Article Title: Guffey Encourages Postal Veterans
To Spread the Word About New Job Opportunities Article Snip: In many instances, the Postal Service is obligated to hire veterans before civilians, provided they are on the appropriate hiring register, Guffey said. Veterans should be educated about the benefits of being a postal employee and encouraged to take the necessary tests to be considered for employment.
“We want to make sure that veterans across the nation are on the list when hiring begins,” he said.
Along with the letter, the union included a short tutorial that explains how veterans can conduct job searches and apply for new positions. Reference: www.apwu.org
