2010 Census Jobs: Your Help isn’t Just Wanted, it’s Needed
Local Census Offices Seeking Applicants to Support U.S. Census Bureau's Goal of a Complete Count.

Preparations are underway at the U.S. Census Bureau to conduct the 2010 Census. Once every ten years
an effort is made to count every person living in the United States and its territories. In order to com-
plete this huge undertaking, the Census Bureau will be hiring hundreds of thousands of census takers in
support of peak census operations. If that seems like a lot, consider that those census takers, also
known as Enumerators, will be counting millions of people in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Isl-
ands, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa.

The Census Bureau is currently looking for friendly and outgoing people to conduct in-person interviews
with community residents who do not return their 2010 Census questionnaire. These temporary, part-
time positions offer good pay and flexible hours, and you will mostly work in your own community. It’s
probably the best temporary, part-time job to come along in 10 years!

You can access a practice test online @ www.2010censusjobs.gov

On the left is a green box with choices...click on the last one "Application Materials" and then on the
screen that comes up, the fourth selection is called: CENSUS PRACTICE TEST -- you can print it out and
take it that way or you can just print out the last page to write down your answers and just scroll thru
the test or just write your answers on any piece of paper...towards the end there is an answer key so
you can self-grade. It's supposed to be a timed test of 30 minutes.
