Fed Ex Corporate

[TonyC]

When you got all this and very happy smile to everybody in Memphis, you will see that you are missing the most important qualification: your liason/connection/body/friend among the Iluminati from Memphis. Good Luck

References are critical for getting to an interview from outside FedEx Express - - the external process. They are NOT required for the INTERNAL process.

It's understandable that you harbor bitter resentment against FedEx due to the percieved mistreatment of your buddy. Choosing to take a job with FedEx Express in order to take advantage of the Internal Hiring process is always a risk. As with any risk, one must measure the potential for success against the potential for failure, and the attending costs and rewards. Some of us have taken the risk and received a handsome reward. Some have taken the risk and incurred a cost. That phenomenon, my friend, is not unique to FedEx.

Well said, Tony. Thank you.

Every career move entails some risk. It does not always work out as expected. I've made a couple "career enhancing" moves that absolutely did not work out, but, at the time, I felt they were risks worth taking.

About a 2 years ago I spoke with the corporate chief pilot. He didnt know me from adam and took the time to have me fax my resume and take a look. I didnt have enough time and experience but the guy was great. As a young pilot starting out having someone take some time to talk to ya was great. Does anyone know if the same guy is still around?

I don't know if this will help, but here goes. I live in MEM and know the CP. I talked with him about 6 months ago before heading back over to the desert. Here is how you get a interview. You must go through the same process as a position on the flight line at Fed Ex. You need to send a copy of your resume to the corporate flight department. Sorry I don't have there fax number but if you would call Fed Ex for their flight department (Corporate) they should give it to you. Mark M. the chief pilot said that if they want you they call over to Humarn Resources to pull your name for an interview. You go through all the steps, testing, background checks, interview and the sim ride. Either an Airbus or DC 10.
Then if all things go as planned you are offered an job, then you are sent to a Lear school training, must likely in ATL at Flight Safety.

I hope this helps.

I believe the Chief Pilot's name is Paul Meyer. Extraordinary man.
