I have got interested in this article because I am not sure that I believe it. I mean I don’t often meet people who set out to be a market researcher. It is a great job but most people seem to drift into it. The article suggests that it is a career choice. Mind you the same article suggests that being a physician assistant is also a career choice – in fact one notch above a market researcher. What does anyone else thing? Is there anyone out there who actually decided at school or uni that they wanted to be a market researcher and have actually become one?
