    First impressions last remember that when you decide what to wear

    If you get the job you will in effect be working for the Government, and the Government are not exactly popular at the moment, so watch out for possibility of backlash at the doorstep.

    You need maths just for reporting the progress you have made on number of forms delivered and collected. Basic addition only.Also dress could would be smart but not necessarily suit but def no jeans or runners

    cross tots are simply basic addition. you have to group your forms by area codes and total up number of people, number of females, number of males and then that has to match your overall total, that's all to it as far as i can remember

    Will I get a really good pension after it!!?

    I'm currently unemployed and want to do it for extra cash(so I can get my visa underway!) I assume I'd have to sign off while working for the census people?

    I know you'll have had your interview by now, but for anyone else - look at the other thread entitled 'Upcoming Jobs with the CSO for 2011'.
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056027937

    People have posted interview questions, tips on dress code etc.


    (Maybe the mods could merge the threads?)
