What is on USPS Virtual Entry Assessment - MP (476) / Postal Exam 476?

There are four sections, described below, on USPS Virtual Entry Assessment – MP (476), also called Postal Exam 476, most of which consist of bizarre questions and very odd answer choices. It is not unusual for applicants to fail because they never really understand the questions or how to answer them.

Work Scenarios Section
Each question in this section describes a situation that you might encounter on the job. The four answer choices are potential actions that you could take in response to that situation. You are to select two answer choices, the action you would be most likely to take and the action you would be least likely to take. Most people will find all of the answer choices to be reasonable. There are no obvious correct answers.

Check for Errors Section
This is the only where there are specific right and wrong answers. Each question is a pair of 8-digit numbers that you are to compare to see if they are exactly alike or have any differences whatsoever.

Tell Us Your Story Section
This section asks about your work experience and background. Each question has you describe your experience in different types of jobs and situations.

Describe Your Approach Section
The questions in this section ask about many topics such as your approach to work circumstances, your personality, how you relate to other people, how you handle stress, your goals, your conscientiousness, your motivation, your attentiveness, etc. The questions consist of two statements that may seem to say the same thing or may be completely opposite. You are to choose which statement best describes you and to what degree the chosen statement describes you. It is never obvious which answer choice may be best.

The big problem with this exam is that most answer choices can seem reasonable, but they are looking for specific preferred answers. Based upon your answers, the scoring software builds a profile of you and compares it to their theoretical profile for an ideal employee. Your score is a measure of how well you match their ideal profile.
