$18 an hour. Heck, I may just apply for that.
Hi Tracee! Thank you for visiting Interview Chatter today. I am glad this post was helpful. Please feel free to stop and let me know whether you actually applied for the position and whether you took the opportunity. I look forward to hearing from you again.
1.2 million people. That is a large number and I am certain could provide or offset the income lost by families during the turndown. Thanks for the insight, I am certain most people did not know this was out there.
This was a great find for me. I do believe that people who really need an opportunity can get their foot in the door. I hope that those who need a job will apply. It may not be a dream job, but $18.00 per hour will feed a family.

the memory? iwas an insurance agent but

Hi Lucy,
Thank you for visiting Interview Chatter this morning. I do not have material on the test. However, my recommendation is that you check with your local library. They may having information about the test that will assist you with your preparation. Please come back and share your success story!

I took the census test on Dec 19th, I called to find out my score and was told that people who took the test on this date will not be called in until about two months. I was not able to receive my score. I live in new york.
i took the test in January and 2 weeks ago received a call that I was hired. Great news for me. Go to the Census website for a copy of the sample test. It was very helpful and helped me get a good score on the test.
Hi Jean!! Thank you so much for coming back and sharing your success!! I would love to hear how your job as a Census taker goes! Congratulations!!
