Applied for position on-line 1/31 , was scheduled for a Computer Based test within the week. Memory portion of test was the only difficult portion. ( Prior to testing, see if your library has Postal Exam Prep book...or search for examples on line.) You won't need all the allotted time to finish exam. You score will be available on-line immediately, once you return home.
I scored and 80.2, and did not think I would get called up at all. Received an email on 2/22 personally from the Manchester NH, Postmaster and was directed to schedule an interview with him for the following week.
Had interview on 2/28 with the Postmaster. It was more of a discussion on what is NOT acceptable at USPS... (which to me, was pretty much common sense). Racism, Sexual Harassment in any form, Absenteeism, Getting into arguments with customers etc. Warned that job involves working in all weather conditions, and that backing-up in their white trucks is highly discouraged, and initially, may be required to work 6 days a week.
He then described the remainder of the hiring process. (Drug screen & medical exam).
Assuming no anomalies with those items. I should receive email indicating if I will be hired or not...and that process could take up to another month. Warned to check email daily, as any non-response to scheduling the drug-screen or medical exam requests, will automatically eliminate me as a candidate.
Not really an interview, but a discussion of what is expected as a Carrier.
