Man DFW HUD New Hire process is slow (AIR RAMP). I went in for the tour and did the whole background and fingerprint check. I called two days ago and my background came back clear. Now they are saying wait for a call. I'm LIKE WHAT? I passed up two part time job because I assumed this was a slam dunk! They even said to go on-line and complete the rest of the docs. Which I did

I still see my application as active. What does all this mean now? Did I get the job and wait?, Or do I continue to look for.

Also, HR says once I pass 30 days, I will earn seniority and then about 6 to 9 months, I can start earn benefits including union, correct?

Yes or no depending on the seasonal start period in your area. But they will keep everyone that breathes. Healthcare benefits require 9-12 months since date of hire to recieve.

What are all the different delivery services & labels i need to remember ? I would love to get them down 100% before the season starts. If anyone can chime in and give a rundown on our shipping services 1+,etc and also the processes required for each delivery/pickup would be greatly helpful to new drivers

Okay everything is locked and I still haven't received a start date.. Does it mean I keep looking or just wait for the call and everything is looking good now since they locked everything?

#1) I had a pre-employment drug test.

[SeasonalDesertTrooper]

Should I worry yet Mr Hartunian? Lol @burrheadd

 

[BleedBlue2018]

I'm always worried.. LOL Its like a freaking RACE.. LOL I called yesterday and spoke with H.R and he said look for his e-mail on Friday and I should start on Monday... I'm like I think he bothered with me calling everyday, so that why he said to look for his e-mail so he can get a break from me.. LOL I'm pretty sure I'm not going to get an e-mail.

Thanks

Just a quick yet probably dumb question. Just wrapped up with driver school - Got a 100% on the test. They said people would either start on monday or tuesday. Two of us including me are starting on monday and 1 other guy is starting on tuesday. Is there a reason they'd put us on one day or another?

 

[sailfish]

what are the methods?

Hell if I remember.

Keep calling, emailing or texting your hr.

 

[BleedBlue2018]

Well I finally got the e-mail Friday night with my start date (TODAY). I interviewed Oct 4th and it took them two weeks to hire me.

 

[bugsbunny]

Good luck.

 

[BleedBlue2018]

Good luck.

Well just came to find out that in a seasonal part timer. I was like WTH I didn't apply for a seasonal job. I applied for FULL part-time job. He said if they like me they will keep me afterwards.
