When building a screener or Express mission, you now have the ability to launch them after a Research Advisor has approved your design. We recognize that researchers have unique project considerations & timelines, so this feature will empower you to launch your dscout screeners and Express missions when it makes sense for you to do so.
Screeners
Submitting Your Screener For Review
Once you have created your screener and mission, click the "Submit for Review" button in the bottom right corner of the screener. You’ll be asked to share a few key project details with your Research Advisory team to set all parties up for success. We'll also ask for your intended screener launch date, which must be at least 1 business day from today's date. We cannot guarantee a faster review cycle when less than 2 business days is requested.
Your Research Advisor will review your project and provide feedback within two business days. After you make adjustments based on your Research Advisor's feedback, they'll approve your screener. After your screener has been approved, you’ll receive an email notification and the ‘Launch’ button will be unlocked for you.
Launching Your Screener
When you’re ready to launch your screener, you’ll be able click the green ‘Launch Screener’ button in the bottom right corner of the screener Setup page. It’s not possible to edit screeners post-launch, so don’t forget to give your screener a final glance to ensure that everything is shipshape!
After you’ve launched your screener, potentially eligible scouts will begin applying to your mission. Depending on your recruiting criteria, hundreds of applications may roll into the platform within a few days! You’ll be able to sort through applications and select the scouts who will be the best fit for your project – more on that process in viewing applications and selecting scouts.
Express
Submitting your Express Mission for review
Once you have created your Express mission, click the "Review and Launch" button in the top right corner of the Create tab.
If this is your first Express mission, you’ll be asked to share a few key project details with your Research Advisory team to set all parties up for success. We'll also ask for your intended mission launch date, which must be at least 1 business day from today's date. We cannot guarantee a faster review cycle when less than 2 business days is requested.
Your Research Advisor will review your project and provide feedback within two business days. After you make adjustments based on your Research Advisor's feedback, they'll approve your Express mission. After your mission has been approved, you’ll receive an email notification and the ‘Launch’ button will be unlocked for you.
Some users may be able to launch an Express mission without a review from a Research Advisor. Please speak with your Lead Research Advisor or Account Manager if you have any questions.
If you skip a review, please make sure to check for the following:
- Your mission adheres to the dscout panel experience standards
- Your account has adequate incentives and activity credits to fund the project
- You have referenced the Express Mission Checklist to ensure there are no errors in your mission.
Launching Your Express Mission
When you’re ready to launch your Express mission, you’ll be able click the green ‘Launch Mission’ button in the top right corner of the Create tab. It’s not possible to edit missions post-launch, so don’t forget to give your mission a final glance to ensure that everything is shipshape!
After you’ve launched your Express mission, scouts from the dscout scout pool will be able to begin to apply. Any scout who makes it through your knockout questions will move directly into the mission from there.
