Vancouver Post Office to Host Job Fairs Every Thursday in September

Also Hiring for Seasonal Employees

USPS

If you’re in need of a new job, including a seasonal position, stop by the Vancouver Post Office every Thursday throughout the month of September.  

A postal job offers employees the ability to work where they live, good pay, stability, lifelong benefits and career advancement opportunities throughout the entire agency. 

Our goal is to fill thousands of positions all over the state. In most areas the need is especially urgent for mail carriers, clerks, and mail handlers. However, interested applicants should always check with their local Post Office for information on available positions.

Anyone who needs a full or part-time job, a new career path, a first-time job, or even a seasonal position, please make plans to visit the upcoming job fairs every Thursday throughout September:

Our employees are our greatest asset, and we are investing in our new personnel by providing robust training and on-the-job support. The Postal Service offers stability, competitive wages and benefits, and career advancement opportunities.

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 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.
