Was it difficult for you to get hired? When I call the toll free number for info, I'm asked for money in order to purchase a study guide, and nothing else. Please tell me the appropiate steps to apply for a postal position (those of you who already have postal service jobs). Thank you! I worked for the USPS in another state about 15 0r 16 years ago, and the hiring procedure just isn't the same now as it was then.
