Hey all! Just found out today that I was approved for pre-hire with Gordon Trucking. I've been hoping for this one. Have read a ton of posts on here about them and I've hardly seen anything negative about them. The recruiter told me that only about 40% of their applicants are approved so I feel really good to be one of them. To anyone who currently drives for GTI, any info or advice you can give me would be great. I still have to go to school for my CDL but as soon as that's done, I'm all set and very excited about it. Thanks everyone for all of your info up to this point.
Woo-hoo!! Pre-hired with GTI

joshmck1982, glad to hear you got hired with us. You are right that it is hard to get on with GTI. I have talked to a ton of drivers on the road who have told me that they were turned down and were puzzled. I asked about it and was told that they want only the best and that they get lots of apps so they can be choosey. I really like it here at GTI. Things are not as good as a few years ago, but that is because of the pinch with the economy. GTI is a very conservative minded company who is fiscally sound and doesn't skimp on safety. Don't play games with your logs, tell the truth, and always do the safe thing and you will be ok. They will treat you right, if you do right by them. I really don't like to "recruit" for companies, because I don't trust any of them. This is a buisness pure and simple. They look out for their interests and I look out for mine. I have worked for other companies and I would say that GTI is by far the best that I have worked for.
If you have any questions feel free to ask me.
prancerdog and snakeskin Thank this. -
I'm glad to hear so many great things about GTI. I have 2 more weeks left in school and got prehired...so the fact that they are picky is good news because I have a great work attitude and don't want to jump ship from a company. In fact they told me to complete school first and call them the next day to set up an orientation date...Hell Werner just threw dates at me for orientation.Go figure huh...
