    I have applied to Poly about 6-7 different times. They finally sent me a application to fill out and return and I thought I was in the door but.....once again, nothing. I know Jimmy, Larry, Walker and a couple of other drivers there and they all say it is a great company However, I think their HR leaves a little bit to be desired. Before you answer back and say maybe it's my driving record, I have been out here for over 25 years, 11 of that which can be verified. I have no tickets. No Accidents, and I have Zero points on my CSA! I also live in Indiana which they are shipping more and more in and out of. I don't know what the Problem is.

    I suggest that you contact them via email & ask questions. They will not answer the phone or messages until they contact you. However, they will answer emails. Good luck.

    I'm doing it this afternoon. I'm down (again) with a 5-day-old bunk AC that has failed already. I'm no longer dealing with these no-idle units. It's either APUs, straight idling, or nothing.

    Wishing you the best. Once you've submitted application, wait 2-3 business days then send an email asking if they have received it.

    You can bet I'll do it. Thanks!

    Actually, I've already sent an inquiry e-mail with a few basic questions. I'll have to download the app when I get a chance and send it off. But I sure can't take Crete's baloney much longer.

    I downloaded the App and scanned it using my cam scanner that Crete had us use. I emailed the completed app to Poly and it took about 8 days to get a call.

    I deliver in Grapevine,TX Monday morning. Will have another 3700+ mile week. The log book has to take a rest so I will be off till Wednesday. I'll get my rear window replaced Tuesday. May go to a Texas Rangers game Monday night if I can take a nap. If anyone else is going to be in town Monday & wants to go let me know.

    Just came out of the house today after being home since Wed. morning. I have 3 stops in Georgia that will take me all over the state. JD, I won't make it back to GP till later in the week, if you are still there, I'll give you a holler.

    I mailed in my completed application over a week ago. Sent an email last Friday asking if it had been received and have gotten no answer. I don't want to be a pest, but it would sure be nice to know that it was in their hands. When I had previously emailed them a general question, I received an immediate answer. I'm currently unemployed and going with Poly is my first choice by far, but I don't know if I should go ahead and apply to other companies.

    In the meantime I am going to get more projects done at home and keep my fingers crossed.

    I would send another request for application confirmation. Certainly worth a try.
