Do they drug test in Minnesota? If so what kind of testing is done?

In the Dallas, TX area, yes there is a drug screen for DOT and Non DOT drivers. They send you to Nova Medical center in the Dallas area for urine drug testing and a physical if needed.

No they do not drug test

16 , temporarily 18 on weekday and 21 on weekends to end of may .. That why I want to work for second job

Starting pay depends on location. You will get pay raises every 3 months until your one year mark, then you will get raises every year until you cap out at year 4 or 5, I believe. They often do give cost of living raises, however they declined in frequency the last few years I was there. They do holiday raises, you'll lose them once peak season is over.

Starting pay was $10.35 an hour when I started and is now at $13.74. To the QA guy above, I also got a raise when I got to be QA, but stopped getting raises after that. Package handlers get more raises. I only got one .33 cent raise, for being a QA. I went back to package handling and got 4 raises just for coming back. Staff get percentages after evalution, package handlers get them when they are promised.

I'm not sure if FedEx hires felons, but I recently applied to FedEx express part time courier position. I was interviewed mostly situational questions. I was emailed four days later from the human resource department inferring they needed me to call them concerning my background. I was informed that when anything comes up on a persons background they have to ask them what happened within the case. I explained to her what happened in my 2012 conviction I had for possession of paraphernalia which is a misdemeanor. she explained to me that she has to report this to upper management at corporate and they make the decision of yes or no for the job . Three days later I was called by a fed ex manager and asked to come in and complete a physical and drug test. So to answer ... they do give people chances who made mistakes and I'm thankful for this opportunity.

It’s case by case just be honest depends on if it’s violent theft or drug related and the time frame since conviction and what you’ve done to better yourself since the conviction they wouldn’t be part of ban the box, and ask you in the CBC form if they didn’t hire felons, why waste the screen space if not,
