2010 Census Work: Serve Your Community

Redmond Applicants Needed to Support U.S. Census Goal of a Complete Count
 
The U.S. Census Bureau needs to hire temporary workers to ensure the 2010 Census is a success.  Redmond needs more applicants.  The goal is to make a complete and accurate count of each person residing in the United States. 
 
There are a variety of temporary jobs, but the greatest need is for Enumerators to conduct in-person interviews with community residents who do not return census questionnaires.  Enumerators (also known as census takers) work a flexible schedule and are paid $17.50 per hour.  Census takers receive paid training and reimbursement for mileage. 
 
Short-term 2010 Census jobs are ideal for retirees, college students, recent graduates, stay-at-home parents, and others seeking temporary, part-time work.  Applicants must be at least 18 years old.  Preference is given to U.S. citizens, however, non-citizens will be hired if not enough U.S. citizens are available.
 
For more information on working for the Census, go to  www.2010censusjobs.gov .  Applicants need to attend an application/testing session.  To choose one of various sessions held on the Eastside, call 425-749-5111.
