Now Hiring Field Representatives

We are now hiring a limited number of temporary field representatives and supervisors across the country. Census Bureau field representatives serve an important role in completing our mission and help give a voice to their community.

Field representatives live in the local communities that they collect data for, enjoy flexible hours, receive paid training, and are reimbursed for mileage on their personally owned vehicles.

Here's How You Can Help

Recruit members of your community to apply to be a field representative! Your assistance helps connect your neighbors with jobs while also raising awareness of the important surveys the Census Bureau conducts each year. The Census Bureau is committed to recruiting a workforce that is representative of our nation.

Email Newsletter

Email newsletters can be an effective way to communicate with many members of your community at once to encourage them to apply for positions with the Census Bureau.

You can share our newsletter or you can start with the sample copy below and make it your own. Here are a few tips for writing an effective email newsletter:

  • Write an attention-grabbing subject line and keep it short.
  • Put the most important information first.
  • Feature a call to action that you want the reader to take.
  • Keep it short. People typically spend only seconds scanning an e-mail.
  • Use bold font, subheads, bullets, or other methods to clarify the key message, promote the call to action, and enable the reader to skim the e-mail.
