While I did not make it through the front door of the company I wanted to note how they are hot for you one second, then drop you the next.
I went through the hiring process over the phone, filled out all paperwork, spent hours on the phone with the recruiter trying to sort out why i have been unemployed for many months. After all of that the recruiter says he has everything passed and I am good to go for monday orientation. He said he will fax, or call, to let me know when to show up and what hotel to go to.
Thursday I get no calls, and friday I decide to call myself. Maybe they are busy and forgot about me, i think to myself. So I call and ask for the guy who is 'unavailable'. Another guy gets on the phone and I tell him about wanting to schedule orientation. I give him the SSN and he says 'well we dont have your DAC yet, and looks like they never ran it' then after a pause he goes 'We cant hire you right now, call back in a few months to try again'. So I start to ask why, and very hateful he says 'were not telling you why, its company policy'. I ask him 'who can tell me then' and he says 'no one'.
Im not sure what his problem was, but if they never looked at my DAC how can they make a decision to not hire me a day later when they wanted to before?
Knight seems to want to best of the best, but doesnt want to be the best they can be to the drivers. My last job I had a 90% ontime rate, never lost cargo, never had a claim i had to pay, never broke any of the major rules (no abandoning truck, failing drug test, refusing tests, etc).
