    I'm glad you started this thread because I also am having questions, not just about Swift. If I was terminated for no reason at my last job, two trucking recruiters already told me that I do not meet their hiring criteria. This seems to be a discriminatory practice.....maybe difficult to prove but there are fair employment laws in every state.

    Just not understanding how the trucking companies can say this up front, without ever requesting a verification from my previous employer.

    Not sure that Swift is one of the companies doing this, might be.

    It depends on who the recruiter is... if you get a recruiter that is being short and nasty don't submit the application with him or her... call again until you get one who wants to go to bat for you... the WORSE of them all is NANCY K. the best Corina... my hero... hahahahahahahahaha!!!

    Don't think they are harder than any other mega carrier.

    Yeah, checked out the link and if you look at it close you will notice that it's a basic C.R. England help wanted section.
