    No, they are swarmed with calls after applying for a job, not after applying for school.

    Drop an app on there as a trainee looking for a job, and you will turn your phone off within an hour.

    Did you apply for Stevens from the website? If not, then do that.

    I would definitely reach out to companies you applied to and are interested in.

    Dutch Maid Logistics does both urine and hair follicle. The number of companies that don't do hair follicle is becoming pretty small.

    I quit recommending that company; the drivers never get back to me on how they're doing there.
     
    WesternPlains, dwells40 and mjd4277 Thank this.

    The only bad things you'll hear about Prime are the same bad things you can experience anywhere else. Most bad experiences in trucking are primarily the lack of due diligence. I started a new job a couple months ago and 3 people left in orientation because they have driver facing cameras in the trucks. Did they not ask the hiring manager anything when they interviewed you over the phone? I can just imagine by their looks and appearance that they just wiped the drool off their chin and said yar I'll be there and gave their wife/sister a kiss and hopped on the bus.
