FedEx Poolie Calls, Fourth Thread

[noreaster]

FlyFedEx,

Any chance on finding out about the 3 possibles from 12/13 Apr...

would make a big difference for the fellas at the end of the month.

 

[FlyFedEx]

noreaster,
Trying to find out from 135Driver over on APC. Had to call myself Poolflyer over there because "FlyFedEx" was already taken! Sorry I don't have more info. I'm still hearing 42 slots in Dec.

Best of luck to all,
FlyFedEx

 

[FlyFedEx]

Just got the word from 135Driver over on APC. Sounds like all 5 got in the pool...

Nov 27th Class?

Has it been confirmed that the Nov 13 class replaced what we were guessing was going to be on the 27th? There were a couple guys that had mentioned intel that there would be a Nov 27, and then all the sudden a Nov 13 callout started happening. A Nov 27 class would only be a week prior to the Dec 4, but they did the same thing between Sep 25th and Oct 2.

Three more classes would drain the pool by the end of the year! If there were to be a Nov 27 class, calls would go out starting around Nov 6.

I don't think there was intel about a 27 Nov class. I think we were trying to call the shots when we didn't know anything else. That's why it's a crack habit!!! Truth is, none of us really know what is happening until it does. Although, we're done for Nov and 2 classes in Dec as per inside info.

For what it's worth.

I'm with ya dude

 

[wannaBrich]

One of my buds on property heard it was going to start on the 27th. Starting at the anticipated 3 weeks after the Oct 30th class would have been Thanksgiving week. He also confirmed 2 classes in December.

Let's keep the info flowing!

I suppose this is where I read the 27th rumor. Oh well. Can we still have some hope? Just for fun maybe?

 

[FlyFedEx]

I'm all for a new class every week!!

The dude that told me Nov 27 as the only November class date said he was surprised that it changed to Nov 13. Only the inside (really inside) folks know for sure. For what it's worth, my current answer to friends/family when asked if I have a training date is:

I won't know until I do...

One thing is for sure, this company is completely worth the wait!! I have friends at several other airlines who were all completely thrilled when I told them I was in the FedEx pool.

Keep the faith Amigos...we will all be working for a Global company with a stock price > $100 and a growth rate > 20% soon!!

New Class Today

Congrats to the new class starting today!! Any good rumors on class sizes and remaining classes in the year (Dec in particular)?

[FlyFedEx]

23 started today...

planned 24 for Oct 30

planned 14 for Nov 13

planned total of 42 for Dec (classes on 4th & 11th)

Note the liberal use of the word "planned"

Good luck to us all!!

 

[geauxfly]

Keeping my fingers crossed for the 11 Dec class....figure you (FlyFedex) and mid-Apr groups to get call in the next 2 weeks (for 4 Dec class). From earlier posts, it looks like most of mid-Apr has already been called recently to update p test.

 

[FlyFedEx]

Rog.

Hope they add more slots and get as many out of the pool (or at least telephoned out) as soon as possible.

 

[PastV1]

For the poolies. I have a pad available in Southaven. KD can vouch for me. PM if your interested. Your OWN bed Wireless, freeweights, 10-12 mins from the 11 bldg or the democrat lot. 2 spots available.

There are a bunch of crash pads available. Going rates are up to 250 max to share a room(with own bed). If paying more than that you should have a private room. Congrats everyone getting the call! No longer LOA

 

[noreaster]

from APF...Lawless

Just started class Monday, 23 Oct. Next class will be in on Monday, 30 Oct. KD told us the pool through the June Interview dates will be drained by the end of January. Classes will slow during peak, as will interviews. Post peak, the game is on... lots of interviews and class dates. Looking for about 360 new hires for '07 to include additional MD and 72 new hire F/O's according to numerous management types. Just for grins, the caboose is Line# 4780 until Monday, then we will eclipse 4800.

 

[geauxfly]

Dec class(es??)

The latest rumors I've heard is 2 classes in December. Can anyone provide any more clarity on that in light of Noreaster's post. Does slow down during peak equal 1 class in Dec? Inquiring minds want to know.....

 

[JDriver]

Hopefully the guys that started today can bring some new info to this thread.

 

[FlyFedEx]

24 started today...

Other than the internal hires, that brings the total out of the pool (since the first class on 22 May) to 216.

14 are supposed to start on 13 Nov. That means total out of the pool (in two weeks) will be 230.

Hopefully the phones will start ringing this week or next!!!!!!

 

[geauxfly]

New Class Today

My bud was in the class today.....9 F/O slots, 15 S/O slots with some training to be done off site (about half of each position). According to training dept, should be 2 classes in Dec....good news for April/early May interview groups. Good luck and hopefully, class calls and p test calls for some in the next 2 weeks.

How long is training?

I know this is posted somewhere, but I'm really lazy.

How long is indoc and FO/SO training on the 3 holer?

[Falconjet]

The guys who started on Oct 23rd are due to activate on Jan 6th according to the training letter. 10-11 weeks, probably slowed down a little due to peak.

Normally about 10 weeks to complete IOE and activate, then you get 7 days off. Then its to the line for you, A reserve most likely.

[FlyFedEx]

Got THE call from KD!!!!!

Start date is 4 Dec. She said 12 SO Memphis slots in the class.

Thank you to all my flightinfo brothers/sisters...it would have been so much harder without our ragtag, quasi-intel, WAG network to lean on!!

Keep holding those pool letters out of the water...YOU will get the call too!

 

[Pool is Cool]

KD called this AM Dec. 4th F/E 12 in class.

 

[geauxfly]

FlyFedEx....how many total in the class for 4 Dec?? Is it 12 total in the class or is that just how many will be trained in Memphis? Anyone else getting the call, could you ask how big the total class will be?

PoolIsCool....do you know how many got the call in your interview group?? Hopefully, all 10.

CONGRATS to you both!!!
