Before a selection has been made or the medical assessment scheduled, a certified interviewer is scheduled to conduct an interview with applicants on the Hiring Worksheet (see 54, Preemployment Interview). Wherever feasible, the eligibles must be given the opportunity to visit the actual job site and to observe working conditions. The selecting official or certified interviewer discusses the following with the eligible:
- Duties of the position.
- Working hours including reporting times, overtime, holidays, and weekends.
- An explanation of the Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action policy.
- Required dress code.
See 512.21, Preemployment Orientation, for additional information.
Appointing officials are responsible for the cost effective and efficient operation of their installations, for the security and sanctity of the mail that flows through their installations, and for the conduct of their employees.
To uphold this responsibility, it is important that appointing officials carefully and accurately evaluate eligibles.
Employees routinely receive and must respond to inquiries from supervisors and customers; therefore, employees must have a basic competence in speaking and understanding English.
