Interview
Received an email explaining the job and if I was interested, to call and schedule an interview. Interview came and the postmaster showed me around the place and went over the job details and requirements. He asked about 10 interview questions that were very basic and asked my availability. Interview lasted about 30 minutes. Was very easy and pleasant.

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.
