Frequently Asked Questions
How soon can I start working?
Job availability changes on a daily basis. Once our application process is complete, you will be considered based on your preferences and your skills and will be offered appropriate positions.
What is involved in the application process?
You will need to complete an online application or come into our office to apply. After the application is complete, you will be able to sit down with one of our Career Managers, who can develop a profile on your job requirements. For instance, location or shift might be important to you, which will dictate which available position meets your needs.
Once you have completed the interview, we will perform reference checks with previous employers and other references, and will also conduct a background check and drug test. You will then go through basic safety training and, for office positions, may be asked to do some computer testing to determine skill levels.
Once the process is successfully completed, you will be offered jobs based on all of the factors of the hiring process.
How often should I contact your office after an interview?
We realize that it is not always convenient for you to check in on a daily basis, you are simply encouraged to stay in touch with our office so we are aware of your availability. We have a group email for communication through jobs@cdsdrivers.com or you can use our check-in line. You will be asked to leave your name, phone number, and what type of work you are interested in.
What if I am not interested in a certain position when it is offered; is it all right to turn it down?
Not every job is going to meet the expectations you have. If you are not interested in a position, you are free to decline. We will continue to offer positions to you based on your skills and preferences.
What if I am on an assignment and decide it is not for me?
Our goal is to locate the best place of employment, and best fit company for your skills. We will work with you to prescreen and evaluate all of your job options before you are placed on assignment.
However, we realize that not every job is a good fit for you; sometimes you do not know that until you have tried the position. If you are on an assignment and find it is not going to work for you, we will ask that you contact us immediately. You may be asked to stay at an assignment long enough for us to find a replacement, but we will attempt to remedy the situation as quickly as possible. As with any interaction, communication is the key. We expect open communication from our field employees and they can expect the same from the Contracted Driver Services office.
What do I pay for your services?
Our services are provided at no fee to applicants. As an applicant, you will not pay for any of the services Contracted Driver Services provides.
How can I stay informed about open positions?
Most of our open positions will be posted on our website. At times, some positions may not be posted to our website… applicants can communicate with our staff for detailed information about all positions available.
