I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at UPS in Feb 2012
Interview
I was a driver helper and was given a good review during peak season. 3 months later HR called and I went in for a short tour and 5 hours of paid training.
There was no drug test. NO real interview. Was asked about five basic questions like will I have trouble lifting 70 lbs and will I be able to make the 5pm to 10pm requirement for shift. I was told they do a background check, but have no way to know if they actual did one.
They made a big deal about wearing non slip shoes and 8 keys to lifting and 5 keys to avoid slips and falls.

Question 1
Will you be able to make at least a one year commitment.
Setup an appointment with the interviewer. Interviewed with a large group of applicants. They took us on a tour of the building during one of the shifts. It gave us an idea the job consists of and what we would be doing.
There was no interview at all. You are automatically hired and put to work within 20 mins of your first day. You have 30 working days to see and prove if you are fit for the job.
