    Hello and welcome to the site:)

    In regards to your tickets and what you should put on your application, report everything that is listed on your motor vehicle report (MVR). If they ask for a 10 year MVR, then that is what you provide, no more/or less.

    Best of Luck to You and to Your Success!!!
     
    EricksonR and sandywyo Thank this.

    The application doesn't ask about accidents , only convictions . But their insurance company may turn something up if a claim was put in . I was going to change insurance companies for my POV a few years back and one company wanted to charge me a higher premium because I had had car stolen a couple of years previously .

    Well, If they find you lied, they can fire you! I had a flat tire, clipped a fence on a tight entry. Reported it to my company and When I left there they told a company that I was trying to get hired, that I had a preventable accident and did not get the job!! Be careful with that.

    For archive purposes make sure when you apply to a place that checks dac that you tell them the accident was tire damage and not a real accident. In the real world everyone busts a tire on a tight turn one time.

    So you are not working for them? What is competitive hiring anyway? That must of been really bad to sent home.

    My husband went through orientation and several were sent home with needed paperwork or documentation. Several for "misinformation" on their apps. He did get his truck, after having to get a new social security card, because he had laminated his to keep in one piece. ( not supposed to do that). Worked for several months, never home and did not make any money with them. we were in the hole most weeks. We did NOT have a good experience with this company!:biggrin_25513:

    thanks for the up date. i would go to colton cal. close to me. i was hired with them 3 years ago. had a family member turned out that only had a little while to live so i needed to be with them. i do hope to get back on with them. i liked what i saw. there was a lot of sit time then also. hope it isn't that bad now. they keep sending me information on decated runs. so did you get called back at all? or are they even taken new hires. do you know if they are taken solo or only teams? good luck
