There are still jobs available with the Census Bureau for the 2010 Census. If you are unemployed, underemployed, a student of just bored, you need to check in to this. The Census is important and the money is not bad! With the unemployment rate in most areas of North Carolina, I can't imagine these positions remaining unfilled.
Managers,
Despite the high unemployment level in North Carolina, the Census Bureau is having trouble meeting their hiring quotas in 39 counties across the state (see the list at the bottom of this message). The Census needs your help getting the word out that these jobs are available. Getting an accurate Census count is essential for ensuring that the State gets its fair share of population-based Federal funding for programs like the Community Development Block Grant, and so that local sales taxes, beer and wine taxes, and other State collected revenues are distributed correctly. The qualifications required for a temporary Census job are listed below.
Please forward this information to the appropriate offices within your government and community organizations that could direct potential applicants to these jobs. Thank you for your help.
