Census takers and support personnel are needed to help ensure an accurate census count. Census takers will be needed to work a minimum of 20 hours a week for several weeks. Interested individuals must be 18 years or older and pass a basic skills test. Applicants must provide two forms of identification to take the test, preferably a social security card or a passport and another form of photo identification. All appropriate training will be provided and authorized travel expenses will be covered.
Pay scales are competitive.
People who answer the census help their communities obtain this funding for roads, schools, health care, job training and other community services. Completed census forms are the best way to ensure your community is properly represented. All information obtained is kept strictly confidential. By law, the Census Bureau cannot share individual answers it receives with others, including welfare agencies, the Immigration and Naturalization Service, the Internal Revenue Service, courts, police, and the military. Testing will be conducted at various sites throughout the county through May, 2000.
