    Just had an interview with ABF for full time city driver /p&d position. Anybody in the San Jose terminal on these boards ? I'm trying to get some info on the pay scale for this position. Looks like they pay different rates depending on what you do.

    Why didn't you ask about the pay during the interview?

    It was a serious question, they could have told you with 100% accuracy. Here you'll get hearsay at best. When I go in for job interviews the most important question is what the pay is. I'm not trying to bust your chops as I like your posts just curious why you didn't ask them.:dontknow:
     
    moloko Thanks this.

    point taken. i tend to not ask about pay so much at interviews, because sometimes that question irritates the interviewer. at least that's how it's been in other fields ive interviewed in. but i got it straightened out--emailed the recruiter.

    When I worked in office jobs asking about pay during an interview meant you were only interested in a pay check and not what type of work you would be doing. Truck driving is a lot different.

    I would like to share this with you. When I applied for a job with YRC. The terminal mgr. did not mention the pay scale at all. We, that is myself and another new hire sat through video's and was given a tour of the dock and that was it. So, before we left I had to bring the subject up. "What's the job start at? The terminal mgr never mentioned pay .
