SAN DIEGO – The U.S. Postal Service is hosting job fairs in San Diego and San Bernardino in the coming weeks to facilitate the hiring of more than 500 employees.

The 500+ available positions include jobs as City Carrier Assistants, Mail Handler Assistants, Postal Support Clerk Employees and Rural Carrier Associates and hourly pay from $16.87 to $19.06 an hour.

“This is a great opportunity for anyone seeking a fast-paced, rewarding work environment with good pay,” said USPS Human Resources Manager Lawnet Braggs. “While these 500 positions are not career positions, we hope and expect that every single person we hire will take advantage of the opportunities to advance and become a part of our career work force, with all of the benefits that entails.”

Pre-registration is encouraged, and social distancing and face masks are required to attend either job fair. Interested applicants can pre-register by scanning the QR codes below or going online at www.eventbrite.com. Walk-in applicants will be accepted based upon space availability.
