    Run forest run.... Transcam is not a company you go too when drivers have warned you how corrupt they are.

    Hell somebody will hire you without a refresher.

    I got hired by freaking ups worldport and I hadn't drove a truck in over 9 months.

    Apply to everyone. Someone will call.
    Continue applying.
    Accept the best offer for your situation.

    Wait! Don't apply at all. That way if nobody calls you you can ask why. OK. OK. OK. I'm kidding. Like what was already said, just apply. It's not hard to get a job in this world.

    Yea but I have never actually driven except for the schooling/CDL test which was 2 summers ago so I have to go the refresher course route.

    NewTrucker7, add Magnum Ltd. to your list. Good reputation with the drivers. They also have a thread on here.

    Ill add to the leasing subject, usually you have more freedom, picking your own loads, being able to turn down loads(which you shouldn't do) and some companies i believe will let you do certain things in reason to the truck but i could be wrong on that one
     
    NewTrucker7 Thanks this.

    Freymiller has a "Restore Program" for drivers with a long gap in driving.
    Freymiller does NOT require 6 mos. experience like the website says.
