Default Just got a call from JB Hunt...

Well, on the upside, they told me that I only need about 3 months of experience. On the downside, they want me to find a company to drive for, for 3 months then to call them back. Any companies out there willing to hire me? :?: We shall see!

not to burst your bubble, but i read your other posts on here and saw that you had 3 preventables at Swift. JB isnt going to be able to hire you for 3 years. Yes, our policy after someone is terminated from another company is 3 or 6 months safe driving with another company before we can put you on. Thats probably what the recruiter was telling you. Also next time we call you ( and we will call you) you might want to ask the recruiter to take you out of the system for at least 3 years.

I have 6 weeks experance and 2 preventables,and was terminated. 1 accident was B.S as it was just a few scratches. J.B. calls me every week to tell me they cant hire me :evil:,when I get hired on with a small company I will be staying with them for a long time,and the big companies can go screw themselves :evil:

Who asked JB Hunt to put names on a list any way? I sure didn't. and you'd think when you tell them no, it should be enough, don't you think?
Why is it our responsibility to tell JB Hunt to take names off when you didn't ask to be put on in the first place?

Hey, here's a thought, don't tell them to take your name off and keep wasting their time... :lol: :lol:

Default JB Hunt

Getting on JB Hunt's call list is like getting cockroaches in your house. You play hell getting rid of them.
