The U.S. Census Bureau is Hiring

Posted on 02/04/20 by Cindy Campbell

By working for the Census Bureau, you can help them reach their goal to ensure everyone is counted. Census counts have a huge impact on our communities. The 2020 Census data will be used to determine how more than $675 billion from more than 100 federally funded programs are distributed to states and localities, including communities like ours. The data influence choices made about which roads are fixed, where schools are built and businesses opened, what medical services are offered, and more.

All 2020 Census jobs are temporary. The largest number of positions available are for census takers. Pay rates vary by area.

If you’re interested, please visit the Census Bureau job site to apply. You’ll also be able to see descriptions and frequently asked questions.
