Do they have a preference or requirement that the job be with Fedex Express or could you have a position with Fedex Ground, or Freight, or even Fedex Kinko's?
And last, is a two year aviation degree a no-go/deal breaker?
I'm an about to be out of work 13 year DC-8 FO at DHL/Astar with the usual ratings and hours expected from that job and I'm looking at a part time job loading trucks for Fedex Ground while flying out the last few months of my DHL career.
Thanks

Here is what I believe to be true regarding your questions:
Job must be full time with FedEx Express
1 year min time before eligible for other jobs
Must meet all qualifications for pilot job. (4 year or equivalent)
You can apply for a Professional IP (teaching line pilots), Corp Pilot (flying execs) or Line Pilot. They all have the same interview and if you can transfer to a line pilot job after 3 years if you get the Corp or Pro position.
They have to be hiring or "post" the job to apply.
Sorry to hear about your situation, good luck.
