What job position/title is given to the person who assists you at the counter at the post office?
Asked by ♥ mocha-baby
I am trying to see if I can apply for a job at the post office BUT I don't know what that position is called. Many thanks!

Best Answer:
You don't apply for a specific position. You take the test for one of the crafts. Clerk, Carrier, Mailhandler, Maintinence Electronics Technician (hot area now) etc. I admire your entusiasm, but there are people who go a whole 30 year career and never have an opportunity to work a daylight position. Most Clerks and Mailhandlers that are hired, go straight to the midnight shift. You would have to wait it out until you can gain enough seniority to have a shot at an SSA postion. The position has been named Sales and Service Associate for quite a few years now. Like I said, There are workers that never get a decent shot at an SSA, or any daylight job, during a 30 year career. I have almost 24 years in, and I am still only 23rd on the seniority list.

Good luck! "Customer Service Clerk" is what I'd use, but I don't know 100%. However, if you went to the website and did a job search, I'm sure it'd tell you there.

They are called window clerks and the only way to apply is threw usps.com and you have to take a test to get that position call the 473 battery exam and it is not given often like every two years or so and you have to pass the test with a high score and veterans will get the job before you and there is still a waiting list here is the link to find your state to see if that exam is given u have to check it at least once a week or call the a post office and ask them when the 473 exam will open up https://uspsapps.hr-services.org/
