I've been reading these forums for the past day or 2. Great info and cheers for all the knowledge being passed on. Hither'south my situation:

Around roughly 18-19 years ago I worked as a PTF carrier for a very short period of fourth dimension, tin can't recall exactly how long but probably less than a calendar month. I was immature and stupid and didn't give it enough time. I got frustrated very easily working in an unfamiliar neighborhood, using my own vanquish upward car to evangelize the mail and I had difficulty reading maps. I had some concentration bug likewise when I was younger. I quit.

Fast forward to at present. I simply moved to the westward coast from NY and take been job hunting. I got to talking to the carrier at the apartments where I'm staying. I asked her if USPS was hiring around here and she said yes, they need people. She told me what to do nigh applying online and taking the tests. So I took the CCA exam last week and got an 82.10.

My biggest fear is that if USPS human resources checks their computers and sees that I quit so abruptly all those years ago that they wouldn't requite me a second take a chance. I'k a much different person now and those concentration issues are way behind me.

So I guess my question is does the USPS give "second chances" or am I out of luck when they search my name in their computers and see what happened all those years ago? I take a spotless driving and criminal record.

I'm just agape USPS doesn't requite 2nd chances. I don't plan on lying on any paperwork if it gets that far on whether or non I previously worked for USPS. I'm also not sure if I should bring up my brief prior employment with them if I go to an interview. I don't even remember the exact dates I worked.

Sorry for being so long winded and thanks for reading and any communication is appreciated.

    I think what you lot are applying for is a temp job. I know if y'all previously worked for usps yous send a letter to hour to exist reinstated they will sign you lot up for the examination and as long as you pass and you weren't fired they will requite you a spot.

      I quit in 1991 after half dozen years equally a career clerk in automation on tour 1. I was relocating to the due west coast and getting married and the EX husband did non want me working at the mail service office when I moved. I foolishly agreed and quit. Fast frontward from 1991 to 2000 and I was rehired as a PMR for 2 years. I quit again to have a job in the private sector that offered benefits. I worked in that location till June 2013 when due to a downturn in concern I was laid off (with no observe past my employer). I contacted HR and asked most beingness reinstated and was told that they no longer hired career employees and reinstatement was not possible. I was told to retake the exam and apply for seasonal piece of work equally a PSE. I did, was rehired and laid off in after the seasonal work concluded and the rehired in May of this year on a 360 letter of the alphabet. So, long story short - yeah it is possible to go rehired, although I don't believe you can come back as career - only every bit a CCA, PSE, RCA, etc

        I was a career letter carrier for 7 years, then resigned to become to school. Nigh a year ago I was hired as a CCA. I asked the union if I could be reinstated just they claim it cannot be washed. I cannot even get my seniority back. Merely that's fine. Do not lie near your time with usps in your application, they have your paperwork. Honestly, I don't know if they would rehire yous, but since it was such a long time ago, I call up information technology should be a minor issue. Just be honest. Remember that the pay is different. In 2000, as a new PTF, I was making more coin per hour than I am at present equally a CCA. Good luck

              I was an RCA - didn't cease probation.

              I was a Casual - allow become after New year's day's.

              Casual once again - permit go subsequently six months.

              RCA over again - didn't finish probation.

              CCA - converted subsequently 18 months.

              Yes, the PO gives second and third and fourth chances. Just as long as you don't have a drug problem and pass the 473 you're in.

              If you're going through Hell, proceed going.

                  Cheers for posting this. A couple items worry me. Namely:

                  Folio 89, section 512.225- Obtaining my personnel file from my previous USPS employment.

                  Page 98, section 514.12- Previous unsatisfactory service with USPS.

                  Am I overthinking this? I just hope prior mistakes don't come back to haunt me.

                    i) You but have to go dorsum ten years on your application. At present, the PO will certainly exist interested in previous PO activity. So . . .

