[QUOTE="theamazondude, post: 5418632, member: 101439"] I applied tried to apply at fedex and Amazon as a delivery driver, they require commercial driving experience even if you don't have a CDL, they require work background driving with references that include name and phone number. Your suggestion that I start off as a warehouse worker to become a delivery driver doesn't make sense. What they require for a delivery driver is to have a clean driving record and to drive quickly to the delivery locations without getting lost or having a crash while driving a large van. Many people can't drive a large van even if they have a regular driver license. If you can drive a large van without running over things or crashing into cars and are familiar with the roads than you should apply for a delivery position however, if you suck at driving and have never driven a white box size truck size van than you shouldn't apply for the delivery position cause you gonna end up crashing it and getting fired. For instance if you miss an exit and get lost your going to be screwed around trying to move around with a huge delivery truck trying to get to a location to either pick up the packages or deliver them. And people are usually waiting for the delivery driver esp. business locations. UPS doesn't care if you can lift boxes, that's why they have the low paying job for those warehouse workers. Delivery driver requires being able to drive not being able to lift boxes. [/QUOTE]
