Adverse Action Notice? TMC

Old dominion not looking promising. I called the supervisor who said they had filled all the jobs they needed, even though the position is still showing being available to apply for and they are changing how you apply in the next week or so. so i'm waiting and reconsidering a few places i had initially passed on because of one reason or another

I feel the interview went very well. They said they had a few more interviews that day but I should hear something hopefully this week one way or another.. On another note a few weeks ago a friend of mine that works at Old Dominion got me in touch with a supervisor. At the time there were no dock jobs here in town but just now i finished an application for the dock worker that must have been put back up and I'm going to call the supervisor tommorow

Od wouldn't hire me until I fixed the dates for the other trucking I worked at for a month at the time. I had my start date as Monday when I got to orientation, but didn't officially get hired till Wednesday when the drug test came back. So yes they are very thorough.

Have you looked into LTL companies? There are several in Birmingham.

Adverse Action Notice? TMC

Thanks Anne, you are probably right. I didnt realize they were so thorough on their background check. Unfortunately I've been rejected for jobs so much this year that I'm used to it. I really would prefer local because of my family, but because I have no training going regional would have been a compromise I was willing to make. I did apply through this site, but I will update my info. I had an interview with Averitt Express to go through their dock to driver program so I'll keep my fingers crossed while I update my job info

Adverse Action Notice? TMC

Recently I applied for tmc with the hopes of being sent to driving school and working regional. I spoke with Dawn the recruiter, and after review of my application she asked for a copy of the accident report for an accident i had in Nov 2018 when a guy exited the freeway hit me and kept going. I gave her all the info and she said my application was under review and I would hear back in a few days. A few days later at almost email I get an email with an " pre Adverse Action Notice", I never saw one of these but it didnt sound good. It had a copy of my background check etc, everything which was clean, the letter said based on the info inside the company may decide not to hire me. The next day Dawn texts and emails me saying the company went with other candidates and thanks for my interest. I called, texted and emailed just trying to find out what in this adverse action letter hurt me but of course I had no answer. Has anyone experienced this, is there any way to find out what the issue is? I dont want to keep applying if theres something thats keeping me from being hired that i dont know about. I will also include i recently got out of bankruptcy and there was on my work history a job i had at tyson earlier this year. i didnt have it on my resume because i was only there a few weeks, before that I was at the railroad for the last 12 years. could that be it?
