It varies from facility to facility, and from area to area. Some people has stated they were hired in as little as 3 1/2 months. Others, like myself took much longer. I took the test and got on the hiring register. That process took maybe 4 months to do by itself. After that and almost a year and a half went by, a position opened for an ET. The process started for my hiring in July of one year, and I didn't actually get hired until May of the following year. I was the only person on the register, so it wasn't slowed down by trying to decide which candidate to hire, since there was only one.

/m820 postal shifts are;

tour one 11 pm to 7:30 am.
tour two 7 am to 3:30 pm.
tour three 3 pm to 11:30 pm.

the above is NOT in stone. some offices have a Little different schedule by one or two hours either way.

new people almost always start on tour one.

I have over 36 postal years and I am currently in maintenance 10 years.

/m810 HR called me back today, said there had been no progress on the ET applications. I guess we are luck in OKC with at least one decent HR person.

Can you help me find out about all of the benifits at the USPS? I was told that there were three shifts.
1) what are they, 2) which one would I be on as the "new guy", 3) how long would I before I would get off the graveyard shift? What position do you hold at the USPS?

go here and find the correct page. are you sure it is PS-11? most likely it is PS-10 page 8. you will start out at step "D". you will suck dust on the grave yard shift and respond to downed machines.

I passed the test, passed the drug test, did great at the interview, and soon I will be going to the medical exam. As a PS-11 what can I expect to get paid per hour if offered a job? What else can I expect at work?

m808 The MPE 933 test starts with your ability to hear, understand and follow oral instructions. The cognitive section includes reading conprehension, spatial relationship, group association and number sequence puzzles. The exam prep books in the library for the mail carrier test have plenty of sample questions on above subjects. For the mechanics section I went to the library and checked out a 6th grade science book on basic mechanics.( I dont remember learning this stuff in 6 th grade) Pulleys, Gears, Weight X Force, Area of a circle etc. Questions i recal include,Oil viscosity, when your car is cold in the morning is the oil thick or light? Define multi viscosity and how its relates to hot or cold engine. There's a question about a Cold chisle with a mushroom head???? Another question on Over filling gear oil- will it cause foaming???? Review the exam prep books on Machinest and Mechanic tests. Make sure to review basic algebra associative and distributive laws. Then theres several questions on basic electricity, voltage dividers, series parrallel circuits, inductors and capacitors. And make sure to review Battery charging specs, hygrometor, electrolite and outgassing. Good luck!!!!!

if you are in the maintenance craft you do not have to wait a year to retake any test. you just have to prove you have additional training.

/m804 Airhog, After passing MPE Exam in 02/07 I recived application and KSA package within a month. It took another two months to hear from them after I submitted Ap and KSA's. It took 8 months after i interviewed with supervisor and Manager to get hired. It is impossible to get hold of HR before the interview stage!!!!1

They are talking about building a new facility to replace, and combine our P&DC and various annexes. I was wondering if anyone had any experience going through this process? I am wondering how they handle the move, so you just one day show up at the new building on the same tour with your same off days? Or do you have to do an entire re-bid process, and do they change the staffing package prior to moving? They are already talking about offering early-out's to those eligible and willing (which I take as a bad sign). I know that they have been putting up new buildings across the country and am wondering what kind of trouble we are in for.....
