How To Apply For United State 2020 Census Recruitment

In advance of the 2020 Census, the U.S. Census Bureau is recruiting hundreds of thousands of people for temporary jobs across the United States and Puerto Rico.

Job Descriptions:

• Census Takers
• Census Field Supervisors
• Recruiting Assistants
• Clerk
• Office Operations Supervisor

Job Qualifications:
To be eligible for a 2020 Census job, you must:

• Be at least 18 years old
• Have a valid Social Security number
• Be a U.S. citizen
• Have a valid email address
• Complete an application and answer assessment questions. (Some application questions are available in Spanish. However, an English proficiency test may also be required.)
• Be able to speak, read, and write in English, if applying in the 50 states or Washington, D.C. (Bilingual applicants are needed and are encouraged to apply.)
• Be registered with the Selective Service System or have a qualifying exemption, if you are a male born after December 31, 1959.
• Undergo fingerprinting and pass a criminal background check and a review of criminal records performed by the Census Bureau.
• Commit to completing training.
• Be available to work flexible hours, which can include days, evenings, and weekends.

Most jobs require employees to:

• Have a valid driver’s license and access to a vehicle, unless public transportation is readily available.
• Have access to a computer with internet and an email account (to complete training).

Applicants located in Puerto Rico:

• Have the option to complete the application in English or Spanish but will be required to complete the assessments in Spanish only.
• Will be required to take the English proficiency assessment, if applying for office and/or supervisory positions.
• If you are currently employed, your job must be compatible with Census Bureau employment and not create conflicts of interest. These will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Also, you must not engage in any partisan political activity while on duty.

Non-citizens may be hired in certain circumstances. Consistent with law, the Census Bureau will hire non-citizen translators as census takers who are legally entitled to work in the U.S. on an as-needed-basis during 2020 peak field operations, if there are no available citizens who can be hired with the necessary non-English language skills. Census Bureau recruiting and hiring systems will be updated consistent with this approach.

Job Benefits:

1.) Competitive Wages: Could you use extra income? Jobs for the 2020 Census offer competitive wages that are paid weekly. Authorized expenses, such as mileage, are reimbursed for employees doing field work.

2.) Support Your Community: Census results are used to determine your representation in Congress, and they help inform how billions of dollars are distributed for hospitals, schools, roads, and more. Help ensure that everyone in your community is counted in the 2020 Census.

3.) Fit Your Schedule: Temporary positions for the 2020 Census feature flexible hours—a perfect fit if you are looking to earn extra money, even if you already have other commitments.

4.) Be a Part of History: Every 10 years since 1790, the United States has undertaken the momentous task of counting its population. This is your chance to play a role
