The Postal Service dramatically changed the way they recruit and this is the only book available that describes their new eCareer system and it guides readers step-by-step through the process. You no longer sign up to take a test, you apply for specific job vacancies year round. Exams are still required for most positions however you take a portion of the exam online when you first apply and a proctored exam on a computer at a local testing facility within 14 days from the date you first apply.
 
The new and revised 5th edition of "Post Office Jobs" includes a study guide for the new 473 and 473-C Postal Exams and covers the new eCareer Postal Service hiring process. It provides all the information needed to locate job vacancies and includes a comprehensive study guide to prepare for and pass exams with helpful test-taking strategies to improve test scores. You will be able to explore all jobs, including jobs that don't require entrance tests. Having worked 35½ years for Uncle Sam, the author provides an insider's perspective on what it takes to go from job hunter to hired, and everything in between.

The average annual salary for postal employees, including benefits, equals $32.17an hour or $66,929 a year. Executives, professional and administrative employees earn between $21,293 to $110,329 per year.
