To qualify for U.S. Census employment, an applicant must be at least 18 years old and a high school or ged graduate, must have a Social Security number, must submit to the Federal Bureau of Investigation fingerprint screening, pass a written test of basic skills and must have a valid driver’s license as this is necessary for most field jobs.
