Census Workers Needed

The Census Bureau is now accepting applications locally for temporary positions to being in the spring of 2010. Most people will be hired as Census Takers and are paid weekly. Each will receive paid training, excellent hourly wage and substantial mileage reimbursement.

The hours are flexible, offering both part and full time positions for up to eight weeks of employment, right here in Levy County. Applications are being accepted now.

For more information and to register for a local application time and date, call toll free 1-866-861-2010 as soon as possible. Application sites are set up throughout Levy County.
