If it were me sitting in a driving school, listening to recruiters, my first question to them would be "Have you actually driven for this company that you are representing, or are you just a sales puppet for them who has never even sat in the left seat of an 18 wheeler? If not, have you ever driven a big rig, or just read about it?"

I would ask this in a respectfull manor, but still press them for qualifying backgrounds to back it al up.

I'd have ZERO respect for a "recruiter", who has never ever driven OTR, much less who could not drive a Toyota Tercel w/ a manual transmision and figgure out how to successfully spin the tires on wet ice..

I offer my angle on this, and liken it to back in the day when military officers came to your high school and gave a presentation offering the opportunities, while having the personal credentials and experience to back it up, as opposed to some woman who has read all about it, and thus "knows all"

They can BS the fans, but not the players.

Just for the record, I have never been with TMC. I have no opinion on them, be it good, bad, or indifferent. My comments are aimed soley toward the UNGODLY amount of people in the trucking sector who have never driven, but have their fingers in the community pie.

Just my old school opinion. Probably not worth much these days LOL....(grins)

Hey, good luck!

Anybody that is worried about percentage at TMC if you don't already know you can also be paid by the mile, and even their mileage program is pretty much the most competitive if you're a new driver directly out of school.

I believe it's .39CPM, not counting a half a cent safety bonus, and another half a cent fuel, and a few other bonuses. There are new drivers with us making .41 CPM. Personally i've always made more percentage, but if your the type that worries alot the option is there for you, and you don't have to worry about what the load is paying, you will get the same amount regardless.

Just a thought for anyone reading this.

If you are referring to TMC, that may be true. But Maverick said they hire women, but the total # of female drivers company wide can be counted with both fingers.