                    2) Why did you leave? (Voluntarily or involuntarily) Career or non-career at the time? Did you pass probation?

                    three) Detect the passage states:
                    The unsatisfactory service must accept been long enough to be considered a total and fair trial, and
                    the character of the service must indicate that the applicant would be
                    unlikely to perform satisfactorily in the new position.

                    four) Notice the next part:
                    OPM, in its discretion, may deny that person examination for and engagement to a
                    competitive position for a menses of not more than 3 years from the engagement of
                    determination of unsuitability. This 3-year menstruation is known every bit debarment.
                    On expiration of debarment, a person who has been debarred may not exist
                    appointed to whatever position in the competitive service (including the Postal
                    Service) until OPM has redetermined that person's suitability for appointment.

                    Everything seems to show that unless you lot were REMOVED, y'all should exist OK to reapply.

                    If you're going through Hell, keep going.

                      I remember I wasn't terminated. I resigned. I know I was a PTF carrier back then. I honestly don't remember much except I had to use my ain motorcar to deliver park and loops and it caused me anxiety. I vaguely retrieve beingness frustrated due to not knowing the expanse very well too.

                      Just it was such a long time ago. I know I wasn't fired. I've never been terminated from whatever job. I only didn't requite it enough time. It's been almost xx years, I know I'grand a unlike person now.

                      Does USPS fifty-fifty keep personnel records from that long ago? Maybe it's buried in a pile of dust in some basement.

                        If you quit, you lot have no problem. If y'all didn't pass probation, you have no problem. I've done both. Don't worry. Move forward.

                        The Post Function is considerably different than it was 20 years ago. But the frustration of doing a road y'all don't know will continue. I've done 48 of the 50 routes at my station. The first time on each was a hurting. But 20 months later, I pretty much know the entire surface area. So the frustration is well worth it. And you get PAID to learn routes. Tin can't beat that.

                        If you're going through Hell, continue going.

                            Yous can be rehired. But at some point y'all're going to have to pass LLV training. Your job with the PO is "terminated" no matter how it ends. What'south of import is that your PS 50 does Not state "Do not re-hire". Yous can become a re-create of your final PS 50 by calling HRSSC. Unless you nevertheless have admission to LiteBlue, then you can see for yourself.

                            A couple questions/suggestions for y'all.

                            1) Did you SIGN a paper stating you resigned? Did yous read it carefully to encounter that it did state "resigned"? If so, you're good. People quit the PO all the fourth dimension, and re-use later on.

                            2) If an LLV is an issue for you, you might try working in a establish for at least the holidays, and then get for CCA again later on Christmas.

                            iii) One other matter . . . if y'all fail LLV training, there is a waiting period before you tin re-take. Come across point number two to a higher place if you want to work for the PO while waiting for your ability to re-have the LLV test.

                              If the LLV training is really hard for yous to pass, so you may need to consider an "within" position, such equally a PSE or MHA, where passing that particular training would not be a requirement.

                              In that location probably are not quite as many PSE/MHA vacancies equally CCA ones, but in a major metropolitan expanse, like Chicago, there should be more than than a few. Delight note that in these jobs, y'all will accept to be prepared to work nights, so if working nights is a "bargain billow" for you, then don't apply for whatsoever PSE or MHA jobs.

                                Honestly I recall it was a personal issue she was yelling and really ambitious with me. I went to report her and her name ranged bells for situations like this before, just regardless of that I lost my chore! :( I practical for inside positions as well as cca again my supervisor suggested information technology to me. And yes the paper I signed says resignation/transfer. I don't mind working nights for inside jobs as because as a cca I moved out to the streets in the morning and came dorsum at night lol. It was hectic but the pay was great and they need cca's like crazy here just they rarely open pse and inside jobs for Chicago I applied in June for the within and have not heard from them yet. Exercise I accept to take the examination once more or is my profile and score still valid?

                                  Your score is good for several years. Your profile should tell you when information technology expires, and what jobs it is good for.

                                  If you practical in June for something, you may as well figure they've moved on. So re-apply for whatever looks good. Just retrieve, you can't re-take the driving test for ninety days.

                                  Nosotros decide which is right; and which is an illusion. I've got blisters on me fingers!
