At each committee meeting there is an announcement made by either Foreman or Chasey (I don't remember which one) that the US Census is looking for workers and a phone number is given.
I actually applied to work for the census, took the test, obtained a decent score (23 right out of 28 with 10 right required to pass), but now, several weeks later, I have heard nothing from the census people. I was just curious as to whether any one else reading this blog applied and if they were hired.
I am thinking that either they had already hired the required workers by the time that I took the test, or that possibly there might be age discrimination involved as I am 69.

I tried to book a meeting room at several branches of the Atlantic County library in February. Most of the rooms were unavailable, because they were booked for U.S. census workers.
My reply is a little off topic, but I hope that helps.
According to this link:

The hiring takes place between February through May 2009 for the 2010 census. There is also a regional site found here that lists local jobs:

I would think they would prefer retired people to work for them, as it's a temporary type job and older adults would take the job more seriously.
