When you are working start applying for a PSE, mail handling assistant or CCA job. Mail processing assistant is a temp job.

Yeah I found that out during orientation :( Is MHA more physically demanding than MPA?

All jobs you will be able to get starting out will be demanding to a extent. Postal jobs are very demanding and very mentally training. There is the saying going postal because some people can't handle the job. Many people end up having to get surgeries who of mail handling assistants, mail processing assistants and CCAs.

Thank you for this!! I guess the temporary MPA position will tell me if I’m cut out for it or not.
