I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at UPS in July 2019
Interview
The entire hiring process was completed online with no human interaction. I took about 1 hour in total. I began submitted the application from home on a Saturday morning and soon after received an email with instructions about when/where to report for my first early morning shift on the following Tuesday.
I started by creating a user account, provided some basic details and selected a job role and location. Then, for about 30 minutes, I ran through a series of timed mini-games designed to assess my capabilities around memory, thoroughness, lateral thinking, attention to detail, etc. Based on the results, the system approved me for the job and then had me fill out the various employment, payroll and tax forms.
An HR person called me on Monday to confirm the specifics. Twelve hours later I began work.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One test involved selecting a card from 1 of 3 piles. You'd receive positive or negative points based on the card, but there was no consistency in the cards from any of the piles. The test was meant to assess pattern recognition, requiring you to identify which pile would consistently supply positive cards and which would not.
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.
