Census Code Wizard

General Information

The Census Code Wizard helps automate the process of assigning census codes to the jobs. The job code, job name, and EEO code of the job is shown at the top of the grid for reference only and can not be edited. The census code and title currently assigned to the job, if any, is also displayed. All 487 available census codes are listed in order of relevance to the job in question based on the job title and EEO category. Census codes previously assigned to this job are listed first. SOC Codes and descriptions related to the subject census code and sample job titles are displayed at the right. There is a search field at the bottom of the window in which the user can type keywords that describe the job to find the census code that matches best. Less is more with the search. If your search is too specific you may not get any results. The Census Code Wizard can be accessed by clicking the Search icon to the right of the census code field, by selecting the Census Wizard option from the Tools button, or by clicking the Census Code Wizard icon.
