No I am not how about leaving a employee’s name out of the discussion, who btw is not in management and tries to help everyone. This is a great way to never get any information passed to you!

Have had my app in a while and made some progress after a hiring fair and a couple phone calls from a recruiter. Was told everything looked good and let the system play out (PE on file for about 6 months now)
A friend of mine who knew said recruiter called to check up on things and was told my app us hung up because it says I have 3 part 91 checkride failures on my app and is throwing a red flag. I've never flown 91 and don't have any professional/for hire failures in my career. Double checked triple checked my app as well as 2 other fedex employees and we can't find any errors.
Any thoughts or suggestions? Sounds like an error on the fedex side of things but I hope I'm wrong.

I never served in the Navy - or any other military branch - and never indicated that I did on my application.
It was 100% an error within the application system that created the failure out of thin air. They couldn’t figure out why it was there, but it was. Who knows how many years of seniority that cost me. Point is, if you have been made aware of this error now, see what you can do to fix it. The system is not perfect.

Fedex has never furloughed, correct me if i'm wrong, but this recession is going to be severe. I will say it again, FX was first out of the gate to announce but they are definitely a proxy for the broader economy so please get your houses in order folks. Better to be safe than sorry.
Better get your cash flow needs down from $30k/month to “something lower.” Funny to me, the FedEx pilot problem. Talk about out of touch. Not wrong though, just gross.
As others have said here, it sounds like ground is the real problem. If this recession is deep enough then no division will be spared and there certainly could be furloughs.
Express is really the brand, which is why your CEO was so quickly dismissive.

When I interviewed, during the HR portion one of the interviewers asked me about a failure that was flagged on their printout of my application. He showed it to me and it indicated that I had busted a UPT checkride during my Naval training.

I put in the explanation of my other old part 61 failures, my total checkride failures and that I've had zero professional failures. Someone will have to actually pull it and look at it to see that. My friend is in touch with the recruiter so we'll see what happens. Thanks for your input

recommend you get someone in company to ask their fleet captain to look you up in system and check for any red flags. I’ve done that before and found weird stuff (like PIC time wasn’t assigned to an aircraft so showed as zero). Not sure how fleet captains respond right now but it’s worked in past.

I would look at the failures in your training and see the number matches with the number of flags.
