Questions

What does a research specialist cost?

Guidance for education & career work is $75–$175 an hour. Admissions or career packages $500–$4k · curriculum projects $5k–$20k. Your brief gets an hours band and a budget check before anyone quotes.

Who answers a brief sent from ResearchSpecialist.com?

The first verified consultant in this practice. Listings go live only after identity and portfolio checks, so nobody unverified sees your brief.

Do I pay to send a brief?

No. Sending a brief is free for clients. Consultants pay a published brief fee to respond, or you can pay for an exclusive brief that goes to one consultant only.

How is this different from a freelance marketplace?

Briefs are scoped before they are priced, consultants keep their engagement fee, and every number on the site comes from recorded events.
