[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 52481"] Frustrated, I hired for UPS before I'll tell you what I see and what you have to convince UPS you can overcome. In telling you I'm not trying to piss you off. When I look at your information I see someone that is burning the candle at both ends. Working a full-time job , working this part time job and then taking your 45 mile drive home. That is a long , long hard day. Our past experience has shown us that most people don't stick it out because its just plain too hard to do everything your attempting to do. That part time benifit job will work you to death. It may be harder then anything you've done before. Your looking at a lifestyle where you will be dead tired all week with only about 4 to 5 hours of a sleep a day and very little time to see your family. Your turnover risk is very high. The HR department and the inside operation is held accontable for their turnover frequency. However because you keep calling all the time they think you might have the drive to stick it out. They are willing to take a chance on you. The safe answer for them is to hire you as a xmas/ seasonal hire. If you turnover as such it does not count against them as bad because all seasonals turnover anyway at the end of the year. The seasonal job is the chance you are looking for.
