    heyl maybe a good company for some. what i found out. too many red flags for me. first phone call the first questions they asked. if i was on welfare or unemployment. seemed like they were fishing for govornment kick backs. and then they asked about everything else. had to keep pestering them to keep up with the status of the application. they are really good about keeping me up to date on it. so they hand the application off to the safety guy. didn't hear from him until monday late in the afternoon. the only reason he called at all. is because i pestered the recruiters. once he called. he told me that he had the app. and wanted to know when i wanted to come in for an "interview" and then he said depending how it went???? they would consider a road test. then said I would be sent back home after that! asked if they did a hotel stays or anything. because i would be traveling 160 miles to the interview???? I still question that. they never said, so I went with no. so i would have to travel 320 miles a day between for orientation. so once i thought about it. I realized that they are in no kind of real need for drivers. and I think they are mostly phishing for back up drivers for possible future employment when they are in need. so it didn't seem very promissing. and for most traveling 320 miles a day for orientation is too expensive. and just too far for a maybe. so for me. it was questionable at best. are they hiring? or are they just taking applications and doing interviews? and there's no real job offer in exsistants at heyl???
