2020 Census Greater San Antonio Area is hiring

Hello everyone,

I am forwarding the following message from Decennial Partnership Branch U.S. Census Bureau in San Antonio:

As we prepare for a complete and accurate count of every living person in the upcoming 2020 Census, we will be hiring thousands of people from the very communities you serve, including Kerrville and New Braunfels.  We will be hiring management-type jobs, assistant manager positions, clerical, all the enumerators that knock on doors to make sure they respond to the census form and others.  All the websites where these job will be available are at the end of this message below.
 
To that end, there will be three Area Census Offices (ACOs) in San Antonio that will be hiring thousands of these positions in many counties around San Antonio. Take a moment and see if you are interested in applying and spread the word.
