add me to the MD11 type, as well as 747, A320 and 4 others, 6000TT+ 121 PIC etc... group who DIDN'T GET A CALL... on top of that I'm now furloughed from a cargo 747 company.
Reason why? I'm 99% sure it's that lack of internal sponsor... On the one hand I understand the desire for an internal rec, and on the other hand I find it to be a horrible reality.

As stated previously, the influence of a sponsor at FedEx is much less important than it used to be. I attended the briefing on our new hiring process and from what I heard I would guess that you would be considered "overqualified." They mentioned a "sweetspot" of TT (Sorry I don't remember the numbers if they were given) along with the comment that "high PIC hours are a predictor of poor performance."

Flight hours (apparently there is a statistical “sweet spot” of 1,200 to 6,000 for total time and 500 to 5,000 for PIC; jet time is preferred but lack of will not exclude candidates that score high in other factors)

Last I checked I am still black and yes I am from Rhodesia.... now Zimbabwe!!! Never used the color of my appearance to get hired anywhere. if my qualification does not get me in then i don't deserve the job..

Not completely, but mostly useless as there are only two operators in the world that use it and require the type.
