**Your opportunity**:
Under the general supervision of the Principal Investigator (PI) and Lead Interviewer, **Field Interviewers** contact, schedule, and conduct online interviews with respondents to examine the intergenerational influence of children's family histories on their current work and family situations.

During the required training, Field Interviewers receive instruction on how to contact prospective participants to request participation in the TFSplus25 project, schedule interviews, and conduct the computer-assisted standardized interview. Training includes a focus on interviewing techniques, minimizing refusals, and safety issues.

- Discuss by phone or online with Lead Interviewer as necessary to review work issues in the field, performance, need of support for specific cases, and strategies for increasing and maintaining response rates.
