I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at US Postal Service (Los Angeles, CA) in Jan 2018
Interview
It's a cattle call but pretty easy and the questions they ask you relate to the job description. For example, you will be asked to carry a heavy bag of mail up some stairs as well as if you are willing to work weekends, overtime, and odd hours. You are asked if you are responsible and can commit to working one year. After the interview you will have to take a drug test and complete some other online tests as well as go to a testing site to take an hour long memorization test. This test is easy but requires that you have a decent ability to memorize a range of address on a chart and then have that chart taken away from you. This is similar to what you will have to do on the job but it's a pretty useless way to judge if you're fit for the job and also fouls up and convolutes the hiring process which takes an average of three months, even as they are in dire need of fresh blood.
Straight forward explanation of the role requirements and question as to whether the role interests you. You’re given a chance to ask any questions you have about the role and compensation.

No inter view all online. The application very easy to complete and instant job offer. Easiest job I have ever applied to. Going through the background check process currently now
Easy I just sat down with the post master and we talked for 20 minutes. Not many questions where asked besides why I wanted to work for the post office.
