    Don't talk to the recruiter. Go to the nearest terminal and talk to the terminal manager in person. If he wants to hire you, you are in, heck with the recruiter.
    Same goes with other companies in your area.

    Yup, I second the face to face meeting. Get a copy of your driving record and go to the terminal......

    That’s something you do if you want a job. Show up in person, dress better than the job you’re applying for, firm handshake, look the man in the eye, tell the truth, don’t waste his time, know what you need, be available to start ASAP, do whatever they need doing.

    I'm still bummed out about not driving tanks but I was interested in flatbeds before I got into tanking. I guess I'll have to learn how to drive a stick again if theyI guess lol
