      Rural Carrier Associate Interview

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at US Postal Service

      Interview

      As soon as I walked in she shook my hand and smiled at me. Then she took me back into their (very) small processing room to show me where the position she was hiring for would be working when sorting mail for the route. Then we sat down and she told me all of the requirements of the job (lifting 70lbs, memorizing routes) and talked about the new health insurance program for RCAs. Then she asked me if I still wanted to be interviewed. I told her yes. Then we had more of a quick Q&A session rather than an interview. Super easy. 6/14 Applied and received invitation for personality assessment. 6/15 Took personality assessment and received invitation for 473 in-person exam. 6/18 Took 473 exam (THIS EXAM IS NOW TAKEN ON A COMPUTER, NOT ON PAPER!!) and got results emailed to me as soon as I left the office. I got an 84.4. 6/27 Got an email from the postmaster at the post office I applied for inviting me for a 30 minute interview. 6/29 Went to one on one interview which lasted only 30 minutes. Got a call about 1.5 hours later with a job offer. 6/30 Got an email inviting me to take drug test and submit info for DMV, credit report, and background check. 7/1 Scheduled drug test at local Walmart Clinic. Can report anytime from 7/1 to 7/7. Hope this helps!!!

      Application

      I interviewed at US Postal Service

      Interview

      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.

      Application

      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.
