Seniority in class based on last 4 of social.
9999 being most senior, 0000 being least senior.

Does anyone know if FedEx normally attends OBAP? If so do they do one and one's and resume reviews with people? Does FedEx give points for talking to them at job fairs like this? I'm looking at going to OBAP specifically to talk to FedEx.

I went to OBAP two years ago and they were there. And I talked with the recruiting team while everyone was standing in the long lines to talk with DL,UAL,AA...etc. Since my TPIC was only at a few hundred hours at the time they gave me a bunch of great advice to make sure I was more competitive when I hit that magical 1,000-1500hr mark. I did exactly what they said. And with a little luck I got the call to interview when I hit the flight time mark. So long story short I think it was worth going.

However, I commuted for 13 years and with just a tad of seniority that wasnt a bad life. There are also advantages to keeping work life and home life in separate orbits. My advice for new hires is dont do anything for a year, THEN make your call. You do not have to live in Memphis to make Fedex a great job.
