Quick question for FedEx application requirements. I am a former F-16 guy thinking about leaving the Air Force at my 10-year commitment. I have around 1350 total hours and have 2 years of my commitment left. 875 hours are F-16 PIC hours and 115 are T-38 PIC (currently an IFF instructor) which are all the hours I can count toward the >12,500 GTOW requirement. As a single-seat fighter guy I don’t benefit from SIC time per the FAA definition. Has FedEx ever used a fighter conversion since SIC doesn’t help? Bottom line, based on the requirements, I have to get 1500 PIC (signing for the jet) since I cant log SIC and FedEx doesn’t use total time.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers!

Want to say the true mins to apply are 1000.

And yes, general ROT is an extra .2 or .3 per sortie.

No clue how to “document” that with the new application process, nor whether it would be required to do so. I’d just be prepared to discuss your numbers should you be lucky enough to interview

(or message Albie15/contact an interview prep course since they’ll have the best information/recommendations)

Does anybody know how FedEx notifies you after the interview if you were successful or not? If you were not successful does anybody know what process that is? Email or letter? Thanks!

You’ll get an email if successful. I don’t know about the process if you’re not. Way back in late 2018 it took a week or two to get the Email. As recently as a few months ago it was quicker. Good luck to you.

3 of my buddies that interviewed within the past 4 months all heard back the next day. Seems like they are starting to notify them sooner rather than later.

So did they all 3 get it? I’m guessing they still send out a letter for the tbnt.

One did not get the CJO, I guessing he received an email as well since he got the tbnt the next day. Good luck!

I’ve had friends wait over 2 weeks also, so you never know.

Thank you so much! You’ve been more than helpful!

I know the 1000 TPIC has become a "preferred" hiring requirement, but is this actually the case? I have about 500 hours PIC on a 727 and currently flying a 747 with around 4000 hours total. I'm obviously looking to get in the left seat again ASAP but wondering if the PIC is what's driving a nail in my coffin for now.
