List of Questions to ask a Recruiter
Why bother asking a recruiter anything if they are just gonna be a skeezy salesman and outright lie to you? I dunno. If a company is paying to do background, credit and crim checks I kinda doubt that a recruiter is just trying to get you "through the door" since it just costs a company money and time.
So here's my question: I have recently applied to a trucking company as a student driver and have not heard back though I know they're checking my references as I've been in touch with (and been present) when they've called to do their checks. At the end of the application process I was instructed to call and talk to a recruiter. I don't get this. I've done my research on the company I want to join and applied to the job. Is this some weird way of kicking things into gear through a computer program? I mean, it seems silly to talk to a recruiter if I've already applied and signed an application for employment. I'm getting leery about this. I've never applies to a job before and had to call THEM unless we were' playing "phone-tag". Any thoughts from the gurus?
