P.S. He works for UPS.
If only a small number of people are applying, I wonder why UPS hasn't started interviewing. Numerous qualified people have applied and keep posting questions on what others' experiences are since they haven't heard anything (or maybe just got the on-line assessment). Maybe the ones getting invited to interviews from the most recent window just aren't posting up their experiences. I seem to have exactly what they're looking for being a heavy military driver with tons of transoceanic experience, but I haven't even received an on-line assessment (I applied on 4/17 and don't have any internal recs). Hearing that not many people have applied is pretty discouraging to me since I haven't heard anything.
