The deadline to apply is 3pm on Friday 10 December.
Census Enumerators are required to deliver and collect census forms Kildare and other counties.
This will take place over a 10 week period from 28 February to 6 May 2022.
Those interested in the 219 part time positions in Kildare are urged to apply, without delay, on census.ie.
Following a late surge in interest, the Central Statistics Office (CSO) has extended the deadline for applications for Census Enumerators until 3pm on the 10 December.
Enumerators can earn up to €3,200 while also having the flexibility to choose their own hours.
The CSO is urging anyone available for part time work next spring to consider applying for one of these rewarding and enjoyable positions.
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.
"The job of Census Enumerator is highly 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.”
Applications can be made online at www.census.ie until the new deadline of 3pm on 10 December.
