Well its was looking good with prime, I got my Prhire PENDING on a Refreshers Class! Lady I was talking to was thinking I went to SCHOOL to get my CDL A, Well today she gave me a call saying I need to do a Refreshers class from the school where I went to get my CDL at, Told her I never did go to school I got it on my own passed the paper test no problem and drivers test no prob drove for 6 months but thats been just about two years back! She said can't do there school sence I have my CDL But some person I was talking to said a girl had her CDL but went in the prime school even tho she had it! now WTF is up with that! SOOOOO I gave C1 Trucking school a call today! 1300 for a Refresh BUT they really want me to pay 3000+$$$$ cuz I MIGHT not pass THERE Test sence i did not go to there SCHOOL!
So now my ? is, The C1 School I know there kind of a joke to a point but are there test just about the same as the States or they there own test they made up! Like I said I passed my paper test no problem! I just did the online test to see if I can still do it made 100% on them! Now DDA in Little Rock AR "Im in MountainView Ar" wants 900$ for a refreshers but IDK What c.os Hire people from DDA or C1 Schools. I really don't have the money to dish out for a class but i have some retirement$$$ in from the county I can get it out but I really hate to do that. My luck I take the money out then the County Judge will want to hire me back on!
Srry for my rant!!
Prime+School+Refreshers= A pain in the_______!

I went to C1 in 09 they didn't have a test then ! I saw guys that couldn't shift trying to pass the driving test. Now they will let you stay until you get it, but no special test for them. they do quiz you on logs and so forth, but its nothing serious. maybe you need to look for a smaller company that wont require a refresher ?

I've heard that if you escalate your case past the Prime recruiter, that exceptions can and will be made if you make a good case. Try posting your issues in the Prime forum here on TTR, someone there may be able to help you out.

The main issue isnt whether you did or didnt go to an actual school. The issue is you only have six months experiance and that was 2 years ago.
If it was just six months experiance now and not 2 years ago, they'd take you.
Either get some sort of refresher (that they will accept) or get some recent driving experiance and reapply.
