I applied online. I interviewed at US Census Bureau (Corona, CA) in Apr 2012
Interview
Apply online, application in service with all aspects of the hiring process present and the opportunity to be employed on the spot. The entire process was pleasantly complete with set goals and implementation of the goals.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you think that you would enjoy working for the Census Bureau?
Long process but considering the number of applicants it should be expected It was a phone interview and was not difficult at all they seem to want to be certain the candidates like people and are able to onock on doors
The interview looks more at checking certain boxes as opposed to skill. It looks like this is a constantly vacant position. The position is part-time with no guaranteed hours. Cannot say that it's a difficult job or anything, but the application was tedious than the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
It was more of a description of the job and whether I was still interested.
After an online application they called with a simple telephone interview. They want to know about your availability and preferred schedule. They ask for basic background information. The online application has all of the information that they really need to place you so it is mostly a verification of the information you have already provided.
