Failed Pre Employment

I have 10months otr experience. I have no recent experience, I have not driven in 1 year. They terminated me from my last employer. I failed a pre-employment drug screen last year with another carrier. I thought I knew what I was doing, I got an SAP and have undergone a program of recovery, I will have 1 year clean and sober on October 7. I filed a dispute with Hire Right they removed the information about my drug test, but the carrier's information is on the report, so any company can call them and get the information. I just need a second chance, I'm willing to undergo drug testing at my own expense. I appreciate all feedback.

Lorraine, you won't be able to hide the fact that you failed a drug test. It goes into a permanent database that the carriers can access. The SAP program will show up also.

What we always tell anyone who has had issues in their past is to own it. Take responsibility for it, show remorse for it, and try to convince people that you've learned from your mistakes and you're taking a whole new approach to life now. Trying to hide it or make excuses is only going to make you look worse and will destroy any confidence you're hoping people will have in you. If you want a second chance, demonstrate you've learned from your previous mistakes and you're a different person now.

I would recommend looking into Western Express and Carolina Cargo. They might give you a shot.
