so what do you think competitive times/experience will be to get hired on??
From what I've seen over the years, the 'competitive mins' thing tends to be garbage at major airlines. It does seem to be fairly accurate for national/smaller carriers and some regionals, but in general majors seem to hire across a wide spectrum of time/experience with networking being a big factor. As I recall the competitive mins idea was pushed heavily by Air Inc and is something that is often looked at closely by prospective employees or around the water cooler at a given airline, but not really meaning much in the end. While we still know nothing about what the process will entail at FDX going forward, looking at our history I would expect that sponsors/employee recs are still going to be more important than competitive mins. We have a pretty wide range of experience at hire around here, and I would expect that would continue.

Due to 'last minute modifications.'

More time to get that FE written done.
When it opens, will this be the site?

Thanks

"Due to some last minute modifications to the web site, I am delaying the
opening until 24 January, 0601Z. I am sure that everybody recognizes
the importance of getting this process right from the beginning.

...everybody NOT involved on the IT side that is! Those clowns rarely get anything up and running on schedule. C'mon, last minute mods need a whole week to incorporate? Wait a sec, maybe the IT folks aren't alone? Perhaps the circus tent is bigger? IT, O, and PC -- a complete three-ringed act?

All joking aside though, good luck to all the prospective applicants out there. The pendulum is slowly swinging back, and FedEx is a great place to work!

I don't think it's an IT issue... as I understand it, it's a scum-sucking bottom-feeder issue. And they ALL have to stick their fingers in.

Will the 24th mean that we can sign up for a new profile to apply or does it just mean guys will be able to update and existing profile?

I havn't started a profile yet and wondered how detailed it is? How long will it take to fill out once the system opens?

Thanks.

If you don't have the FE written current in the last 24 months, regardless of 121 employment, you will not make it through the computerized filter to be looked at later.

Lots of threads going with guys whining about this. It is the way it is. So just go through the hoops like everyone else and get it done.

Yep, the lawyers didn't like some of the questions or wording and didn't approve it. They have to start some of the process over to accommodate them. That's the word on the street...

Wonder why we waited until the 15th to have the lawyers look at it. I'd like to think that if the deadline was the 15th, that the lawyers would have looked at it in time for our "outside vendor" to implement their requested changes. That's the way I'd do it at least, but I have no special skills
