2010 CENSUS JOBS IN LORAIN COUNTY

Lorain County Community Action Agency is pleased to be part of the 2010 Census Team.  We have made arrangements with the U.S. Census Bureau to be a test site for Census Job testing at our state-of- the-art Community Learning & Technology Center located at 506 Broadway, 3rd floor, in Lorain.

The U.S. Census Bureau is recruiting temporary, part-time census takers for the 2010 Census. These short-term jobs offer good pay, flexible hours, paid training, and reimbursement for authorized work-related expenses, such as mileage incurred while conducting census work. Best of all, census takers work right in their own communities.

Census taker jobs are excellent for people who want to work part-time, those who are between jobs, or just about anyone who wants to earn extra money while performing an important service for their community.

Bilingual speakers are encouraged to apply

All census takers must be able to speak English, but people who have bilingual skills are needed in communities where a large number of residents primarily speak other languages. If you have the appropriate language skills and cultural knowledge to communicate well in your community, we encourage you to apply.

  Please Note: The pay does not impact any government assistance you may currently receive nor does it disqualify you from receiving government assistance.

            While you do not have to have a high school diploma, there are other qualifications to be a census taker. You may qualify if:

§  You are a U.S. citizen;

§  You are a legal permanent resident, have an appropriate work visa, and you possess a bilingual skill;

§  You are at least 18 years of age;

§  You have a valid Social Security number;

§  You have a valid driver’s license;

§  You pass a background check;

§  You commit to four days of training (you will be paid).
