A few folks at Wednesday night GTG's have asked about getting some hours at FedEx.

I thought I'd post the info here for anyone interested.

Part Time Handlers and Couriers
Starting wage: $11.18-$13.99/hr

Minimum Qualifications

18 year of age (21 for Courier positions)High School Diploma / GED
Ability to lift 75lbs.
Courier applicants must meet additional requirements.

If you can get on as Permanent Part-Time it also provides excellent benefits. This is easy to do as a Courier but seems harder as a handler. At my station in Plano, they tend to hire on handlers as Casuals which doesn't include benefits but other stations may be different.

Benefits

Tuition Reimbursement Program
Paid Holidays and Vacations
"Jumpseat" Priviledges & Travel Discounts
Career Advancement
Medical/Dental/Vision Insurance
Profit Sharing
401K, Pension and Stock Purchase Program
Discount Shipping
Employee Assistance Programs

I've been with FedEx for 2+ years and it has worked out really well for me. Not too many places offer so much to part-time employees. The insurance especially kicks ass!
