Interviewed Feb 2011 in Memphis, TN (took a day)
I received a phone screening interview first. Then I got invited to an on-site interview. The on-site interview was a panel interview. It lasted roughly 45 minutes to an hour. It was a standard behavior interview. There were some questions related to my technical skills and customer service experience. The last question is “why should we hire you?”. They said they would let me know the interview result within a couple of two weeks. Sent a follow-up email and didn’t get a response. Three month passed by, the job posting was still on FedEx’s website.

Interviewed Dec 2011 in Dallas, TX (took 2 weeks)
This interview process is BRUTAL! First of all this is an entry level position and FedEx acts like you are interviewing for NASA. The first step is a webinar that describes the position and everything that fedex expects from their employees. This process lasts about an hour. After that, they will email you a "Prove it " test- basically if you arent fresh out of College, get ready for 3 hours of critical thinking. Then "if" they call you, they will set you up with a one on one interview with a manager. If you get passed that they will invite you to the third interview where you will have to do a 10 minute power point presentation on a fictitious territory that you plan to grow. After that its a panel style interview process with 5 people throwing numerous questions at you. Very very hard. I have a Masters Degree and 5 years sales experience. I nailed the interview, but no offer was extended. Perplexed by this.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 4 weeks)
First your have a phone interview which they call a phone screening. Next is the 45 min webinar followed by a grueling 150 question online assessment. The assessment consist of 50 personality questions, 50 Iq questions and 50 sales related questions. Next is a 1 on 1 interview followed by a panel interview that consist of behavioral questions and a powerpoint sales presentation. I personally have 8 years of inside and outside sales experience, 3 collegiate degrees including a bachelors degree, and had 5 employee referrals. I was a small business owner and currently work for Fedex and still was not offered a position. So my advise to all who may apply, you better be a sales superstar because they are extremely selective.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Springfield, MO (took 1+ week)
The first interview was given by two lower-level managers, very conversational and easy going. There was a "back and forth" methodology used and the questions ranged from background to behavioural. The team was very thorough, friendly and left no questions unanswered.
The second interviews was given by an upper lever manager and began with a tour of the facility and ended with a casual rehashing of information shared in the prior interview.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 3 weeks)
The interview process was relatively painless. The skills test was a grueling 150 question test. It involved algebra and other math that I'd forgotten. It also involved questions that challenged the thought processes and included personality determination questions.
Creating a sales presentation based on the provided excel spreadsheet was quite the challenge. Especially when creativity was an essential ingredient.
Whatever the requirements, working for FedEx is worth the effort because of the work environment and the potential for advancement.

Interview was with a current Supply Chain Supervisor who was there on site and his supervisor over the phone. Interview consisted of general questions and then a Behavioral Test. The interview went well and was told I would hear one way or the other on a decision - never did hear back from them.

Interviewed Aug 2011 in Memphis, TN (took 4+ weeks)
Contacted by a recruiter to verify some information, then told to expect a call from the hiring manager. Received a call and email by an assistant same day to schedule an interview. After interview was scheduled, I received an email from the hiring manager explaining a presentation they would like me to prepare at the interview.
Contacted by someone from the same department prior to the interview that said she would be my host. She also provided some information about the interview process and what type of questions to expect.
Arrived at interview and met by host. Taken to conference room to meet panel. Started with presentation first, then asked 5-6 behavioral questions. They took very thorough notes and asked follow-up questions. After their questions, I was given an opportunity to ask any questions I had.
Hiring manager emailed and asked me to send references and set up phone interview time. Phone interview took 1 hour. Notified about 1 week later that internal candidate had been hired.
