Central Survey Unit

Zola.

Anyone heard of these guys ? Some randomer called at the house and tried to let himself in without being asked and wouldnt go away for ages.....I was out at the time and it has freaked OH out ....and it has annoyed me.

They claim to do statistics for government health...

Well, the organisation is real

But it doesn't sound like they turn up without permission.
Could be a faker.

Central Survey Unit (which is part of the Northern Ireland Statistics and Research Agency) would usually send a letter to your house beforehand to notify that the household had been selected for a survey. Perhaps the letter has not been delivered in this instance.

We did get a letter in a couple weeks before, but assumed it was junk and binned it. The git was very insistent on coming back and wouldn't !!!!!! off.

Wish I was there to handle it!

I did see these posts advertised a while back. These are non civil servants who are on a temporary contract of sorts to conduct the survey interviews on behalf of NISRA.

I doubt they are on performance based pay, but that is a possibility. It would certainly explain his persistence?

Sorry to resurrect this thread, but seemed easier than starting a new one.

NISRA are recruiting interviewers at the moment if anyone is interested. See NICS Recruitment website for details.
