Previous Employer Reported To DAC

Hello.

So, I took a job with JB hunt a couple months ago. Did the orientation and then 2 days worth of the training on their dock. (Never actually drove anything) this was a flat bed account hauling glass. Within that first 2 days, I realized that my fear of heights made it very hard to climb up and secure the loads on these specialized flat beds. This being said, I chose to not continue my training and leave. Fast forward a few weeks, I get rejected for other jobs because they listed on my DAC that I was terminated. I reach out to JB Hunt and they inform me that they list termination as the separation reason for all previous employees and it does not necessarily mean that I was fired. They won’t change the reasoning because they claim they are a neutral reporting company(whatever that means). My problem is, most recruiters don’t even bother letting you explain, they just ghost you once they see this on DAC.

What are my options?

Did you communicate that you didn't want to continue on, or did you just leave/not show up?

If you feel the information on your DAC is inaccurate you can dispute it.

Did you communicate that you didn't want to continue on, or did you just leave/not show up?

I think the lack of answer might give some clue. "I chose not to continue my training..." could mean he told the trainer who did nothing with the info. By the fact that this was a post and ghost, I suspect otherwise.

I don't care what the job is (even slinging pizza), always write a letter and offer 2 weeks, making it clear you are resigning your position. Keep that, and present it as proof to other outfits.
