New to Prime INC - What to expect (Springfield edition)

I was sweating I couldn't find them for a good 3 hrs

 

That's all she asked for so far. I wonder for they can use tax returns?

 

Good thing I've kept my W-2's from as early as 1995 (when I started my first job), though missing my 2002 W-2

 

Yup asked me for some. That means the employer didn't verify or charged to verify the employment. I used w2s and for the older years just my 1040's

 

I sent in my w-2 for my current job. I haven't heard anything today from my recruiter today. Am going to see if I can use my 1040 for one job I can't find my w2. Trying to get out of my current job. I hate aviation.

 

I showed pay stubs

It's a way to check work history

 

Don't have but for my current job

 

Greetings all! I'm headed to SpriMo next week (11-21-15) for orientation, hoping to connect with others doing the same. After doing my research Prime seems like the place to start my trucking career.

I've wanted to drive OTR for some time, heck what kid didn't? I should point out that at 43 I'm hardly a kid anymore, at least not on the outside. I've finally decided to go for it. I know it won't be easy, and not always sunshine and roses. I look forward to seeing parts of the country I haven't yet been to and meeting some motivated peeps.

I'll be riding the dirty dog into town and looking for a patient mentor. I take this opportunity seriously and want to make the most of it. I have my Mo CDL A permit with hazmat and tanker endorsements, did the TSA finger print and background check (awaiting approval). I have a few days left to get my ducks in a row so to speak. Anything I should be doing to better prepare?

Also wanted to thank all who've contributed here, this really has given me a good idea of what to expect.

One of my concerns is appropriate attire while packing light. It's been mentioned that orientation is effectively a week long interview. However, this needs to be balanced to keep a minimal footprint in my future trainers truck. My plan was to show up with a handful of Carhart T-shirts and maybe a shirt or two with buttons. I hope to make a positive impression while being ready for work. Obviously the holy t-shirts and beer apparel are off my packing list.

Again, a big thanks for all the input.

Sincerely,
TooSlow

 

Sounds like you have your head in the right space already. Good luck.

 

Congrats Too Slow!
