Looking for interview participants

For the purpose of the research project HearMeOut, IHS is looking for employees who are willing to talk about their experiences with online meetings in the professional context.

The project team invites individuals who are employed in Vienna and familiar with participating in virtual conferences (e.g. via Zoom, MS Teams, Webex, Google Meet). How do you experience work-related communication in the digital space?

The study is funded by the Digifonds of the Vienna Chamber of Labor and conducted at the Institute for Advanced Studies (IHS). The interviews are carried out online in German or English. The data will be treated confidentially, stored anonymously, and used solely for the stated research purpose.

IHS kindly invites all persons who are interested in participation to send a message to hearmeout@ihs.ac.at. In order to be able to present diverse experiences and perceptions, the following information is needed in advance:

  • Age
  • Gender
  • Work sector
  • Current position within the employing organisation

For further questions or more detailed information, please do not hesitate to contact the research team (or refer to the project website).
