Applying for a job at the United States Postal Service (USPS) can be done online through the USPS Careers website. Here are the steps to follow:

1. Go to the USPS Careers website: Start by going to the USPS Careers website (https://about.usps.com/careers/).

2. Search for available jobs: Click on "Search Jobs" to view current job openings. You can search by job title, location, and other criteria.

3. Review job requirements: Read the job description and requirements carefully to ensure you meet the qualifications for the job you want to apply for.

4. Create an account: To apply for a job, you'll need to create an account on the USPS Careers website. Click on "Create Account" and follow the instructions to set up your profile.

5. Submit an application: Once you have found a job opening you are interested in and have created an account, you can submit an application by clicking on "Apply". You will need to upload your resume and answer a series of questions related to your experience and qualifications.

6. Take the assessment: You will need to complete an assessment to be considered for a USPS job. The assessment measures your suitability for the job and takes about 30-45 minutes to complete.
