[QUOTE="Keepingthemhonest, post: 138113, member: 6514"] Look profesional when you go for the interview, that is good enough (I'd wear slacks and a polo)...most driver's come from the sort as part-timers, once in a blue moon you will get a seasonale driver off the street that gets hired in perm (6 inside people : 1 outside person is the ratio), you'll be issued a uniform and be running your ass off up residential roads most likely. I've been working the sort and helping during peak with the same driver for a coupe years. I know how to use the DIAD (that board we use) so we do dense downtown comercials, pickups, everything...but if you don't know how to use it you will most likely just be running res. The DIAD is an awesome tool it'll tell you the next stop (most of the time) how many should be on the truck ect...and anyone that bitches about it is just an old fogey set in his ways. If you're hired as seasonale you have a slim chance of staying around after peak. Sometimes they will offer you a perm partime job and if you want to help that cause get in contact with a preload sup or center manager. Ask them how you and your driver ran for the week or something then demonstrate your intentions to stay around after peak and ask them for any advice. Stay in contact with HR, give them a call. They hire throughout the year and call people that worked seasonale before other applicants typically as long as you were a good worker. [/QUOTE]
