Nope...it took me 14 years from my first college class to my bachelors degree. I told them I paid for all my flight training out of pocket, then paid cash for my degree as a went along vs taking out loans. They seemed to think that wasn’t a half bad idea.

Little more than a year ago.

How do they notify you of an interview? I'm guessing email, but want to make sure.

How often do they send out interview invites? How many days per month is FDX interviewing?

Thanks for any intel.

Yes, via email.

How often the invites go out I’m not sure of, nor do I think it’s a salient point? As a norm they interview every Monday and Tuesday (each of those is a 2 day process.)

I’m sure at some point major holidays interrupt that schedule.
