Hi! New Guy
This web site has applications for most of the companies out there.
When I went to switch companies I just filled out apps. for several companies and then waited for the recruiters to contact me.
I had a notebook where I listed questions that I had and when they contacted me I wrote down there replies . Then I weighed each one against the other based on my situation.
Some things to ask
1, do they have freight in your area for your truck size
2, ratio of loads to units signed on
3, how they pay, per mile or percentage
4, how you will recieve settlements, direct deposit,comdata card or via mail
5, what do they deduct from your settlement, such as insurance, occupational insurance, satelite communication fees and service fees
Hope this helps. Best of luck
