If they are inviting you to orientation you should be ok, as long as all the information you provided about your back ground is truthful and accurate. They will dig up nondisclosured information and may send you home based on that.
No company wants to waste time and money transporting and hosting a student just to send them home on day 1 for kicks.

Welcome back Thomas.
As long as you fully disclose everything to the companies you apply to, you shouldn't have any worries of them sending you home. They'll do a preliminary background/DMV check before inviting you to orientation. If you pass that, you're clear unless other skeletons come up.

Department of Motor Vehicles, Bureau of Motor Vehicles

Yea I told them everything that I could remember. I let her know some of it the dates may not be correct. But that's from them being so old. But I did not lie about anything it's all over. I'm clean and clear so I hope they give me a chance.

How is everyone its been two years since I posted here. Last time I posted I was just getting my license back from a suspension Now that I have had my license back almost 3 years with no tickets no nothing. Clean as a whistle. I'm ready to start looking for a company that may give me a chance. Like I said in my last post. I have had some run in with the law but all that is over 11 years old. No felonies. Looking to find a company that will offer CDL training and give me a chance. My fear right now is quitting my job to go to a company that is going to say I'm good to go and when I get there decide they wanna change there mind. So if any of you guys can give me some pointers that would be great. I do have a seat schedule for Stevens transport in a few weeks recruiter ran fine background and mvr she spoke with her supervisor. And told me I was good. Should I take that as a yes or be wary.
