Bewildered Part 2
Topic 8497 | Page 1
This is the second company that has turned me down for school and has given me no reason. If you read Bewildered (previous post) you will see why I am both discouraged and confused. Been ace-ing my practice tests too.
Maybe it's just the good Lords' way of keeping me safe, I don't know.
Applied both to Roehl and to Knight.
Guess I'll have to work in another profession. I'm not going back to nursing!
Cynthia,
There is a link on the home page of truckingtruth.com, quality trucking.com., CDL training provided. I followed the link, applied and start training on 5/11/15. Do not be discouraged, I have applied to 5 companies, had 3 job offers and not received a response from the other 2. I've said many prayers and put countless hours of research into reading company reviews.
I'm thankful I found this website, because there is so much negativity in corporate reviews, I would probably have not taken the leap of faith in pursuing this career.
I am sure if you are diligent in your pursuit of your job search, you will get a "YES." Don't let 1, 2, or 3 NO's stand in your way of a career.
Thomas Edison "creator of the light bulb" failed or got 10,000 no's before the light bulb successfully worked and was invented. The message here is "don't give up, where there's a will, there's a way."

Hugh? The homepage of truckingtruth.com only shows an introduction to this site with a menu of links to this site's other pages. I do not see a link called quality trucking.com. Which link are you referring to?
