I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at US Postal Service (Detroit, MI) in Dec 2016
Interview
I applied on October 27th I got an email on November 4th to interview on November 9th. It was it was an individual interview but there was a lot of people interviewing. She explained I would basically be sorting mail and asked would I be able to come in to work early like between 2 and 3 am. On December 5th I received 3 emails saying congratulations you got the job you have 7 days to accept or decline, you have 2 days to fill out this online information for your background check, and you have 3 days to got take a drug test. I did all of that the next day and I didn't get an email from them until December 23 telling me my orientation/ first day of work will be December 27th. This was confusing because the holiday season was basically over. After orientation they couldn't get through to the office I was supposed to work at so I went up to the place the next day because I couldn't get through either. The manager called me later that day and said I start at 4 am. It turned out that I would be working at the Annex and not the store.
The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at US Postal Service
Interview
Group interview then one on one. Group consisted of about 30 people, about 10 people out of that group were hired. I was offered job at the interview. Was informed Job would be limited to 6 weeks, starting shortly before thanksgiving and staying through the first week of January.
For me, the Interview was very simple. It basically felt like they just wanted to know if there was any reason you couldn't see yourself doing the job and to be sure you weren't some kind of crazy person. This was for a temporary seasonal position though. I do not know if it would be different for a long term job.
Applied online, received an email for pre-employment and fingerprint. Now I am waiting for their job offer email once fingerprint clears. Was told should take about 2 weeks and job offer is for 6 weeks only. Night side hustle for the holidays.
