[QUOTE="SBTY_Syndrome, post: 2791784, member: 67027"] Newbie here. As the title suggests, I am interviewing for a FT (Temp 2018) Package Delivery Driver off the street. From what I have gathered by reading past threads, it is a very select few that actually get chosen. I applied on a whim and from what I have read, delivery seems like a good job and very sought after. But I am afraid of a bait and switch. Bring me in for delivery and sell me on loading stating I have to "work my way up". Now I am a very hard worker, I workout 5 days a week and have been a fitness trainer and a gymnastics instructor. So physical and mental endurance is something I can handle. But I've also heard a lot of horror stories. What are the odds that I can get the job off the street? (a pretty populated area not rural) If I do have to work my way up, will I really have to wait years to get a driving position? and is it worth it? If I don't get a drivers position, would it be better to get my CDL and reapply rather than taking loading and waiting? (inb4 "you're a p.o.s you gotta shovel crap before you rank up" tough guy comment) [/QUOTE]
