The U.S. Bureau of the Census contracted with ICF International to conduct job analyses to determine how 25 field operations jobs, held by more than 500,000 workers, have changed.
The ICF team conducted job observations and job analysis workshops for 25 jobs across multiple Census test sites. Additionally, ICF conducted a study to determine changes that have occurred in the clustering of the job classes and to restructure the job classes as needed.
Based on the results of the job analysis, the ICF team revised the selection system, developed measures of the cognitive aspects of the jobs, and included personality measures to assess the noncognitive aspects of the jobs. A criterion-related validity study was conducted and evidence demonstrating the validity of the selection system was documented.
