Melton, Navajo, or Covenant?

Hey y'all, 3 months experience greenhorn here. Left CR England early, been watching a lot of YouTube and reading. Trying to make an educated decision on which company to get my 1-2 years rookie experience with...

Thinking between Melton, Navajo, and Covenant.

I trust your opinion, what company would you suggest?

CDL Training, denied because of employment history

Hey brothers and sisters!

I have done some reading on this forum of folks in similar situations before creating this topic; any input you have will be appreciated!

I have zero criminal history I have a great driving record However, I have moved around and switched jobs "a lot" in the past few years

Wil-Trans, Prime, and CRST have each denied my application because of my employment history, so, I am feeling a little discouraged at this moment.

There are maybe 10-15 companies that offer CDL training, so will I get the same denial and reason with ALL of them? I am asking y'all for advice, before I spend the next few hours submitting 5 more applications.

My questions to you are, shall I just keep applying to more companies, will I eventually be accepted? Or, should I just give up altogether because of my employment gaps? I have downloaded a CDL permit training app on my phone, (the highest rated one) and feel confident that I am already ready for my permit. This is what I want, this is what I need...why won't these companies understand/empathize? I get it, we're just a number to them, and a liability... So...how's a guy to go about a fresh start in a new career, without his past holding him back? I have kids now, and local hourly jobs just won't cut it anymore...I need a CAREER! Thank you in advance for taking the time out of your day to help.

- Steven
