How does one apply to become a Postal Inspector? Specifically, where
can I find an application (hopefully online), and where can I read
about the job application/ interview process?

I was not impressed with the information I found at 
http://www.usps.com/search97cgi/s97_cgi?action=View&VdkVgwKey=http://www.usps.com/postalinspectors/&DocOffset=1&DocsFound=30&QueryZip=inspector&SourceQueryZip=%5FHome%5FPages%3COR%3E%5FBV%5FCategory%5FPages&Collection=external&&HLNavigate=off
