I have one recommendation at FedEx, but apparently that isn't enough to get an interview. I have heard that this may be a reasonable way to get through the door.
Any information on salary, weblinks, contacts, etc. would be appreciated.
RM,
Here is the scoop. There are three positions as "Pro Instructors" at FedEx.
1. Systems Instructor (Classroom)
2. Procedures Instructor (FTD)
3. Maneuvers Instructor (Sim)
You would be interviewed based on your experience and qualifications.
Doesn't sound like you are interested in a "line position" If so, apply for the pilot job. If the window is closed, wait a weeks, it will open again. We occasionally put out postings for "Pro Instructors". The contract is for two years and the salary is based on which position you are placed.
Here was the posting from the latest FCIF
We are once again posting externally for Professional Instructors in the
Flight Training Department. Many of you have contacted us recently to
inquire on behalf of friends and colleagues, so this FCIF is published to
again ask for your help in publicizing these openings.
A bachelor's degree is still preferred, but there is also a
provision to give credit for degree equivalency based on previous
instructor experience in formal training programs approved under Part 61,
135, 141 and 142.
We have openings for three levels of instructors, including both full time
and part time positions:
- Ground School Instructor
- Procedures Instructor
- Maneuvers Instructor
Previous aircraft and instructor experience will determine the instructor
position offered. Prior air carrier experience is considered a plus. A
medical certificate is not required. A more complete list of requirements
is included in the online posting.
If you know qualified individuals interested in joining the FedEx team,
please provide the following information to them. Candidates may apply
for any or all positions. There are opportunities in each aircraft
training program. Applications must be made online and submitted by
midnight CST Friday, August 12, 2011.
