What does Sort Observation mean exactly?

 

[Brisket]

You go in, they take you for a tour and you stop at each individual station where jobs are being performed and explain each job... and to take bets on who walks out ( if they can figure out where the exit is)...

Is it a $100 dollar minimum for the bets and is it a paid tour?

Sounds like a FedEx term. At UPS we give prospective new hires "tours."

A human resources lady I've been in contact with for weeks used that term.

Former FedEx HR? Never heard that at UPS before. Heard it at FedEx when I interviewed with them.

The term is self explanatory.

You don't need to add the word dollars when you use the $.

You are a prodigy.

Why does the term even concern you?

Tours aren't paid. You're lucky they're not making you pay them.

Well that wouldn't make sense.

Is this a serious question.

Welcome to UPS.

Wanted to have an idea of what i would be doing.

"This is a new process that i need everyone to go through" So i guess we are taking a page out of fedex's book.

You say "we" like you actually work for ups...

 

[Ups prodigy]

Welcome to UPS.

That's pretty much training, training is paid. but well see.

That's not training. That's their way of weeding out the non-hackers. People who can't keep up with the tour, or take one look at the work being done and decline the opportunity to interview.
