    4 months isn't huge. Last year people would hire you. Capacity is higher this year, I don't know how greedy companies are for new people. The bulk pneumatic you will be home every night, at least that's what I here.

    It is our policy to contract with the most qualified and responsible individuals for positions. Our minimum hiring requirements for drivers are:
    [​IMG][​IMG]
    • Must be a minimum of 21 years of age.
    • Must be able to document at least one year of tractor trailer experience over public highways.
    • Must be in possession of a valid Class A CDL license with a Tanker endorsement.
    • Must not have had an operator's license suspended within the previous three years for unsafe operation or have a record that would indicate a disregard for public safety.
    • Must not have any major preventable accidents.
    • No more than 1 violation in the preceding 3 years.
    • Must be able to pass a DOT physical & Drug Screen.
    • Must be able to present a 10 year verifiable employment history showing all unemployment gaps if any.

    I filled out probably 20 applications this weekend and haven't gotten one call or email from any of them. I guess they can be picky right now because freight is a little slow

    Give it a week or two. Call on wed or Thursday and make sure they got them.

    They might be requesting mvr on you.

    That's odd; they hire new cdl school grads.
    "Have 6 months of recent, verifiable, tractor/trailer experience with a regulated carrier OR be a recent graduate from an accredited truck driving school."
