Did you get an email reminder the day before your 'info session'?! You could reply to that and see what happens.
For all new hires, go here (on topic)

No but on the flip side they shouldn't be expected to sit idly by for upwards of a month waiting to hear back.
It literally says noreply. And that they won’t read it in fine print at the bottem
No but I do expect a no sorry or something that doesn’t get my hopes up. And I do expect actual help from people and not a sarcastic butthole sitting behind their screen laughing at me.

How about the person's name? That way you could try and send them one that way.
Sorry to have to break it to you but you should not hold your breath ( especially since peak is about to ramp up), better off grabbing something else.

You'd end up having a lot of unmet expectations if hired.
The email has no name it says “[email protected]” they gave me nothing to contact a real person but it doesn’t matter I’ll still try for the position after if it passes peak season if they don’t respond

He may very well have an active interview still chilling in some HR reps to-do box. On upsjobs.com, it'll tell you if the position you applied for is accepted or pending or open or closed/unavailable. It couldn't hurt to send an email, say you have an open application and went to the group or whatever, and you're still interested in helping the best parcel service in the US or whatever. There's a general contact HR email too. They then redirect it to the regional who handles those things and maybe they'll email you back. There will be constant walk throughs and orientations the next few months. For my job I had to stay as an open applicant, let it sit for 2 weeks in the system, then contact HR. I emailed and reminded, called, interviewed by the same person who interviewed me before peak, and started work the next day. They like to see that you want it.

I start tomorrow as a PH. Orientation at 7:30 am. The HR rep told me it would be "about 3 to 4 hours." Does that sound right? I guess after orientation I'll start working Wed at 3:00 am.

Good luck.
Hi,
I went in for the tour last night. There were a handful of us and we were given the tour and told about everything else I have read on the forums.
Can you lift 70 Pounds
What the hourly rate is going to be
What the union dues will be and so on.
After the end of the tour the HR person said that this is a hire contingent on background results. Now I took this as they need bodies and a long as you are clear of anything negative on your screening.
When I returned home I had additional information to fill out
I am going to say this is a good thing but if I am wrong please correct me.

Can you pass the background check?
Yeah I have no issues with a background and have both a cc permit and a passport, not that eaither really means much these day’s but that would be getting into politics.
I am 100% work from home in the IT field so this is some extra income to thwart my mid life spending crisis, although I am burned out of IT and UPS at this time would not be anything more than my Harley payment
This location is a year old and from what we heard yesterday they are having a hard time getting their numbers and that is part of the reason for the $100 retention incentive.

driver helper coordinator called me last night to let me know i'd be working today (would've been my first day) and to expect a call tomorrow to let me know where to go to meet the driver, etc.
spent all day waiting for that call...then got called at 5pm to let me know i'd be working monday, no explanation about today.
i mean, i knew this was a possibility based on the not-so-great things a lot of people have to say about being an on-call driver helper, i guess i just wasn't expecting it to be on my first day...

Did you think to call back to find out if you were working today or not?
