Completed the application on line and received a link to schedule the 473 exam. My test date was scheduled for March 25th. Once I took the exam I received my scores by email by the time i walked out of the building. I waited over a moth and received an email for a interview, May 5th. There were about 50+ people there. Try to get there a little early because its a 1st come first interview. We went over paper work of our application and any completed additional forms. I was there maybe 3 hrs. May 6th, I received 2 links to take the drug test and back ground check /dmv check. You have 3 days to get this done. May 16th I received an email for the 2nd interview. There were only about 20 people there based on how many people were in the 1st interview. The 2nd interview wasn't really an interview, you basically were offered the job. We completed w2 forms and finger printing and received the letter for the start date for the paid week long orientation. It was mentioned when attending orientation there will be a test for driving the postal vehicle and you must pass it successfully to move forward for this position. good luck...hope this helps
