[QUOTE="SlothTheHobo, post: 4825949, member: 89608"] Had my interview today for seasonal driver. It was the on-road supervisor who administered the interview. I only took the interview because one of the listings I saw was "full-time" and didn't say anything about season/temp. When I got the email from HR it DID say temp/seasonal on it, but I figured I would go to the interview to check it out. The sup was very straightforward and asked what I wanted out of the job. I told him my current situation with my current dead-end union job and was looking to switch into something else full time. He offered me a job on the spot as a "permanent part-time pre-loader." We went over the job and its hours (20/wk). He said it was probably the best way to become a RPCD, and most who want to make the switch in under 2 years. Is this true? Is pre-load the best way to get on full-time as a RPCD? I'd love to join UPS, but I don't think I can make it happen working part time for any extended period of time, or going 9 months without benefits. Are there any actual full-time permanent positions I could get hired off the street for that could leverage into driving full time? [/QUOTE]
