    So basically I applied a couple weeks ago, completed every step my recruiter made me go through. For him/her to tell me that I’ve worked too many jobs in the past 3 years. They said the maximum is 4 & I have worked 6.

    Why didn’t they say that from the beginning?

    Since prime & Wilson are brother/sister companies. Do you think the same rules apply?

    They aren't brother/sister. Wilson OTR has an agreement to pick up a large amount of PRIME freight, but Wilson also runs a western division that doesn't touch PRIME. Which company turned you down?

    AL but with my lease ending this month. I don’t mind relocating. I have my CDL permit currently looking for paid company training.

    Prime won't hire you, but try anyway. Prime's job history is very strict.
    Try some others, even if you don't want to work there. At least it's a start.

    Alabama, ok, I'll give you a list of companies to try.
    Can you pass a hair follicle drug test?
