FedEx Handler Job

[fartknocker]

seefive,


Do you know how often these instructor positions open up? I looked on the FedEx website job search and didn't find any positions listed. I would like to do this job and then move over to flying. I have done it here for over a year now and love instructing.

Hey Rhoid,

You sound like a cool guy. Send me your info and I'll fill out an online recommendation for ya.

For those who forgot to bring their sarcasm meters, that one was meant peg the needle. Oh well.

And, oh yeah, I get it. Navy guys. Yanking. Long cruises. HAHA. That's original. Really. Never ever heard that one.

Hey Fartknocker..

Of course, box packing is always an option. But personally, I would keep flying like you already are... and get a job bartending at the local Irish pub just off of Beale Street or working the check-in counter at the local golf course.. You would be surprised who you might meet on the other side of the bar ordering up pints of Guiness from ya or warming up on the first tee for that beautiful score of ninety...... no.... 75! Trading a few of those pints occasionally, along with some friendly, honest conversation and letting those "special customers" what your occupational desires are, might just go one heck of a lot further than boxhandling at the hub.

...Just a thought... it's all about finding out where they are when they are off duty and making the effort/time to get to know them and let them get to know you.

GLTY,

Kav

As an internal hire,and current flex in the Boing,I know quite a bit about this subject. Throwing boxes,or any other job with FEDEX is a good way to get an interview,if you don't have a sponsor. As mentioned it will take a year on the property before you can submit an app for transfer.They must be hiring at the time,and your supervisor must fill out the back of the app. but I know of several people who went to the interview with less than stirling supervisor input,and got hired. Once you get the interview you are competing with all the other interviewees, recentsy of experience will be a factor.I was a professional instructor,and know of several other profesional instructors who didn't get hired the first time.Hope this helps.

I briefly know a FedEx line pilot who took this route. At least that's what he say.
