Interviewed Jan 2011 in Memphis, TN (took a day)
The phone interview lasted about 1 hour. First asked about some basic info, such as current immigration status, if H-1B visa is needed, GPA, GRE or GMAT test scores. Then there are about 8 questions, including case studies, such as FedEx wants to expand to South American countries, what should be considered.

Interviewed Apr 2011 (took 3 months)
After applying online, the initial communications were via e-mail for the purpose of scheduling the interview. The interview questions centered around the job duties and my relevant experience and education. I expected a whole slew of tough interview questions; but, there were no off the wall interview questions and only two psychological interview questions. The interviewers were well-prepared, polite and friendly. They seemed to have a good working relationship with one another.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in Memphis, TN (took 3 days)
I started off with a phone interview with a rep from EMC who I guess is like a head hunter of staffing consultant. Pretty basic and he was probably reading from a script. Next he had a company in Denver call me to verify my technical skills. The man introduced himself as a Unix Administrator with 25 years experience. The questions were very tough and I felt like I did OK not great but OK. The EMC rep calls me back and says I did very well. He sets up a phone interview with 4 men from FedEx.
This is where it gets absurd. I get a phone call from a manager at FedEx. He then proceeds to conference in 3 other people. The second guy actually talks for 5 minutes about the fact that he has a medical appointment and will be signing off. 5 minutes later all 4 are on. As the interview goes on I can tell I am talking to 4 men who are probably 40 to 55 years in age. All are probably high level managers that don't really get down into the technical details but they are nonetheless conducting a technical interview on me. About 3 minutes after we start the guy with the medical appointment interrupts to say he is signing off. WOW. He spent a total of eight minutes on the call. Again I can't stress how these companies expect you to be the consummate professional yet they are anything but when they interview you. Back to the "interview". The whole thing is a mess. One guy asks me a question. Another guy starts talking while I am answering. I don't think I answered one question without being interrupted. I really got the impression that these guys were just killing time on the FedEx dime.
EMC rep sends me an email a few days later that states the FedEx guys are going to pass on me.
I want to say that this is a job which has been almost continuously listed on careerbuilder for 2 years now. It is always listed showing the job location as Orlando but when you inquire they actually tell you it is 50/50 between Orlando and Memphis. I also believe that FedEx hires a lot of people on H1-B visas so they are probably sabotaging these interviews with U.S. citizens so they can justify more H1-B workers.

Interviewed Apr 2011 (took 2+ weeks)
I just went through the first round. It was a phone interview last for 1 hour. I submitted my resume through university career center. Here are some questions asked during the interview.
1. conflict with your boss. give an example
2. projects are alwasy postpone twice longer as they expected. What
factors do you think result in this? If you are the project leader,
how will you do to avoid that?
3. The Fedex will introduce a new service 12 pm commitment( previously
have 8am and 5pm commitment) what factors will you consider to
introduce this new service to the market?
4. please compute the annual number of passenger within the US based
on your assumption and finally give a exact number without using
calculator.
The interview is almost based on behavior and quantitative questions. Nothing related to your past experience.
