It all depends upon your demographics and what they're looking for, and that includes, but is not limited to:  male/female, country of origin, date of birth, etc. and so on.  You can fail anywhere along the way if you don't match their demographics.  However, don't give up so easily.  I know it's frustrating at times, but you WILL qualify sooner or later.  Just keep on truckin'!

Survey companies have a target audience, and if you don't match every single factor, you're out!  I've even noticed that if you don't provide the response they want, aside from demographics, some surveys kick you out then.  In those cases, they don't want an honest answer; they actually want to provide biased responses.  For shame!!!!

You are not the only one...we all go thru that.  Sometimes I try and try and never qualify for anything.  Then suddenly I will.  Just have to keep on tryin.   :turkey:

Surveys are like life. Totally not fair.  :P Either deal with it or bail out. Your call.

Surveys are based on your profile such as your demographics. Just keep trying until you qualified for one.

Surveys are looking for certain demographics. Some are very broad( ex: people who grocery shop) and others are much more narrow( ex:those involved in technology purchasing decisions for a company with 500-1000 employees that earns more than a $1 million a year)

They are also looking for people who do (or are likely to) use/buy certain products/services. If it's a survey asking about specific components of a new product they really aren't going to want to continue the survey if you say you wouldn't buy it anyway.

This happens to everyone, they have there own specific demographics and if you you fit, you get disqualified; that has happened a lot with me the only time I am upset is when I have spent time taking it and then at the end they said quota is filled, I prefer to get disqualified in the beginning, that way I do not waste my or there time.

A lot of these surveys are just getting harder or dumber depending how you look at it. I guess you just have to do you best with them. ???
