Joe, one thing you have to take into consideration is the time of year when applying. Typically winter is the slow time for flat bed work. When the demand is lowest, their selection process becomes more stringent. TMC is real particular - they rejected me twice.
Just keep at it - somebody is going to be glad to have you on board.
TWIC:
Transportation Worker Identification Credential
Truck drivers who regularly pick up from or deliver to the shipping ports will often be required to carry a TWIC card.
Your TWIC is a tamper-resistant biometric card which acts as both your identification in secure areas, as well as an indicator of you having passed the necessary security clearance. TWIC cards are valid for five years. The issuance of TWIC cards is overseen by the Transportation Security Administration and the Department of Homeland Security.
