Well, there is a job opening in my area for the position of a Handler. I have been waiting about a month for this job to be posted as I have someone close to me that has been working for FedEx for 28 years and is now a Supervisor. So, chances of getting the job are pretty good. Just a few questions and would really appreciate it if you could help me out with them.
I have a few questions that I wanted to ask, but I didn't really want to ask him as I didn't want him to feel like I was asking too many questions and/or was skeptical about what he was telling me.
If someone could help me out with a couple responses for these questions, I would really appreciate it!
Thank you Very Much!

I have a few questions that I wanted to ask, but I didn't really want to ask him as I didn't want him to feel like I was asking too many questions and/or was skeptical about what he was telling me.
- The position I applied for is a 6:30 PM ET - 11:00 PM ET shift. I am more interested in working the grave yard shift instead. My question is, how long do I have to wait before I put in a request to be moved to the early morning shift once a position is available.
- I am only 19 years of age, therefore, I am very interested in attending college. I have not been able to further my education thus far as I have ran threw a couple minimum wage jobs since High School. With that being said, this is my first "Career Opportunity" so I am not sure how a big company like this works. Any help on this?
- What responsibilities does a Handler have with FedEx? I seen a preview video of it while applying for the job. But, of course its all scripted. Was wondering what a day in the Handling position really consists of.
- I understand that FedEx does not let lateness/unexcused absentees go over lightly. Which, I completely understand and I do not blame them at all for strongly enforcing this policy. But, what I am trying to get at is, how long to you have to hold the Handler position before you try and do something else. How do raises work?
- I have heard that the hiring process lasts about a month. How true is this? And what does it consist of?
If someone could help me out with a couple responses for these questions, I would really appreciate it!
Thank you Very Much!
