I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at US Postal Service (Tacoma, WA) in Aug 2008
Interview
The interview really just asks your physical capabilities and where you worked before. Must pass a physical and drug screen. Then you must be finger printed and sworn in. take about 3 weeks. You also must have a clean drivers license. I had to wait a month, which they were nice enough to hold my job because I had 2 speeding tickets and I needed one to fall off my driving record before being officially hired.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at US Postal Service (Chalfont, PA)
Interview
No real interview. You are selected based on a test score. Training and orientation take 5 days, which is also very, very easy. From there, it’s a few days of on the job training, and you start delivering mail on your own.
I applied online. I interviewed at US Postal Service (Charleston, SC)
Interview
If you like to work, have no life and money. It's for you. Eventually you'll become Regular (2.5 to 3 Years, depending on your area) and have the post offices full benefits. The thrift saving plan pays 5% matched when you open it. Warning: You will have to deal with management that does not care about you and will force you to do things you shouldn't have to do. You will also be working 60 plus hours a week, sometimes 7 days a week but ALWAYS 6 days a week. So get your rest.
