    Off-n-on:

    The "we" refers to myself and the rest of the hiring team comprised of fleet managers/supervisors, logistics managers and safety / compliance manager. The "our" is just an encompassing word, not trying to come across as if we "own" them...quite the contrary...if you would prefer me to say "the" I can.

    Nalco has 2 main businesses: Water Process Services & Energy Services. Both have their own fleets and I recruit with the Water Process & Services side. I really cannot comment about the Energy Services side, as they are set up different, but I think we both have the same minimum qualifications for our Customer Delivery Specialists (drivers).

    Overall, I think there are many benefits being a driver for Nalco, but then again, I'm biased!

    Slow down. The more "we" know is a term to encompass the service we can provide. Most drivers have been lied to abused, treated like lower life forms by lesser company's and a pure indigenous question to a Good company they balk at. I question everything. I consult here, that's my honor. I could direct other drivers to a good company, I need to understand their rules first.

    You should question everything. When I speak to candidates, I always encourage them to ask me questions so they are clear about the job, expectations, interview process, the company, and/or anything else they can think of. If I don't have all of the answers, I advise them to table the question for when they have the opportunity to speak directly with the hiring manager.

    With regard to the "rules," I'm not sure I understand your question. I can say that there is low turnover within our fleet (on the water side) and even Nalco as a whole. I would say the average person working at Nalco has been there 15+ years...quite amazing. I am a newborn being there for only 2 years.

    Not all but most truckers are your average Joe lunch box type that aren't impressed with fancy terms. Not sure but you might have better luck with this crowd by leaving out the fancy talk.
