U.S. Census Bureau - Ongoing Recruitment

Thank you for the posting about recruitment at the U.S. Census Bureau. I was a Field Enumerator in 2010 and I had heard that there were ongoing positions. I plan to apply because of my statistics and customer contact experience. If there is a positive development, I will let you know.
