Facts
as of Nov 15, 2026
Apex Focus Group is a referral website that connects people with paid focus groups, online surveys, product tests and clinical trials run by independent market research firms, earning referral fees rather than running or paying for studies itself. The site says it lists more than 1,000 research opportunities and has over 1.9 million participants across all 50 US states, but it does not publish an address, owner or founding date. Its job postings are not conventional jobs but invitations to join remote consumer research panels, framed for people searching for data entry, customer service, call center, receptionist or administrative assistant work.
It is hiring: 252 open roles, 0 of them posted in the last 30 days.
