    §391.21(b)(11) requires that an application for employment contain 10 years of prior employment information on the driver.

    I have been self employed for over twenty years. I started two part time jobs driving last year and all the new company I signed onto needed were some w2s and called the other companies to verify I drove what I stated on the app had a problem with the mom and pop outfit I called them on the phone and they were happy to hear from me put them on speaker phone and she verified what I did plus I had saved all lay stubs.

    Hi! So we would hire you at Keller Trucking. You would really just need to be able to provide contacts who can verify your work history. This would require a phone call, and your driving history would also aid in verifying your driver history and safety, as well.

    How far back does Keller look for a student that has never had a CDL?

    KLLM took me into their “cdl school” with no verifiable employment history; I only had a letter stating I’d been doing family farm work for the last few years and was in “college” before that.

    It says "employment information" not "employment history."

    If you work odds and ends for 3 years, you simply list the job as "self employed" for those 3 years. They don't want a gap of nothing in the past 10 years. Put SOMETHING there.
