I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at US Postal Service (Denver, CO) in Mar 2013
Interview
Was invited to take the postal exam after applying online after about 3 weeks. I prepared very hard for the exam which took about 2 hours. It was lengthy and detailed. It was good that I had taken the time to prepare which served me well. I received a high score upper 80's. Within about 2 more weeks I received my packet in the mail and set up my interview date. It was with at least 100 other people.

I interviewed at US Postal Service (Arlington Heights, IL)
Interview
Pour, there was no interview. Everyone is welcome to apply for this”government ” job. I personally think that the whole process should be changed. Employees should be the face of this company.
There is no interview process. You just get selected, and have to pass a process for your background and fingerprints. After that you do a shadow day, to decided if thats a job you want to do.
