FedEx Poolie Calls, Fourth Thread

[geauxfly]

This whole thing is bizarre....from the info gathered here, it appears that they went through 27 people to fill a class of 12 for the 4th of Dec (based on Balut's group getting 2 people into that class and that being the cutoff line to begin the 11th of Dec).

Noreaster....I could look back but didn't you interview with Balut? I know Hagar interviewed after the cutoff date. With all of that, just trying to figure out where the class of 30 calls went out to???? I've also heard from someone who knows someone that it's quite possible all the calls have not gone out yet for the 11th? Not sure why but hoping that's true. Thanks again for all the information gathered here.....

Good to see a Louisiana boy getting called. Hopefully I'll be jumping in the pool before long. Currently waiting on my interview call. Was told it should be sometime after the new year.

Good luck in MEM

I guess our intel was off again... :erm: I was hoping to at least see Airfish with the good news. Airfish? Pee test? anything?

Oh well, January is cool with me. Anyone hear of possible January class dates?

Congrats to all!!!!!

Does anyone know when, and how many classes there will be in January? Will it be all SO, or a mix of FO/SO?

Update through 11 Dec class

Here's the update through the 11 Dec class. 4 out of our 5 got called for class. The only rumor I've heard about Jan is that by the end of Jan, all poolies through the end of June should be in class. Don't know if that means 1 or 2 classes.....have also heard hiring number of approx 360 next year. Would figure that Meet/Greets would pick up again by beginning of the year. Good luck to all....going to try to wean myself off the FI habit. Thanks again for all the information. It actually helped to have something.

Thanks!

Nice work, GeauxFly.

Thanks for the work keeping track of all the poolies. Who's gonna take over?

See you in MEM. I'll be the one with the silly grin on my face.

Anyone know the January class dates???? Bueller, Bueller????

 

[Falconjet]

Don't think anyone knows, except maybe KD, and probably not even her. Anybody else would just be guessing. When they do start up again after the new year look for week on, week on, 3 weeks off, and then repeat. That is the typical rotation of late.

Anyone heard anything about meet-n-greets starting up? I assume it will be after the first of the year. Been tryin for over a year now. Thanks!

Dec 11 Calls

Calls are still going out (yesterday and today) for the Dec 11 class date. At least 4 of the May 18/19 interview group have gotten the call. Update "pee" test and training package for the Dec 11 class will follow. One call does it all. As said before, 30 slots all SOs. Looks like it will be a "Purple Christmas" after all. Cheers...ExAF

Call for Dec 11th

Got the call from KD yesterday. Dec 11th SO. Interviewed 24/25 May with 3 other poolies. At least 2 of us have received the call for class. Airfish- any calls yet? Anyone know what the routine for training will be during Christmas week?

 

[Falconjet]

Congrats guys.

Guess on Christmas week for those starting on the 11th: Normal classes up until that Fri and then the wknd and Xmas day off, maybe a day or two after that. Then back to salt mines. That is just a guess, maybe some folks who have been in class over the holidays can shed some light on how it worked for them.

Congrats again.

How 'bout the meet&greet rumor? When will they start again? What form will they take?

When I went through training a few years ago with the same setup we had the whole week off during the holidays. I believe X-Mas was on a Sunday and we took basically a week and a half off........from that Thurs till the next Tuesday. Granted that was many years ago.........maybe those guys getting calls can ask KD but I'm sure she can't give a concrete answer.

On the meet&greets I have been told they will start back up in January at the earliest. I am sure we will get an e-mail via VIPS and you'll know within the hour on this website when they'll start up again. Will be interesting to see the protocol this time around..............

Good luck to all the newbies...see you on line soon!! You're gonna love this place!!

 

[JDriver]

Anyone from the 30 May interview date get a call?

Any thoughts on how deep the pool will be emptied since the Dec 11 class has approx 29 or 30 newhires?

 

[geauxfly]

11 Dec schedule

One of the guys in my group called KD about the schedule for the 11 Dec class. Looks like indoc 11-19 Dec, off from 20 Dec to 2 Jan and ground training on 3 Jan. Just passing the info along....

No way?! I can't believe that info about the holiday break. That would be pretty dang cool. I am not counting chips until we make it to the first day of class.
