i have to admit this is tempting

Thats on you if you want to list Rist or not. Just be prepared to answer any and all gaps in your employment history to a prospective employer. As far as the DAC goes, i wouldn't stress about it too much, most reasonable companies want to fill a seat, so as long as you didn't have a preventable or a reckless ticket you should be fine

 

Probably the fact you lasted only a few months at Werner and two weeks at RIST. Companies don't like job hoppers.

 

I know drivers with more experience than I have that didn't get hired on ( they can afford to be more selective since they're a smaller outfit), so I wouldn't take it personal, move on to the next
I was going to add that too @Florida Playboy but ya beat me to it lol

 

Well.... first....no one or company actually owes you a job!!

You interview with the temp staffing agency because they are the ones who will match you up with companies based on your qualifications and the companies/clients requirements... the company.. who is a client of the temp agency interviews you because you are being sent their as a potential candidate for hire... because you meet their requirements...

There are labor ready stafffing agencies where you show up or call in and they send you somewhere to work for the day.. but, there is no guarantee they will have something for you everyday.. and they usually operate on a first call basis.. meaning if they have enough work for 10 people that day.. generally the first 10 to call or show up at the office get it... some pay you daily while others weekly...

I do understand how frustrating to be looking for a job, and unfortunately rejections are a part of it.. especially if a company has called you in for a second or third interview and have it narrowed down between you and one other.. and they go with thee other one...

In all honesty, two simple interviews are not that hard.. panel interviews, where you are being interviewed by a panel of three or more interviewers all asking questions and writing down notes every time you speak can be very intimidating... at my firm, we do help people with their interview skills...

It costs to hire a new employee.. in the trucking industry is cost a company around $5,000 to $9,000. The average cost to replace an employee are: 16% of annual salary for high-turnover, low-paying jobs (earning under $30,000 a year). For example, to replace a $10/hour retail employee would be $3,328. 20% of annual salary for mid-range positions (earning $30,000 to $50,000 a year)

I know, none of this matters or concerns you.. you are just looking for a job.. however, it does impact you, as more and more companies are weeding out applicants who have a history or look like a potential job hopper..

Also, keep in mind, just because you see a job posted on craigslist, Indeed, Careerbuilderr, Monster or wherever does not mean that the position is actually open at the present time... a lot of the posting you see are fishing postings... where an add is place to start collecting applications and weeding through them

 

You can STILL excel at this trucking thing, you just can't give up.

I'm sorry, most company's HR and Saftey departments suck golf balls through a garden hose. They want you to bend over backwards for their measley pittance while taking your suggestions with a grain of salt.

I never liked nor tolerated tag team interviews, a rediculous waste of time, only looking for the most consumate of rear end polishers.
