Interview
Very basic questions regarding your past experience, asked about the understanding about the interviewed position, went through background, and if you wanted to raise any questions regarding the job
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at UPS
Interview
I was surprised at how many people were there along with me -- if they do the tour/interview every day for a bunch of consecutive days, seems like I have some competition! They brought us into the facility, read us a printout explaining wages/benefits/union dues and the physical intensity of the job, then led us to the loading and unloading areas, as well as explaining sorting. We stood inside a semi truck and looked at the conveyor belts moving packages along. For unloading it seems like you just tear the packages out as fast as you can while still making sure they're address-label-up -- the loading part we didn't get to see as the truck the interviewer took us to was half-full but vacant, I guess they were on break. The interview was super brief, so brief I forgot my well-rehearsed speech (lol) and who knows what the interviewer thought of me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Not unexpected -- just do you have any questions, do you have any experience in this type of job, do think you'd do this job 12+ months.
I applied online. I interviewed at UPS in Oct 2014
Interview
I applied online, then immediately selected a date on which to take a tour of the hub and be interviewed for the position. As other reviews have said, there's no need to be well-dressed. Come in whatever you want.
After all the interviewees waited in a room for a little while, the lady from HR came in, gave a brief summary of the job (almost word-for-word what's on the website) and took the group on a brief tour of the hub. Following this, everyone went back into the room and she called us one-by-one for our "interviews."
A little more than a week later (during which they were performing a background check), the call came offering me the job.

Question 1
There wasn't really an "interview," at least not in the traditional sense. She just asked for your social security number, asked if you're currently going to school, and confirmed what shift you were applying for.
