Can anyone tell me if they took it...what score the got and how soon you got called for an interveiw.....and maby all the steps that come after being called?
I took the test for Rural Carrier in 1989 and passed it with a 80. I was called maybe 6 months later. I worked on Long Island in New York as an RCA Rural Carrier Associate. I loved the job, basically they train you to sort and deliver mail. Later on you are also trained to drive a 1/2 ton truck. PROBLEMS: If you dont get a route right away usually you have to fill in for somebody, for me I was always able to get work even if you have to call other post offices to see if they need help. I usually worked 40 hours plus a 9hr sat route. When I worked I made good money $12.60 per hr but no benefits unless your full time plus you have to use your own car if they have nothing available. After awhile you can also bid on a route for yourself or get a transfer to another state. Dont forget this is almost 20 years ago, maybe things have changed. GOOD LUCK!!!!! Hope this info helps.
