Insight Global is seeking detail-oriented and motivated Research Assistants to support a major national research initiative focused on collecting and recording data related to youth physical development. These temporary, full-time positions are based onsite in Columbus, OH and Austin, TX, with durations ranging from 3 to 6 months, depending on location. While travel to other sites is not required, it is preferred for candidates seeking extended involvement.
