Terrible! 3 day training a little more than that somet sometimes . You're on your own after that! Try to hang in there for a year and if you make it you'll understand what it's all about . not an easy Job.

Fairly decent driver training, but you should already be a good driver. Actual duty training is not very involved. You mostly get OJT. You don't case mail at first, just take out routes. Someone goes with you for a day or two, then you're on your own.

Job training is done to the best that they can. Long orientation about what it is to be a mail carrier and general knowledge. Then after completing 3 full days of that, there is driving training for the multiple types of vehicles you might use. Then there is on the job instructing where you shadow a carrier for 3 days.

They train you for a week and then you are expected to receive the rest of your training on the job. Only some locations/supervisors are good about giving you the time/resources to learn how things work.

not enough training to do the job, old workers you work with expect you to the job like a pro even on your first day
