Fedex Hiring Question

[yvdriver]

Does anyone know if Fedex will interview/hire someone who previously interviewed and was not selected? I interviewed back around Feb. 2000, passed the sim, but didn't make it past the next step. Also, do you need a current FE written to apply, or will an expired one be fine just to apply. Thanks in advance.

FEX - yes

You need a current FE written. As for interviewing after a failed attempt - you'll only know if you apply. Don't shoot yourself in the foot by not applying.

I had two people in my new hire class in July that had previously interviewed (2-3 years ago) and didn't make it on the first shot. Keep trying and good luck.

I was under the impression that a "rejection" letter contained the conditions for reattepting the interview, i.e., "you may reapply after 1 year" or something to that effect. If you still have that letter, you'd do well to review it. If not, I'm pretty sure that one year is the cutoff.


Current FE written is required by FedEx. Period.


Go take the FE written (it ought to be easier this time) and reapply. Good luck!


(Let us know when you get the interview, and we can shower you with all kinds of good advice! Right Albie? )

Thanks to everyone who replied. I will re-apply and take my FE written again. I was incorrectly informed that the written was just required to start training, but not to interview.
