Before hiring begins, the Census Bureau needs to assemble an applicant pool in the millions. For example, to support the 2010 Census, it recruited approximately 3.9 million job applicants in 2009 and 2010.
Not only are fewer people looking for work, but the demographic makeup of the workforce has changed considerably, requiring different recruiting strategies.
The emphasis will be on competitive and attractive pay rates as well as an easy application process. It will take 30 minutes or less to apply online compared to an average two-hour application process in 2010. Job offers will be contingent upon applicants passing a background check (including fingerprinting).
Hiring Strategies
Bilingual Applicants Needed
In some areas the Census Bureau will need applicants who are fluent in English and other languages. Finding qualified applicants can be a challenge.
The Census Bureau will team up with partners in communities where individuals with the necessary language skills live to find the right people to fill bilingual positions.
There is no better resource about America’s neighborhoods than the people already living in them. Working in order to ensure a complete and accurate 2020 census, the Census Bureau must successfully recruit a knowledgeable and dynamic workforce in communities across the United States.
