Interviewed Aug 2010 (took a day)
I applied online in the middle of the night. The next day I received a call asking if i could come in for an interview. The interview was for 5AM. This position is a graveyard shift, so the time was not that unusual. No drug test or other type of test. Just asked if I had driven a forklift before and if I could lift 100 lbs. Started 2 days later.

Ups truckload uses a staffing service in order to bypass the union and any ups perks or stock options.It actualy costs more to do this but if they loose a run they can just let you go instead of finding a place for you to.work within the company.

Interviewed Jul 2010 in San Diego, CA (took 1 week)
I applied for a part-time package handler position online. After completing the application I was invited to choose a day for an appointment to tour the facility. The tour consisted of a brief overview of the job requirements along with around 30 other applicants which lasted approximately half an hour. After the tour each applicant was given a brief 1:1 interview. I was told I would be called if I were to be considered for this position.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Kansas City, KS (took 1+ week)
I received a call from the sales manager in St Louis. He wanted me to meet him the next day at 8 AM at the terminal. The next morning, I received a call at 6:30 AM saying he needed to reschedule for later that day.
I had to re-arrange my schedule to accomodate his last minute change. I arrived for my interview a few minutes early and waited 10-15 minutes for the SM to greet me. The terminal was a typical place to work. The sales manager was not what I expected. Their culture seems very corporate and rigid but their professionalism was lacking. I expected he would be wearing a suit or tie but he had on a pair of slacks and a UPS Freight button down shirt. He asked a little about me and my experience and asked a few typical interview questions, then told me he was looking for someone with "sales" experience. At that point I knew I was not what he was looking for. However, he proceeded to tell me a little about the job including several dinners and lunches per week on top of visiting clients each day. You get a company car, computer, and phone and train for 2 weeks in Virginia. I interviewed on a Wednesday afternoon and waited 9 days until I received an email on Friday at 6 PM saying I was not selected for the second round of interviews.

Interviewed Mar 2010 (took 1 week)
Within a week after the online application I received a phone call from the interviewer requesting a phone interview. The phone interview was more or less just basic questions about my resume and what I was looking for etc. and more indepth information about the position and what it entailed.
Immediately after the phone interview she requested a 1:1 interview the next week with several options on times and day.
She mentioned the 1:1 Interview would take approximately 30 - 45 minutes and she was right on time, stayed on track. The interviewer was great made me feel at ease and the interview went smoothly. She went over more of the company policies and what you could expect from the job.
The job ended up being more part time than not. No opportunity for advancement at this position. If you are looking for something part time it would be a great job.

Interviewed Mar 2010 (took 3 weeks)
Went to first interview, typical stuff with a tour of the facility's.
Called back to meet with regional manager, short and sweet.
Was down to me and one other person.
Called back a third time to meet with plant manager, seemed to go very well.
Offer made to other person, because they had a job while I was laid off.
Makes no sense but there you have it.
