Why did TMC turn you down?

Not sure. They didn't tell me the reason.
I don't have anything on my driving record and I don't drink or use drugs.
Could be something on my medical history, but I really don't know. -
Also thinking of Covenant (got a pre-hire with them).
I'm most interested in how well these companies treat their drivers and hometime. -
Most of these "Bottom Feeders" treat their drivers like cattle (If they treat them that well)
Home time in your first year with any of them will be...Not good. -
go with Rohel.........
they are family owned and operated, and they DO get you home...........and the pay scale is good too. -
I'm not a truck driver, I'm actively applying for companies just like you. So I can only give my opinion based on the reading I've done of companies. Roehl is really the only good company you've listed. I have not read a lot of good things about US Xpress, Werner, and I certainly would not encourage you to apply with Covenant unless you have a criminal background or poor driving record.
Without knowing where you are located, here are some of the more reputable companies I know of:
Schneider
Shaffer
Watkins & Shepard
Roehl
Crete (part of Shaffer)
Hunt (part of Shaffer)
These are companies I've heard about by word of mouth, read about, and all of which I have personally applied to. So I'm providing you with this advice not only based on what I've read, but based on what I sincerely believe. I'm actively pursuing employment with all of these companies.lupe Thanks this. -
Hey rerun, Just wondering....You have been a member since 06......but you just made your 1st two post???
-
geez............i guess so......huh............??
i sign up for message boards, then i forget them...........
but then i get "busy" with one or two............
been a driver for 20+ years now, and my current occupation is that of a truck driver instructor, for the past 2 years now. this is why i recommended Rohel.......and we DO NOT get kick backs for sending anyone students............like i just read in another posting some-where's here
