Maintenance Mechanic Interview
I applied in-person. I interviewed at US Postal Service
Interview
Massive set of questions and testing. Understand it is easier now . There is a difference between “in service” and “outside”. In service means you already are employed there. The testing is easier in service. So I suggest just get in, then transfer to the job you want. Also depends if their area has a position available. However, they do have a “roster” holding for people who have qualified.
- Required to show skill set on an actual troubleshooting board where they insert faults. At the time you were also given a “black box” with test points. The object was for you to identify the unknown parts inside. (electronic parts) very easy if you know basic electronics.
