[QUOTE="toddthecat, post: 1137033, member: 47652"] Hey guys! Quick question: I applied for a driver position (yes, I know about the 7:1 thing and I took the shot in the dark to be an off-the-street hire) and went to the tour of the facility today at 10:55am. We heard about working for UPS for 35 mins and then interviews started. There were 8 of us there and the interviews were averaging 10 to 15 minutes. I did the interview and I felt super positive about it. So about 3:40pm I got called back by HR. He asked if I still had an interest in the job (obviously I did). He said they needed my SSN and DOB to start background checks which I provided him with. Then he asks if I am still able to go to the driver training out of town next week. You betcha. I got the option of having a hotel sunday night due to travel or if I wanted to drive down Monday morning. I chose the hotel for Sunday night because it's a long drive. He says that's fine and he'll call later and give me confirmation info. Awesome! But....what does this mean in terms of being hired? Are they going to run background while I do training and see if I can make the cut? My background is spotless so I'm not worried about that. What is the week long training like? The reason I ask is that I currently work full time and I don't want to be the jerk employee that quits without giving any sort of notice. In your personal experiences is this whole scenario normal? Does it basically lead to employment? [/QUOTE]
