I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at UPS (Canton, OH) in Mar 2018
Interview
They are very straight forwarded.They described the position and what they expect from us.They need people with good work ethics and HARD HARD WORKERS,they have very high standards and expectations that’s why you are paid so much.They are very strict in the enforcement of their policies and standards.!!!After 2-3 interviews in the past 2 years I finally got a chance to do the road test and I failed because I don’t know how to drive standard manual transmission even so I drive trucks with stick shift.Thats why is very important that you know how to drive standard manual transmission I highly recommend practicing 5-6 speeds I had 5 speed,maybe someone will say it’s the same as in the truckS,NO IT’S NOT.I miss my opportunity and I don’t believe that I will get another chance in UPS,that’s why I’m writing this for the future candidates not to repeat my mistake.Good Luck UPS IS THE BEST!!!

I applied online. I interviewed at UPS (Redmond, WA) in Aug 2017
Interview
Applied online. At the end of the online application I was given two time slots to choose from for a on-site interview. I applied on a Monday and the interview was on Thursday of the same week. At the interview there was three other guys. Someone from HR greeted us and took us on a tour of the facility. Showed us a full truck getting ready to leave. Even let us check out the computer program with a routes information on it. Then we went up to the breakroom. It was there she laid out exactly what to expect in the process. This included starting pay, a brief overview of benefits, and the onboarding process. The basic road map is as follows:
- Apply Online
- Interview(tour and then 1 on 1's) Wait for a phone call if you made it through the first steps.
-Driving test(to see if you can handle driving their manual transmission trucks)
- DoT Physical/Background Check
-40 hours of training (She said there's lots of videos and study guides to learn)
-30 day probationary period(Where you go out with a supervisor everyday until you can run a route by yourself)
This is where she says she looses the most people. In this location(Redmond,WA there's only four training routes. Sometimes there's a wait list for said routes. Could be a few days or a month. This downtime is unpaid.
It definitely seemed from the HR lady and in talking with other guys that are drivers that this 30 day probation is tough. But if you make it through and they feel good about your performance you are then officially a employee. and they let you loose on a route of your own, by yourself.
