The U.S. Postal Service is looking for people who are outgoing, enjoy long walks, road trips with multiple stops along the way, and meeting and connecting with new people. Does this sound like you? If so, then we could be your perfect match!
It’s no secret the Postal Service wants to fill hundreds of jobs across Oregon and USPS is in search of mail carriers, clerks, and mail handlers in Bend, Redmond and the surrounding communities. If you are looking for a (sweet) new full or part time job, career change, or possibly in search of your very first job we can provide good pay, stability, and the ability for career advancement.
Plus, working for the Postal Service also gives you something that other organizations can’t, the chance to share the love (letters and greeting cards), and make a great impact on your community.
Anyone who needs to spice up their life with a new full or part-time job should make plans to visit the upcoming job fairs (bringing chocolate and flowers is optional):
Bend Post Office
Tuesday, Feb. 14 and Wednesday Feb, 15, 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
2300 NE 4th St
Bend, OR 97701
Redmond Post Office
Thursday, Feb. 16 and Friday, Feb. 17, 10 a.m – 4 p.m.
618 NW Hemlock Ave
Redmond, OR 97756
No appointment is necessary (spontaneity keeps it interesting). The fair will help fill positions for Bend, Redmond and the surrounding communities. All job fairs are open to anyone interested in a Postal career. And our employees will help locate jobs across the state for potential applicants as needed.
Postal Service human resources employees will be available to help job fair attendees with benefits, qualifications, and application questions. Laptops will be available on the day of the event for immediate application submission.
While other companies are reducing their workforce, the Postal Service is actively hiring. Our goal is to welcome hundreds of new employees within the next few months across the state of Oregon. The need is especially urgent for mail carriers, clerks, and mail handlers.
Our employees are our greatest asset, and we are investing in our new personnel by providing robust training and on-the-job support. Starting pay varies depending on the job. But starting pay for carriers ranges between $19 and $20 per hour paid bi-weekly. Applications are accepted online at www.usps.com/careers.
Applicants must be 18 years of age and be able to pass drug screening and a criminal background investigation. Although in some instances, interested candidates can also be 16 with a high school diploma.
Applicants must be available to work weekends and holidays. Refer to the job announcement for full details, duties, responsibilities, job requirements, and benefits information. Job postings are updated frequently, so check back often for additional opportunities.
If someone can’t make it to the job fair, or for additional information regarding available positions in all areas, applicants can go to our website at www.usps.com/careers. Jobs are uploaded every other Tuesday until filled. Potential applicants can also visit any Post Office location for more information.
Stabilizing our workforce to ensure we consistently service the nearly 165 million addresses across the country, is one part of the Postal Service’s 10-year Delivering for America plan to achieve financial stability and service excellence.
