Response for "Reason for Leaving" in job applications

Well, here's my story........

I first went to Millis for their 'free' driver training only to find out that the only thing they were 'training' me to do was to stay awake and drive a truck 18+ hours a day. When I failed the state test for the third time, (because I didn't know how to pretrip, back, etc), we mutually kicked each other to the curb.
So, on my own dime, I went to the local community college and got my CDL.........look, truck drivin' ain't hard (mostly) but in the beginning it does take practce.
So, then I went with Schneider and haven't looked back......I'm an IC now (3 years later) and I couldn't be happier.

Frankly, I'd take a look at Big Orange, they'll work with you.

best of luck

 

I have have left two jobs, I have also gone back to those two jobs over and over again. You are 100% right. Although I find that couple years away and then back keeps me happy. Although none of the reasons I go back and forth are actually company related.

Back to the OP's question I would simply write "will discuss" and discuss it with protective employers. I have a job that I do that with as it is much easier to explain why a job endded in an interview that to write it in such a small space provided.

 

I never put any reasons, if they want to know then they have to ask, otherwise it isn't important.

 

I don't recall.

 

Online applications are better than phone calls. It's easy to say "no" on a phone, but an application on the computer screen gives them something to consider. Try that.

 

yep.......easier for everbody

 

Reason for Leaving: They left me !
Non joking response. Lack of work, Relocated, Downsized, Out of Business.

 

I always answer,"I give up, tell me."

 

You may need a second chance company:
Paschall Truck Lines

 

I really don't want to pop your balloon. But just maybe you might want to heed their words of lacking the skills to perform the job. Maybe look to another industry, seriously just one bad decision can kill or maim many innocent motorists.
