I applied online. I interviewed at US Postal Service (Bakersfield, CA) in Apr 2015
Interview
It was about ten of us in a conference room, there were three interviewers, after the interview we had our fingerprints taken and we filled out our w2 forms. Four days later I received the email to take the drug test and to start the process on the background check. Now I'm just waiting on my e-mails to see what is next .

Question 1
No questions were asked as there was not an interview process.
Not really an interview. If you pass the background check you have the job. The United States Postal Service does not require a traditional interview. Very easy. I love it here.
I applied online. I interviewed at US Postal Service (Spokane, WA)
Interview
There was no interview. I pretty much just took a test and they sent me back a conditional offer. When I got to my orientation with 3 other people they all had the same experience.
