    Not familiar with the company. I think Celadon owns the company, but not sure.

    H/R Called me today, we talked on the phone for about 45 minutes. Shes great, if she does not have an answer. She will get you the correct answer.

    She emailed me my Drug screen and TSA Background check links.

    Currently studying for my CDL permit.

    Total out of pocket cost is around $200 to start the class.

    I have my DOT Card. Just required to get your hazmat background check and permit.

    So, I just finished up all the pre requisites finally.

    You're responsible for
    DOT medical card
    CDL Class A permit with Tanker, Hazmat, Doubles/Triples and air break of course
    With the Hazmat you'll have to under go a TSA background check to make sure you don't "Pose a threat"


    They'll send you for a Urine screen and check your MVR.

    Class start day is the 24th of April. Notice was given to my current employer. That's pretty much all for now.
     
    Chinatown, Suspect Zero and SHOJim Thank this.
