FedEx Poolie Calls, Fourth Thread

[iaflyer]

Started today. Class make-up: 17 total; 12 USAF, 3 USN, 2 USMC.

And people were saying Fedex hires civilian guys...

I'm beginning to think that there will not be a class the first week of Sep. Nobody seems to have gotten a call either today or yesterday. Maybe Labor Day pushed the next class to the 11th. Any thoughts.........

With a new hire class yesterday and today, I am thinking that the pilot recruitment people might be busy with work associated with the processing of 2 new hire classes in two days.

There is still plenty of time for calls to come out in the next few days for a class somewhere around the Labor Day time frame.

Hope the next round of calls from MEM begin soon.

Good point, you could be right. They are probably pretty busy. Maybe the phones will start ringing again tomorrow.

Some of those guys hired in the last 2 classes had 121 time at other airlines...this was a group hired to potentially go straight to right seat of wide body. The classes with a higher number of regional guys will be showing up in the coming weeks. There may be some exceptions, but I don't think there will be a LOT of RJ direct to MD11 guys. Although I can think of some exceptions (Cujo!) most of the guys going to the MD11 VFR direct have some big jet or major airline stink on them. Several of those guys hired from C130 units actually flew for DAL or AAL then went back full time on orders after 9/11. Again--the "pure civilian" types will be rolling into the F/O and S/O 727 slots in larger numbers.

Do we know what days guys interviewed in Jan, after 25/26 Jan? And how many? Has anyone been called for Sep 11 class that interviewed after that date. I don't think we've had too many guys on this forum from the end of Jan.

I have not heard a thing from the people in my interview group. Again, I know there were two groups of 6 on the 24th and the 25th. I think there was also a group on the 23rd, but I am not positive.

I was suprised that they called so far in advance, I was thinking they would call next week for a Sept. 11 class.

Take care!

 

[Malter1]

Is there a 26/27 Jan group or was the last one for the week 25/26?

 

[XJguy]

I don't think there was a Jan. 26 group, but I am not positive.

Has anyone else been called for the Sept. 11 class?

 

[FeelinMinnesota]

Got the call from KD this morning. Time to start kicking towards the shallow end. Interviewed 30-31 Jan and the other 3 remaining in the group also got the call. Looking forward to the drive south to Mem. See ya there.......
