What are Hot Topics?
Hot Topics are short questionnaires sent via email. Sometimes we need to contact you for a little bit more information to see if you are suitable for an upcoming project. Because these ‘Hot Topics’ usually consist of only a couple of questions that take just a few minutes to answer. We cannot reward you for them, but participating in them will increase your chances of being invites to future surveys.
