FedEx : Show up with a FAA First Class Medical, and have one to apply.

The UPS interview medical is a standard class I medical. No surprises or gotcha's thrown your way. Recent interviewees might have more to add...

Default Start running.....

At FedEx the second half of the second day, right after the sim, you have to go get into your PT gear and run a sub 5 minute mile while the guys in the crew lounge on the day hub turn cheer you on. At least that's what I did.....

I have seen some FedEx pilots that I don't think could run a sub 5 minute 100 yards with the wind.
