Employment history needed to get a job? They don't like part time.

I have 3 years of verifiable work history, clean driving record. I have applied to many trucking companies that offer cdl classes, yet all have turned me down because my employment history is part time and they want full time employment history. Does anyone know of a company that offers cdl training and accepts part time verifiable employment history?

 

CRST and CR England do IIRC. Both companies are lousy and if you don't stick it out one year you will oww them several thousand dollars in tuition reimbursement. Check local community colleges for courses. I went to HCC for 6 weeks and it only cost 3500

 

You're going to need to document up to the last 10 years of employment or back to leaving high school. You can write a statement explaining gaps in employment and you should include a name and contact info for people who can confirm it.

Use the internet to research the names and dates of your part-time jobs. They are looking for gaps 30 days or longer where you might have been in jail or addicted to drugs/crime. Some companies just need something in your file documenting the time. It's a federal requirement

 

Where is your location? State & nearest city.
Which companies have you applied with that turned you down?

 

I'm in Vernon TX. I have applied to Crst, knights, raiders, prime, and prime.

 

Prime is pretty picky about ANYTHING in your history.

 

Yeah, they accepted everything else except my part time employment. They was ok with it before I told them it was part time.

 

Do the online applications for these, then wait a couple of days and follow up with a phone call:

Recommending CRE and Swift? Why do you hate this guy so much?
