I called and the rep said it would cost $100.00 to take the test.

DO NOT EVER PAY FOR THE TEST! Yes, if they tell you need to pay for the test it is a scam. The U.S. Postal Service puts these tests out about every 3 years, sometimes less. They NEVER charge to take the test. If they ask you to pay, it is a scam.

No, they aren't usually a scam. You could call or go in to your local Post Office and they can tell the the place and date of the test, that way you know for sure..I didn't think they charged you to take the test though.

Yes! I work for the Post Office and I know a person that went to one of those "seminars." All they do is help you practice the test that the Post Office will give you to study before the exam. If you want to work for the post office, just go to your local employment office (another one of my past employers) and they should be able to give you information. Then once you apply for the exam, you will be sent a packet in the mail to study. The test is long, but really not that bad.

it does cost money to do that stuff, so i wouldn't think it is a scam. I heard about this on the news once. It is pretty expensive to get started with the job. Get more info about.

yes they are a scam - those companies are not with the united states post office - they want you to pay some BS fee - any job that want you to pay them before they pay you is full of bull - even when you apply for a job at Mcdonlds they dont ask for a small fee inorder to work for there companies.....
If a company ask you to pay them to work for them, run from them. The only thing you should pay for is new work clothes, lunch, and transportion

they are TOTAL scams! They always make you have to buy something. In real life, you can apply at any postal job without paying.

Any job that requires you to pay money for the job, is more than likely a scam. Why would you have to pay an employer to work for them?

what variety of $129 elements does a Sorter Clerk favor? perhaps you're determining to purchase drug sorting out for the completed mail room? you would possibly want to not favor to pay for elements till you're going right into a commerce like carpentry or welding, in which case you'll purchase the elements on your own. i think that is accessible you want to pay for a Forklift Operator route so that you ought to pass palettes yet i'm particular it wouldn't have stated '$129 funds for fabrics' if so.
