    Put your location on your profile so we know the hiring area you live in.

    I'm from pa also so I don't think area was the reason, as far as being slow I must have missed that memo, I had to message n call my dispatcher to let him know I needed to be home this weekend although I had made plans some of the loads he was trying to give me were nice runs lol

    Probably the best thing that happened to me getting turned down by Millis. It has worked out nicely for me at Superior overall. One door closes and another opens. You will find the right one MrIT.

    I can tell you one thing, there is NO WAY ON THIS EARTH that Millis gets 200 applications a day. That is 1400 applications a week - yeah right. That is 6000 applications a month - yeah right. That is 73000 applications a year - oh yeah right lol. You mean they want you to believe that 73000 people a year apply to work for Millis? That's the funniest thing I think I have ever heard.

    What it is is just a polite way of telling you they aren't interested, that's all. Like when you ask a girl out and she says, "Oh sorry I have to babysit my cousin that day. Oh sorry, Saturday I'm going to my Grandma's birthday party." It's just a polite way of saying no. The girl isn't going to babysit her cousin, and she isn't going to her Grandma's birthday party, and Millis does not get 200 applications a day.

    I never thought it was possible to get turned down from such a company. It's sorta like getting disqualified from a port a potty training session.

    If an experienced driver gets turned down the first thing you should do is get a free copy of your DAC. There's a good possibility there is erroneous information on it from a vindictive former employer. I got turned down from WEL company and for the life of me couldn't figure out why for 2 years. When they had that class action lawsuit against HireRight then I found out a previous company (WST) had lies on there. It wasn't hard to get it removed. If I've known I could of got in on that money distribution.

    I got turned down from Schneider back when I was wet behind the ears. More than once or maybe twice. Everything is for a reason I believe.
