I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at FedEx (Anaheim, CA) in Apr 2011
Interview
First I did a sort observation. Then I spoke with a few of my potential fellow managers. Then I spoke with my potential supervisor. Then I spoke with the Senior Manager. Then I had to come back again to interview with the Managing Director. About a month later I was an Operations Manager at FedEx.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you made a mistake and what did you do
They use the "STAR" method of interviewing where you respond to behavioral interview questions. You respond by “showing” the hiring manager how you’d handle a situation using examples with a clear beginning, middle, and end for the scenario you present. The acronym STAR stands for –– situation, task, action, result.

Question 1
They usually start with “Tell me about a time when…”
One interview two people about 2/3 hours. I’m not for sure to what else to put because it really was not that hard. They don’t really ask questions about anything that is hard.
