CRST Recruiters Tricked Me

After a week and a half of staying in constant contact with a CRST recruiter I was told I was accepted to the CDL training school in Cedar Rapids. Two days before I was supposed to leave I was told I needed a copy of my birth certificate which I paid $45 to have over-nighted to me. I received my "Congratulations" Email and the confirmation for my bus ticket. The recruiter then called me hours before i was to get on the bus and stated that he was sorry but he over looked something and i wasn't going to be able to attend the school after all! All this after I spent time and money getting all the things I needed for the trip, turned down other promising job offers, packed my bags and was preparing to say bye to my family for a few weeks. Talk about a huge disappointment! Moral of the story is don't believe a thing you hear from them until you get off the bus in Cedar Rapids.

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. Welcome to the site! If you had read thru the High Roads Training or just jumped on and asked we would have told you to; Leave All Doors Open! This gives you the opportunity to shop around, and in your case have back ups. I would suggest that you check back to the other offers and see if they'll give you a spot. Good luck P.S. Was the" something" you mentioned above going to follow you to other company's?

It was a suspension on my driving record from 2010 for an unpaid ticket. Not even a D.U.I.or anything serious. You would think they would have found that before sending me the bus ticket info. especially since I even told them about it before-hand. I have other companies working right now to try to get me approved so hopefully I will have some good news in a day or two. Thanks for the good luck wishes!
