What is a census and why is it important?
Once a decade, America comes together to count every resident in the United States, creating national awareness of the importance of the census and its valuable statistics. The decennial census was first taken in 1790, as mandated by the Constitution. It counts our population and households, providing the basis for reapportioning congressional seats, redistricting, and distributing more than $675 billion in federal funds annually to support states, counties and communities’ vital programs — impacting housing, education, transportation, employment, health care and public policy.
The next census is coming in 2020. Counting an increasingly diverse and growing population is a massive undertaking. It requires years of planning and the support of thousands of people.
The positions are full time or part time with Flexible hours to meet your scheduling needs. No experience needed-paid training provided. Pay is $14-25 per hour/paid weekly. Must be a US Citizen and over the age of 18 to qualify.
It takes 20-30 minutes to apply online at https://2020census.gov/jobs
