Got a snag looking for my first driving job.

Schneider also runs lots of regional and dedicated routes, depending on your location.

No comment on anything else as I'm just a 'wannabe' w/ no experience, just lots of research.

Goodluck!

 

From what I've read, this company will hire you; it's a coast to coast company.

They only go back 10 yrs unless your applying for a hazmat endorsment or TWIC.

 

Yep, Schneider seems more concerned about things that might actually be a problem, rather than minor BS things that occurred during the last millennium. They're also self insured, so that helps too. My recruiter almost sounded like she was snickering because I was being so honest about dumb stuff .. Almost like they had to ask.

 

No we are not leading him the wrong way ,read what he is asking us , he was a kid minor possession fine , and a non DOT drug screen so we have no clue what that was for but if its a state thing where for probation he failed a piss test then its in no way gonna be on a employers radar , they only look at your CDL History of pre employ and ransoms , I ran a big dispatch team , in Trans Dept of local huge Grocery Haulers , that's what they look to , unless they require more than ten years I would not give up that info only give them exactly what they ask for , you do not ever divulge information that they don't need to know. You remember it's a job , the more the see they know about you us , then some bozo will make it mandatory at some point to list your whole life , dude don't worry , be confident it's a job there is more of them , remember there is a shortage of Drivers , don't forget that , where a company wants experience , new guys are in demand !

LOL @ shortage of drivers? There is no shortage, and new guys are only in demand because they are paid at the bottom of the pay scale.

My Post:

Is there really a shortage of truck drivers with all the unemployment there in the U.S.A.??

I ask only because I have come across truck drivers with CLEAN DRIVING RECORDS, CLEAN PHYSICALS, & NO ALCOHOL OR DRUGS IN THEIR SYSTEMS, who are having a hard time find a job driving over the road, (OTR).

Please advise on this.

God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

 

Should be answered "I have never failed a DOT drug screen, sir. (ma'am)" nonchalantly, of course.

 

What there is a shortage of is decent companies. I guess they just refuse to work for scraps, but since the newbies will. They will continue to look. Also maybe they are job hoppers. Once upon a time it was no problem. These days people are wanting those who have a stable work history. Older drivers don't want the E logs and Fuel routing that lots of companies are going to. So they look for other employment.
