It’s officially summer. Set up a hammock and take a nap in the shade, spend a lazy day at the beach with your toes in the sand, grab a lawn chair and catch some live music at an outdoor concert, or go camping – even if it is just in your own backyard.
Now that you’ve had time to relax, how about a fresh start with a new job? The U.S. Postal Service is hosting four job fairs to seek employees to deliver mail and packages in rural areas.
Make plans today to attend one or more events to learn about federal benefits, career advancement and retirement opportunities in one of the most trusted government agencies.
