ask your questions about prime inc here

I was wondering if Prime will hire with a Felony (1996)? Just was not sure if anyone knows? Didn't do jail time. That's my only issue, clean DMV.

Thanks

 

Depends on what it's for. I think enough time has passed (if you haven't been in other trouble) for them to not worry about it. Best answer is to call a recruiter and ask.

 

I have some questions,there tanker div. is food grade right? Do you have to have a tanker endorsement? I have 18 monthe t/t experience and 7 months otr in the last year will they hire me as a experience driver? What are there trucks governed at?

 

Yes on food grade. I assume since you are asking about tanker endorsement, that you dont have any experiance in tankers?

As far as I know, we arent hiring or expanding the tanker division. This was as of about 3 weeks ago... hiring requirements and positions change all the time, so a recruiter would know for certain.

How recent is your OTR? for such a short amount of OTR it needs to be recent... as in you are still working OTR now... if you are not currently OTR there is only a small window of opportunity to get hired and not have to go through the full training period of 60k team miles with a trainer...

Recruiter will have all the up to date info.

My Company truck is governed at 63... I dont give them an excuse to turn me down.

If you cant make 6.75 MPG then they turn you down to 58... still no 6.75 they turn you down to 55...

Ive heard that they dont turn the trucks up if it is re-issued.... so if the last guy had his turned down because he wasnt getting the job done (fuel milage) they dont bother turning it back up when they give the truck to the next company driver.

3 weeks in a row below 6.75, with no mechanical issues will either get you re-training, or let go.

 

No tanker endorsment just wondering. Well I took local job in Dec.08 so otr would of ended in 12/08, just trying to back on the road but I think its going to be harder than I thought.

 

Heh! Being an old fart (company-wise) I've got a 65-mph truck!

 

Do you need to lease from Prime to drive for them??

 

No... Prime has both company and lease drivers.

 

if you have past criminal history. it's wise to apply for expungement. just becuase you have a past don't mean you have to keep living with it. expungement. and you wn't have to worry about it anymore. contact your state BCI. it's 10 bucks out here for the record and expungement eligibility.
