Transforce are liars - Do not trust company!!!

WOW!! I'm in the process of going to work for them!Like you quit my old job, as this seemed like a sure thing.Supposed to get subcontracted to Penske or Ryder>

 

18 mos ago or so, I applied to Transforce in Indy. A few days later I called, and the guy said get your MVR cleaned up, and re-apply. I told him he must have me mixed up with someone else. He just repeated himself and hung up.
Now, I knew there was nothing on my MVR, because I had stopped at the DMV on the way to Transforce. Why? Because THEY told me to!
So, I decided if he can't keep my file straight, I doubt he can keep me working. I never called back.

 

They got me awesome job best I ever had,filling out app to get hired full time after only 60 days

 

I also had a good experience with them. I landed an awsome local gig thru Transforce. I got to try out different types of local hauling and found a great company that I really enjoy working for. They also paid a decent hourly rate with o/t for anything over 40 hours and had health insurance.

I got hired on by Blackhorse Carriers after I ran couple of runs for them thru Transforce. I wouldn't have been able to get a foot in the door with them otherwise. They only have 3 drivers at their Chattanooga terminal and one guy quit so they called me because I had made a good impression with the terminal manager and the other drivers when I did the runs for them thru Transforce. Now I work a 5 day week (mon-fri, usually around 50 hours per week) with a set route, home every night and off every weekend and holiday. And I get payed on salary (more than I made most weeks running OTR).

I would recommend Transforce for guys who are in the situation I was in- tired of running OTR but not sure what kind of local work you want to do. It's a god way to try different stuff and find what you like before making a major commitment.

 

That's weird. I've had good experiences with them out of the Stockton California office.

I actually worked for them for three years before I was hired by Penske.

I guess it depends on the location.

 

They are a staffing company ... usually short term staffing temp to hire bs. Its all about numbers to them. They found someone to put in the seat before they vetted you. If one of your previous employers takes to long to respond to employment inquiries they move onto the next application on the pile. Just the nature of who they are.

 

What kind of drug screen they do

 

This job offer, you got it in writing, correct? I mean you didn't just quit you other job based on what a recruiter told you, did you?

 

The kind that you fail if you're a user
