I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at US Postal Service
Interview
I applied online. After about 3 weeks they called me for an interview. I took the test for the CCA position already so I didn't have to do it again. A couple days Before the interview I was sent a link to do a background check and a drug test. I passed both. So while in my interview they asked me to bring a drivers abstract and I had to fill out a lot of paperwork. They asked me general questions , have I ever worked outside, can I handle the weather, & and how am I conscientious? The postmasters conducting the interview were very nice. After the interview I was fingerprinted & told to keep checking my email. After about 2 weeks they emailed me to set up an appointment to do a medical background check. When I went in for that they said I passed and gave me my orientation date which was the upcoming weekend. I was officially hired that day.
