About FedEx Freight Entry-Level Dock Opportunities
FedEx Freight dock associate positions are purpose-built as a first step into the commercial freight industry for individuals with no prior logistics experience. New hires receive structured, hands-on training covering freight handling techniques, forklift operation, safety protocols, and LTL terminology — building a professional skill set from the ground up.

- Progress into powered equipment training including sit-down forklift and electric pallet jack certification.
- Learn to read Bills of Lading, identify destination codes, and sort freight into correct outbound dock lanes.
- Practice proper freight stacking, bracing, and trailer loading techniques under trainer guidance.
- Advance toward independent dock assignments as skill proficiency and safety standards are consistently demonstrated.
