<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mlongrie, post: 1113745, member: 34416&quot;]I have a CDL but no experience, recent student.</p><p><br /></p><p>This recruiter from one of the super-large trucking companies called me, because I submitted a job application, but he didn&#039;t&nbsp; really say much, and I didn&#039;t really ask much but he did verify my email address. So then I got 4 emails from him, one of which asked me to fill out a form and have a notary republic certify that I am unemployed. How does this make sense at all?</p><p><br /></p><p>My last job was in Afghanistan and I&#039;ve been unemployed for awhile now, but not collecting because I&#039;m not eligible, so theres no unemployment benefit stubs, or whatever. So I go to the notary person and say, hey, certifiy this paper that says I&#039;m unemployed, I filled it out, and really the only way for you to know that I&#039;m not working is to ask me, which will somehow prove to this trucking company beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am not working.</p><p><br /></p><p>They also seem pretty serious about contacting my previous empoyers and verifying that I indeed, have no truck driving experience, as I&#039;ve said. And am not trying to pull a fast one, by pretending to be a rookie.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would think a license check, and background check, and a drug test, and perhaps contacting the school I attended, would be the best hiring method.</p><p><br /></p><p>These guys just seem strange, I&#039;m going to put em at the bottom of my list.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
