Truck Driver Applicant Tracking
Applicant tracking software is used by many industries to keep track of their job candidates throughout the recruitment process. If you're a human resources professional who is responsible for hiring truck drivers, or if you manage a transportation company, you'll already know that managing the hiring and onboarding process can be a challenge due to the volume of applications.
Many trucking companies use various software applications and platforms to source candidates, verify information, perform background screenings, do pre-employment drug and alcohol testing, order health assessments, get signed forms, and communicate with job seekers. All of these steps are important, but juggling these different tasks in separate apps can be extremely time-consuming, raising the hiring cost and slowing down the recruitment process.
Fortunately, there's a better way — StaffGlass. Our comprehensive truck driver recruiting software brings the many essential steps of hiring the best drivers into a single, secure platform—while keeping your company compliant with DOT regulations.
Applicant Tracking System (ATS) FAQs for Trucking
Do you have a question about the importance of applicant tracking in truck driver recruiting? Truck driving and transportation companies have different requirements than other industries, such as maintaining compliance with local and federal regulations, and ensuring that drivers are highly experienced, healthy, and drug-free when operating a commercial vehicle.
