[QUOTE="MysticHZ, post: 3316749, member: 43722"]Yep ... they want to see how you run ... keep your MAC 10, MAC 32 and log approvals up to date - daily. Always make yourself available for a load. Learn to run recapping, not taking a 34 reset ... and yes be a nuisance - in a congenial way - to your DM for miles. Find out where the freight is and go there to run. You're going to be away from home, doesn't matter if you're 200 miles or 2000 miles away. Also don't worry about short loads, 10 300 mile trips in a week is just as good as 2 1500 mile trips. And, be willing to stay out for awhile. Go out for 4 weeks and then take your 4-5 days off. It's easier to get in a groove once your out. If you go out for 2 weeks, you either in the coming out mode or trying to get home mode, both of which limit your opportunity for miles.
