You're not going to appear as a pest. They actually like pro-active people who are genuinely interested in getting the ball rolling.

Is it better to call, text, email, one, two, all three? And what's the best time to call them? Because I would like to be proactive as possible instead of waiting for slow answers. Should I use the recruiters' numbers list on Driver Pulse?

CDL:

Commercial Driver's License (CDL)

A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:

  • Any combination of vehicles with a gross combined weight rating (GCWR) of 26,001 or more pounds, providing the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the vehicle being towed is in excess of 10,000 pounds.
  • Any single vehicle with a GVWR of 26,001 or more pounds, or any such vehicle towing another not in excess of 10,000 pounds.
  • Any vehicle, regardless of size, designed to transport 16 or more persons, including the driver.
  • Any vehicle required by federal regulations to be placarded while transporting hazardous materials.

Personally, I would send an e'mail stating 'hay, so and so... you have my application in hand, and I have a few questions, still unanswered. '

List them, bullet point style.

Next day, no e'mail, call and ask for so'and'so... and have the email at the ready. Just IMHO. Go OVER the questions asked, and unanswered.

Just my two cents; trucker's wife, trucker's life, haha!!

(Wish Brett would make that a drop down qualifier/quantifier, haha!)rofl-3.gif

Emailing a list of questions in bullet point style sounds like a great idea and then over the phone if no reply. Excellent organization. thank-you-2.gif
