Can anybody list a trucking company with more than 100 trucks that even accept paper applications? Honestly, I know of none!

We used to get jobs by showering, dressing professionally and actually having a conversation with a prospective employer. I know I’m antiquated but we used to do things on our word and a handshake. Then giving a little personal info and off we went!! I don’t even bother with a resume because most sites require you to fill out their application anyhow.
Switcher, nredfor88, Cattleman84 and 1 other person Thank this. -
If I cant walk through the front door and arrange an interview in person then I dont want to work there. Ive never gotten a meaningful or long term job by submitting an application and/or resume. The few jobs I have gotten by way of application were short term jobs when I was in college. Ive been working pretty much continuously since I was 13 years old.

My very first job was with Halliburton in Hobbs, NM. I walked in, talked to 2 people from HR and recruiting. Got hired to go to school and get my CDL. My next job was with Semcrude, also in Hobbs.. I stopped by because dispatch had p!ssed me off at Halliburton. I was so mad I came into the Semcrude office still wearing dirty Halliburton coveralls... and asked if they were hiring...lol
Hauling crude oil was my favorite job ever as a truck driver.Switcher Thanks this.
