User testing recruitment – social network style

June 20, 2008 · 1 Comment

How to recruit students for user testing at sussex university, the Stuart method.

 

1. go to facebook

2. look at a friend

3. look at their ‘Networks with the most friends’

4. click on the one called ’sussex.uni’ (if they have it) – this will show you all their friends that go to / have gone to or work at sussex uni

 

The most difficult bit is telling if you know or might have met the student from their tiny photo, but we got a really good response.

    Hello Stuart,

    I heard that you had gone over to Sussex on a research post. Congratulations.

    I’m abusing your comments list because I really want to talk to you about helping us recruit a student user group.

    louise at semantico.com or use my email above – hope things are going well.

    Lou Hewitt.
