    Hello everyone! I filled in my application on Con-Way Truckload website and they sent me message on my email immediately, it says we received your application and we are evaluating your background and will contact you if your profile matches our needs. Do u guys know how long it takes few days, few weeks or should I just don't wait and send applications to another companies? Does anybody have this experience how long approximately wait for answer? Thank you!

    it could be the next day, it could be weeks, or you may never hear back from them. I wouldnt wait around for them, fill out all the apps you can, trucking isnt like any other career field, your not hired or committed just because you apply. As a new driver you wanna check out ALL your options. Picking your first company is VERY important in trucking, it can and WILL make or break you if you pick the wrong company for you.....

    They should call you within 2 days. My experience is as a student out of school, it might be a bit different if your experienced, if no one gets back to you within that time I would call recruiting. if you dont get an interview on the phone then I would keep looking. Good Luck.

    I had pretty much the same experience as everyone else. Filled it out online on a Saturday or Sunday and had a phone call first thing the following Monday morning. Scheduled for Crowder on Sept 26th. I can't wait!!!

    Thank u guys for info! I'm still waiting for call from them 3rd day already. BTW I have no experience(I have a permit only) and I also want to go thru Crowder college. If they won't hire me I'll probably go with Swift. What's your opinion about Swift?

    Read all you can about Swift. I was set to go with them first until I made sure I was good to go with Conway. You need experience so do your due dilligence on your:biggrin_2558: research. Plenty of info on here to make an informed decission. Regardless Crowder is a good school. Good Luck.
