Interviewed Sep 2009 (took 3 days)

The people I interviewed with were very professional. They asked if I had any questions both before and after the interview. They wanted specific examples of situations you've had to deal with, and how you dealt with them, be very specific. The questions weren't really all that difficult, just designed to see what you would do in "every day" circumstances dealing with the public, no trick questions. They want all your employment and residence history for the last 10 years. Be prepared with your info (I was), they were serious about that. I also had to undergo a pretty thorough background check, no surprises there. The interview panel writes notes at a furious pace as your answering the questions. Not much interaction once the panel asks the questions. When the interview was over, it's the old "we'll be in touch" thing. It was several weeks before I heard anything back. Bottom line, FedEx is a first-class organization based on my experience with people who work there, and my research on the company. They did not choose me for the job, even though I thought everything went pretty well. My background is also very clean. I still highly recommend them though.

Interviewed Jun 2008 (took 3 days)

The first phone interview is about what I have done in the past. Then I was asked to evaluate my skills on different aspect by grading from 1 to 5. The second phone interview is about the detailed programming questions. The onsite interview is starting with HR for behavior questions, then group manager for similar questions and then the director for some brain teasers and technique questions.

Interviewed May 2009 in Calgary, AB (Canada) (took 2 weeks)

It wasn't much of an interview actually. I was applying for a part-time NIGHT position so I went in and the all the interviewer did was ask me a few basic questions and then proceeded to give me the background of FedEx and that this position was physically demanding, which I was okay with. She then proceeded to take me on a tour of the warehouse which lasted approx. 30 mins. What a waste of time!! I think she felt that I was going to quit after because I was a student. She was basically implying this. Why bother to call me in then? I was clearly listed on my resume that I was enrolled in post-secondary and that I applied for this out of convenience for the hours. I thought that's what they wanted. Anyways I strongly felt that I did a good job for the interview and I was qualified for the work. I also felt that my time was wasted by going through this tour. Please save that for after you hire someone because it's a waste of my time and YOUR productivity.

Interviewed Dec 2007 in Lewisberry, PA (took a day)

It was pretty basic interview... Do you have a pulse?, Can you lift 50lbs or more unassisted?, Why do you want to work here?, Describe a challenge you have faced in the past?

The Human Recorce people are pretty friendly, take you on a tour of the hub, then you go back and apply for the job on their computers, and after all that they give you an interview. The human recorces people don't really do any actual package handling and don't have a good grasp of who is going to last or actually be able to perform the jobs.
