Hello i was wondering if anyone else ever ran into this problem and what they did about it? I have about 6 years experience and of course the new employer wants to verify my last 3 yrs of employment.. The problem is my previous employer will not reply to multiple requests. I applied at 6 places and found it strange how they stopped replying and didn't finish processing my application. Then all the sudden i get an email today saying my previous company won't reply and they can't hire me unless they can verify my previous 3 yrs of employment. Isn't there some kind of DOT rule that they have to reply? They might be mad i left and being stubborn about it. I think their company is going under too. So maybe they don't care
Previous Employer Won't reply to new Employer. Can't get Hired

Do you have W-2 forms or tax returns for those 3 years. If so, most companies will accept that as proof.

Your previous employer can get into trouble by not responding. May not help but, if it was me I’d probably initiate a call to fmcsa and see how far I could get to putting the employer on the fmcsa’s radar.broke down plumber, hope not dumb twucker and jimbo33 Thank this. -
Pay stubs aren’t going to get you anywhere with what is expected from hiring carriers. If you’re trying to get on with a large company you are probably sol.broke down plumber, hope not dumb twucker and jimbo33 Thank this. -

You can ask them why are they interfering with your application to get a new job?
and you don't need to be an **** hole but be calm about it.

I got hired at a large company and the of the 2 previous companies on my 10 year work history one of them was no longer in business. Not sure what happened with that when they inquired, or how they would even do so in that case, but it didn't prevent me from getting the job.
jimbo33 Thanks this.
