2010 Census is hiring workers to count noses

The U.S. Census Bureau is now recruiting temporary part-time census takers for the 2010 Census. The pay is good, the hours are flexible and the work is close to home. Conducting the census is a huge undertaking. Thousands of census takers are needed to update address lists and conduct interviews with community residents. Most positions require a valid driver's license and use of a vehicle. However, public transportation may be authorized in certain areas.

According to the Census Bureau, census taker jobs are excellent for retirees, college students, those who want to work part time or who are between jobs, or just about anyone who wants to earn extra money while performing an important community service. Pay is competitive and workers are reimbursed for authorized mileage and related expenses.
