifying Active Participants” field will automatically populate based upon your criteria. We recommend that this number is at least 10x your “Number of Completes” for best feasibility.

Once you’ve adjusted these fields, review the Recruit Cost Estimate then click Review Your Recruit Order to proceed with ordering your recruit. Your Conversation will not be ready to begin collecting responses until you click Launch, but we recommend reviewing the following settings before launching your Conversation.

    This price includes all sample costs. This price is not inclusive of software costs, which are billed and priced separately. You can reach out to your Account Director for more information.

    Additional Settings

    • Display Logic: Utilize Display Logic to randomize sections of your discussion guide to decrease order bias.
    • Segments: Segments allow you to cut your data as you analyze based upon polls asked in your Remesh Conversation. You can create Segments before, during or after your Conversation, but we recommend programming a few Segments before Launching your Conversation.
    • Quotas: You can set quotas for certain recruitment criteria by clicking the "Add Quotas" button next to the audience recruitment criteria. You must first select audience recruitment criteria before this option becomes available. Quotas are available for standard or custom criteria, but can only set a quota on a single select poll.

    Please note we currently cannot support quotas based upon age.

    Launching Your Conversation

    Once you’re ready to begin collecting responses from participants, click the Launch button at the top right of your screen to Launch your Conversation and begin collecting Data!

    Monitoring Your Conversation

    Once your Conversation has launched, you can begin monitoring recruitment progress and data collected on the Summary and Live pages as well as download in progress CSV data outputs. Your Conversation will end automatically after the requested number of participants have completed the conversation  but you have the option to end it early if you’d like. Once your Conversation has ended you will have full access to all your data using our Post Conversation Analysis tools!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    • Why don’t I see Flex + Recruit in my workspace?
      This feature currently requires the Remesh team to turn on access for your workspace. If you have a current Remesh subscription, please reach out to your account team to learn more about gaining access. If you do not currently have a Remesh subscription please get in touch!
    • In what markets can you currently recruit using this feature?
      US and UK
    • What are the available audience criteria?
      We have dozens of audience criteria available which you can find more details about here. You are also able to program your own custom criteria as well.
    • How long does it take to fully recruit a Remesh Recruit Conversation?
      Most Remesh Recruit projects are completed within 3-4 business days, and often they will only take 1 business day. If there are any issues or concerns with your Remesh Recruit, we'll reach out to you within 24 hours of when you Launch the Conversation.
    • What happens if my Recruit is too complex?
      If less than 15% of participants meet your custom criteria, or if a Quota isn’t filling up enough to the point where it likely won’t fill up at all, the system will automatically stop the Recruit.
    • Will I be charged if my Recruit is too complex?
      No. If your Recruit is too complex, you’ll receive an email letting you know. You will not be charged for any of the participants in that conversation.
    • Is there a price difference between Standard and Custom Criteria?
      Yes. If your Flex+Recruit conversation only has Standard Criteria (or has no Audience Criteria at all), then you will just be charged a “Base cost per complete” based on your Completion Time. If your Flex+Recruit has any Custom Criteria, then you will also be charged a “Custom screening cost per complete”. This is an added fee to each participant complete to account for recruiting your custom audience requirements.
    • Is the price inclusive of incentive?
      Yes, the price displayed in the platform includes all sample costs. This price is not inclusive of software costs, which are billed and priced separately. You can reach out to your Account Director for more information.
