I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at US Postal Service (Aledo, TX) in Oct 2017
Interview
One hour going over details of the job and a few basic questions. Mostly making sure I understood the job functions and was up for it. Thus, if hired, there would be less likelihood of being shocked or overwhelmed and quitting.

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.
