The U.S. Postal Service is gearing up for a busy holiday shipping season and it is looking to hire more workers.

USPS is hosting a weeklong hiring fair at the Cincinnati Main Post Office at 1591 Dalton Ave.

Earlier this year, U.S. postal management found low employee availability to be one of the primary causes of shipping delays.

The postal service has immediate openings for positions including mail handler assistants and city carrier assistants. Starting hourly pay will range between $16.87 and $18.92. USPS is recruiting for full-time, part-time and seasonal positions.

The hiring fair is between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. every day through Dec. 3. Applicants must still officially apply online at www.usps.com/careers.

The hiring fair will allow prospective applicants a chance to ask questions and learn more about open positions.
