Thank you for your interest regarding our Driver Positions. Please take 15 minutes to read the following information, as it explains the preliminary requirements for employment.
Preliminary Requirements
We use a third party company to screen all applicants to make sure you pass the standards Fedex has set. They will be looking at the following information:
*Note: Previous driving employment means you worked for a company operating either a vehicle they owned such as catering vans or landscaping trucks, delivery services using your own personal vehicle for places like Pizza Hut or providing services like lyft and uber.
**Note: If you do have a charge on your driving record or criminal background it does not automatically disqualify you. Some minor offenses can be overlooked. Often the only way we find out is to fill out the application, and see what their verdict is. There is a hotline if you wish to contest their verdict, for example if a charge had been dropped, or there was an expungement from your record. So if you want to proceed to the application process and try, we can. Just know if they disqualify you, I have no control over it.
These requirements are standard and non-negotiable. If you find them easily met, then feel free to read further to see about our location and service area, job expectations, and employment information.
