Might be 2-3 weeks with the hiring frenzy we are on. If you have your recruiters email address, You could always email your recruiter and just say you are checking in and that you did your drug test and finger prints. Keep your receipts for both of those as you never know what may happen.

 Have you completed the finger print screen and the USPS background check? If you did and that comes back clean then you should get an email from your recruiter advising you the next step. The USPS background is the one that takes the longest. Are you applying for a ramp position, if so where? Good Luck !!!!!!

Right now the USPS background check process is taking 3-4 weeks! Then your Recruiter or Coordinator will get you set up with a class date!

Is the usps background separate from the swa background? Will I have to do another set of fingerprints?
