2010 Census begins testing to fill jobs statewide

The U.S. Census Bureau has begun its second round of Census applicant testing across the State of Vermont.  The Census Bureau is looking for qualified applicants to fill hundreds of temporary positions beginning in the spring of 2010; the first step in the application process is the completion of an entrance exam.

Successful applicants will conduct face-to-face interviews with Vermonters who fail to return their Census questionnaires by mail. The jobs are temporary; some are full time and others part time.  Census jobs offer flexible schedules and allow close-to-home employment.  Field operations pay starts at $13.50 per hour and varies by job.

Those interested in applying for these jobs should go to www.2010censusjobs.gov for job descriptions, qualifications and applications.  Potential applicants also can call toll free 1-866-861-2010.  Applicants must be U.S. citizens, age 18 and older, pass a background check and   basic aptitude test.  Most jobs require a valid driver’s license and use of a reliable vehicle.

In addition to the allocation of congressional seats, census results are used to determine the shape of legislative districts and local government districts, and how $400 billion in federal funds are distributed annually to communities across the country.

For more information on the Census or to sign up to take a test in Vermont please call 802-264-0860
