Eileen Murphy, head of Census Administration, said: “Given the strong levels of interest and our requirement to ensure we have adequate representation in every corner of the country, we are extending the deadline by a further week.

“This should provide anyone interested in applying with ample time to do so. We are particularly interested in receiving applications from anyone living in Cork, Dublin, Limerick and Waterford cities as well as parts of Donegal, Roscommon and Tipperary.

“The job of census enumerator is flexible, requiring approximately 22 hours per week, but with the ability to largely choose those hours. It can be a rewarding position and is an ideal option for people looking for temporary part time work.

“By becoming involved you will be directly helping the people of your local community by ensuring your community’s needs are accounted for in future policy decisions.
