Upcoming Census Bureau recruitment events in King and Snohomish Counties, pays $16–$23/hr

January 11, 2020 By Northwest Asian Weekly

The U.S. Census Bureau is now recruiting hundreds of temporary Census Takers in Washington in advance of its Nonresponse Follow-up Operation for the 2020 Census. The pay rate is $16–23 per hour.

The primary purpose of the Nonresponse Follow-up Operation is to count people in person at housing units who have not self-responded to the decennial census questionnaire. Census Takers visit and enumerate those households.

The decennial count influences how more than $675 billion from more than 100 federal programs are distributed to states and localities each year.

This temporary position is a good fit for students (aged 18 and older), retirees, holiday seasonal workers, and gig workers.

Recruiting events in King and Snohomish Counties

Recruiters and staff from the Seattle and Everett Area Census Offices will help people apply for Census jobs and answer questions about the process at multiple locations in Snohomish County and King County on Jan. 10 and 11.

There will also be staff to explain how people can keep their current jobs and work for the Census and to talk about the importance of the 2020 Census and what participation means and the returns it can bring to people in their communities. The local recruiting events will be at the following locations:
