Fed Ex chances?
I'm getting close to the 1000 PIC multi-jet time and am excited about applying. I've got a couple contacts at UPS, but none at Fed Ex. Can anyone answer what the chances are at Fed Ex with no internal contacts? Thanks.

No contacts? Lots of dudes with recommendations and sponsors with WAY more than 1000 hrs PIC time and experience are in front of you with their apps in. Get yours in and start networking.

They try not to but you got to remember...IT'S MEMPHIS, TN. The south is still very much alive and the ol school boys network is always in affect.
If you meet the min's than you got a shot but your sponsor and LOR can make the difference between winning the Power Ball lottery or the church raffle...know what I mean.
