LANCASTER, PA — For job seekers looking for stability, strong benefits, and room to grow, the United States Postal Service is opening its doors in Lancaster.
The USPS is inviting area residents to attend a job fair later this month, offering a chance to explore immediate openings and learn firsthand about career opportunities within what it describes as the nation’s most trusted federal agency. While many people think of letter carriers and clerks, postal careers span more than 2,000 different job titles once employees reach career status.
Positions are available across a wide range of departments, including Workforce Planning, Information and Technology, Communications, Marketing, Finance, Human Resources, Legal, Logistics and Infrastructure, Sales, Inspection Service and Postal Police, Processing and Distribution, and Retail and Delivery.
Beyond the variety of roles, postal employment comes with a benefits package designed for long-term financial security. Career employees receive paid leave, health benefits, opportunities for advancement, and three retirement income sources: a Postal Annuity, Social Security, and the Thrift Savings Plan.
At the Lancaster job fair, USPS personnel will be onsite to answer questions about available positions, starting pay, and benefits. Attendees can receive guidance on how to apply and what qualifications are required.
Applicants must be at least 18 years old and able to pass a drug screening and background investigation. Availability for weekends and holidays is required. All applications are accepted online.
For those considering a career change, reentering the workforce, or seeking dependable federal employment, the upcoming event provides a convenient way to explore options close to home.
