Hello. I've been a long time lurker and have enjoyed the discussions here over the years. Haven't really had anything worth mentioning before but, I have been following this thread and wanted to share my experience with the 24 month FEX Written currency issue. I came from a 121 carrier that had three man crews. Before starting my profile when the window first opened in the beginning of this year, I called my sponsor to question the validity of my FEX written since it had expired in 2009 and wasn't sure if I was covered under the FAR guidelines of expiration. He felt like I would be covered and didn't see the need to retake it. I filled out the inital questionaire saying yes to a current FEX written. In the profile it asks for an expiration date which I inserted current, due to FAR guidlines, ie 121 carrier status. A few days after completing the profile I decided to re-take the FEX so there wouldn't be any question to the currency of the test. After recieving a job offer I was asked if I had taken a FEX written prior to submitting a profile. I said yes and faxed the expired results to HR. During BI O came in to our class and wanted us to convey to our guys and gals that if folks put that they had a current FEX while filling out the questionaire and come to find out that the candidate actually had an examination date after the inital profile date, then don't expect to get a phone call. More importantly, if some folks slipped through the cracks and are discovered at a later date they would be fired! I explained my story to O in front of the class so there wouldn't be any misgivings about my situation. O said that in the very beginning there was some confusion on the validity of the FAR interpetation, which was during the time I set up my profile, but he said that they have updated the website, since I've been hired, around the middle of June, to make it very specific as to what FEDEX is looking for now. So, if you were like me and got the the advice I recieved, it would behove you to go and take the test and update your profile. You might have some explaining to do, but do to the confusion early on I would think you would be OK. If you straight up answered yes to having a current FEX and weren't at a 121 carrier, unlike my situation, or took the FEX after filling out the profile I wouldn't go to the interview. Like others have wisely mentioned, they view it as lying if you don't have a FEX written within the 24 months period. Sorry to be so long winded for a first post. I just want everyone to be successful!!!
