U.S. Census to Create Over Half a Million Jobs in 2010
By sara | Dated: 02-19-2010
As we’ve been reporting the past few months, the U.S. Census has been hiring temporary workers throughout the United States to conduct surveys in the coming months. The Commerce Department released a study today which finds that the Census Bureau will add up to 635,000 temporary jobs by May. The report predicts that this hiring activity will cause the country’s unemployment rate to decrease by several tenths of a percentage point. Census spending is predicted to increase the nation’s gross domestic product by one tenth of a percentage point during the first quarter of the year and by two tenths of a percentage point during the second quarter.

Testimonial of the Week
What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.
