San Francisco City Carrier and Veteran Andrew Chung started his postal career by applying at the San Francisco Hiring Center in 2024.

“I get paid to walk and deliver in this beautiful city; I look forward every day to working at the Postal Service. It’s important to find a job that really suits you,” said Chung.
