I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at US Postal Service (Omaha, NE) in Apr 2016
Interview
Hiring process has been a long one with what seems like no end. From online application, testing, 3 background checks, drug screen, and finally an interview. I had test score of 86.6 which the interviewer said was high but I thought was ok. I'm not military but it I was I could of added another 5 points to that score. I had a one on one interview which was quite unprofessional when she kept taking phone calls throughout the process. It has been two weeks since and I don't expect for a response even though I qualified for 33 positions because of my score and manager background.

Question 1
No questions were asked as there was not an interview process.
Not really an interview. If you pass the background check you have the job. The United States Postal Service does not require a traditional interview. Very easy. I love it here.
I applied online. I interviewed at US Postal Service (Spokane, WA)
Interview
There was no interview. I pretty much just took a test and they sent me back a conditional offer. When I got to my orientation with 3 other people they all had the same experience.
