    alot has changed since Knight took control of them. you really better check with your recruiter prior! some company's will work with that & some want to be prick's.

    You just need to be able to document the job. Letter from the boss and/or phone numbers they can call to verify. Many places just go through the motions checking on non cdl jobs. Never can tell with Swift though.

    You OK with hair follicle drug test? Must be clean 12 mos. to pass.
    Swift does hair follicle drug test.
    A couple of other companies that do only urine test have cdl school and can run teams out there also.
    Some companies want the information listed like this; keeping it simple:

    • At least 3 years of verifiable employment, self-employment, or unemployment.

    I work for both Swift and Knight and they never asked me for W2. As long as they can contact the last job and verify, that’s good enough. You can also list periods when you were unemployed. They just need to verify that with your references.
