Edmond, OK — The U. S. Postal Service will be sponsoring a Job Fair at the Coffee Creek Station, 407 W Covell Rd., Edmond OK 73003.  The job fair will be held on Monday, August 28, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. During the job fair additional information will be available which will provide specific details about the position to attendees.

Applicants for driving positions must have a valid driver’s license, a safe driving record and at least two years of continuous documented driving history/experience.  To meet the U. S.
