The Postal Service initiated a new
screening exam for entry-level job applicants in December of 2004 with the new
473 Major Entry-Level Jobs exam. The 4th edition of "Post
Office Jobs" is one of the first books to include a study guide for the
new 473 and 473-C Postal Exams. It provides all the information
needed to locate job vacancies and includes a comprehensive study guide to prepare for
and pass exams with helpful test-taking strategies to improve test scores.
You will be able to explore all jobs, including jobs that
don't require entrance tests. Having worked 35½ years for Uncle Sam, the
author provides an insider's perspective on what it takes to go from job
hunter to hired, and everything in between.
Anyone interested in a
challenging career, with job security and excellent pay, needs to explore
the lucrative Postal Service job market. The average annual salary for
employees, including benefits, equals $27.42 an hour or $57,051 a year.
Executives, professional and administrative employees earn between $20,875
to $161,200 per year.
Those considering a job with the Postal Service will find Damp’s book

"This popular book had been updated and expanded with two
additional chapters and an appendix to provide all the information necessary
to land a U. S. Postal Service position. Perusable and thorough, it covers
such topics as qualification requirements and application procedures, job
descriptions (including professional, administrative, and maintenance
positions), a pay schedule and description of benefits, and information on
hiring preferences for veterans. Over a third of the book is devoted to
testing, with realistic sample exams as well as tips and answer keys.
