Rural carriers in three districts now have easy and convenient access to automated job bidding.
As of June 18, rural carriers in the Northland (Minnesota and Wisconsin), Central Illinois and Tennessee districts must use automated bidding. The online process will be extended to all rural carriers by the end of fiscal year 2010.
Rural carriers in these districts now have the same access to automated bidding as clerks, letter carriers and mail handlers. Access options include eJob bidding located at LiteBlue; H.R. kiosks and Web-bidding computers; or through phone bidding interactive voice response at 877–477–3273, option 2 (TDD/TTY at 800–865–7208).
To bid, rural carriers need to know their employee identification number (EIN), postal PIN and their preference of positions. No PIN? No problem. Go to LiteBlue’s Log In page, click on “Forget Your PIN?” Then, enter your EIN and request a new one.
I would like to bid on another job… It shows that Im ELG for the position but I cant bid. PLS help
Melandie – there is no way we can help you – we are not an official part of USPS. Best of luck. PEN

I want to move to another state but i’ts beem a pain to make a bid
iam having too much trouble
I got on to my liteblue account.. And was able to put in a bid for a route, in my office! Now, they told me I need my pin, in order to bid a route successfully. But I was never asked for my pin #, nor given an option to enter my PIN number.. But it says my bid was successful! What did I do wrong? Lol

Is there a way you can tell if you were successful on bidding without waiting for HR to post results? Does it tell you if you are successful?
Allison – please post your question in our Rural Carrier Forum. Here: http://www.quicktopic.com/16/H/CL3JYbYpvQnSy or ask your union steward.
Is there a maximum number of routes you can bid on at a time?
I got onto the LITE BLUE postal wed site with no problem but I can’t get on the Ejob bidding site, What am I doing wrong?

Once you put in a bid, how does it work? Is it based on seniority / hire date? Where to I go to look up this answer ? Been searching the Postal sites for an hour+ and can’t find answers as to how this works. Thanks
Kelly – post your question at our rural carrier blog – you should be able to get an answer there. PEN
