Yeah, my last recruiter lied. The last company I worked at was a joke…they lied about everything. They told me I was going to make this much, but I didn’t even come close.

Does it seem like you can’t find a good, trustworthy company no matter how hard you look? In a world where it feels like everyone is just trying to sell something to you, how do you find a company that will treat you with respect? How do you find a company that’s transparent about their offerings? How do you find the company that feels right for you? How do you know when you’re getting scammed?

Ready to apply at a new trucking company? Just how long does it take? And how can you make the application process go faster? CAN you make it go faster?

BOO! Ever heard of ghosting? Ever ghosted someone? And no, I’m not talking about your dating life right now. I’m talking about your relationship with your recruiter. Have you ever committed to an orientation date with a driver recruiter at a trucking company you’ve been longing to work for, only to no-show at orientation? It’s called ghosting and it’s not something you should ever do.

Flatbeds or dry vans. Dry vans or flatbeds. What’s the best choice for you as a driver? If you’re going back and forth between both trucking options, you should carefully consider what you want your daily work life to look like and where you want to be 10 or 20 years down the road. If you don’t carefully consider the pros and cons of each, you might be very unhappy with your choice — leading to a lot of frustration that could’ve been prevented.
