Be forewarned getting hired at UPS is an arduous process, you usually have multiple interviews and I believe they intitially give you a phone interview....

Ups continues to grow, SDF hub under another major expansion and projected Intl growth. Due to new lines being added for this years bid (april2007), 3 assistant dsipactchers are being upgraded. Can only speak for my experience, but one interview (panel of three) and one on-line personality assessment.

I would love to work for UPS or Fedex....that is like my dream job....I just NEVER see postings for them hiring dispatchers. I have heard for UPS at least you have to already work for the company sorting boxes or something first. I work with a guy who used to sort boxes for them back in high school, and he is thinking that could be his way in to their dispatch center....anyone have an inside information on this?

fedex does NOT hire externally. your best shot at fedex is to start throwing boxes somewhere. after 6-12 months you can bid on jobs. there are usually a few job openings every year. 1 of the guys that was just hired is 25 and has less than a year of dispatch experience.

.....fedex

maybe throwing boxes is the way to go...part time at least....I don't think you have to work for UPS to get on with them.
