TMC - Recruiting Not Upfront About Turndowns

TMC is a great company to work for once you get in. Keep hassling your recruiters on daily basis. The recruiting process def needs some work, but the company is run much better. Age shouldn't play a role, as long as you can physically do the required tasks and you have a 2 year medical card. (blood pressure and weight in check) How is your driving record? Any criminal or drug activity? What were you doing while self employed? What kind of business did you run?

 

Most companies are like this. Heck trucking is like this. Not sure if they were being insensitive or not. Understand that big companies like TMC have hundreds of applications they see weekly. They dont have time to write down a reason why they rejected every app. It could be for anything too. A company turned me down because of my credit score. Dont let it get you down. Melton and Maverick are probably better companies anyway.I gave TMC strong comsideration as well, mainly because of the black and chrome Peterbilts. Im in an International and love it. Hope this helps.

 

East Texas is a good location for some good flatbed companies.

Melton Truck Lines

System Transport(download application from website & Fax it to them is their preference)

Howard Transportation is a good smaller flatbed 150 truck company.

 

If there was another reason why they passed over you other than the one they gave you, would you really expect them to tell you? If it was related to age, how could you "work" on that anyways?

 

Like the other guy said, they do get a lot of apps. If you keep asking and keep calling they will treat your app with more consideration. I'm guessing its a clerical error in the landscaping, but if you keep bothering them, they can fix it.

 

Hi all I applied for TMC and was refused, and as above wasn't given a reason.
I kept on at them and found out it was something to do with my tax records, I got my records sent them in and I start with them on the 14th
Keep trying they are a very busy company and as stated have so many applicants.

all companies are very busy with applicants
sometimes they don't tell you because the reasons
the reasons violate fair hiring practices
if they don't want me I don't want them
