    I'm in hiring process by Swift. I've called Roehl too (closest terminal on Phoenix) but they don't hire California drivers lol

    Thanks to you and more research I chose Swift ;-)

    You'll do fine with Swift. Nice to know you'll be rolling soon.

    @Pavel.CZ-USA how did it go with Swift? Hopefully good!

    My story:

    I've been told that Swift is VERY strict on work history. I've been unemployed for year and half because my wife died. But I've tried Swift anyways.
    But. They didn't hire me because I wasn't working for a while. I was shocked/surprised. Someone there obviously didn't lost their wife/husband.

    So. Going thorough this post and also I've been recommended Schneider, Western Express and May trucking. I'm North from San Diego city.

    Suggestions? Anyone?

    Their terminal has no parking! I guess it is just an office
