Swift Transportation - What The Recruiter Didn't Tell You

with Hazmat and doubles and triples endorsements, I also went thru the D.O.T. BACKGROUND CHECK, AND HAVE A CURRENT MEDICAL CARD, SO CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHY I CANT GET HIRED?!!

 

You're a myopic?

 

@MysticHZ LOL, NO I CAN SEE PERFECTLY, I JUST HATE TYPING!!

 

Are empty miles paid at the same rate as loaded mile for company drivers?

 

Not to speak for Mystic but I assume he wasn't referring to your eyesight. You've definitely got some things working against you, friend. Most companies, even mega carriers, aren't going to to touch you for all the reasons that are in bold in his reply. Can't see the forest for the trees and what not...

 

yes, (this part is to fulfil the 10 character requirement)

 

You cant find out until you try..they may give you a chance but may also require you to go through their training also if your driving experience cant be verified..Only way to find out is to try and see..

 

Thanks, LadyTrucker! But the thing is that's all I need is a chance, but I have applied to over 20 companies, and they all keep sayin the same thing. A recruiter from CRETE was going to hire me, but she said that the manager from AAA COOPER, would not verify that I was a driver in training, and that he told her that I was just a dockworker, but I've driven over 17,000 miles in and out of state, but this guy won't verify that, and he's the one that approved me to go and use a company tractor, and get my license in. I'm not asking for a handout because I've been working since 9th grade after school, I just need a job and what I don't need is another suspension on my license for failure to make my child support payments due to this job loss! I have a current CDL Class A license with Hazmat and doubles and triples endorsements, with no points or accidents, and I have a current medical card, and I had the D.O.T. physical done, with 8 months driving experience, and there's not one company with all the open positions that doesn't need a responsible, hard working driver?!!

 

It can help to find out what your references are saying. Have someone you know call them as an employer interested in hiring you. That info will help you and you can go from there. It doesn't do any good to tell a potential employer that you did a certain type of work, then when they call to verify it they're told something else.

 

Ok so I'm from Maui Hawaii and asked my instructor why I need 1 Gal of Brake fluid when the truck has Air brakes?
He has no clue so neither do I
Please Explain as I am Moving to Phoenix on the 1st of November to work for swift.
Here on Maui we do not have long haul so this must not apply here
