The Postal Service recently implemented their new
eCareer online recruiting
process. Entrance tests are still required for most jobs; however, you now apply
online for post office job vacancies and complete an initial assessment when you
apply. Applicants now take proctored exams at designated testing facilities on
computers instead of lengthy written tests that were previously used.
This site, along with our Post Office Jobs
study guide, features the many changes in the Postal Service's
recruiting programs.

Employment
Update
The Postal Service is offering early retirements to
150,000 postal workers and according to Greg Fry, USPS Spokesperson, there is
currently a hiring freeze for career positions
except for electronics technicians and various
mechanics. Certain critical vacancies will also be filled. The
Postal Service is recruiting for non-career Casual,
Temporary Relief, Transitional and Rural Carrier positions on an as needed
basis. The starting pay is from $9 to $20 an hour and a recent
online search found many non-career openings nationwide. These
positions are a good way to get your foot in the door and they don't require
a written entrance exam.
If you are hired for a non-career appointment you will have a better chance
of landing a career position after the reorganization. Temporary
appointments typically run from 89 to 359 days with additional appointments
possible depending on the position type.
The federal government continues to hire during this recession. Visit
http://federaljobs.net to explore related
entry level government jobs. The federal government has over 18,000 job
vacancies listed on just one of the
141 federal agency web sites listed on
http://federaljobs.net. You should also explore
related private sector jobs
to expand you options.
Explore all available Post Office jobs including corporate positions that
don't require entrance exams.
Corporate positions are available in many occupations including general
business, accounting, engineering, science, and most private sector occupations.
