Our Approach

Our Managers and Recruiters have transportation industry experience and use that background to provide driver selection and evaluation services that you can rely on.

Most of our business comes from referrals and repeat business. Our leading-edge driver recruiting systems employ the following unique approach.

We dedicate our in-house recruiters and sourcing teams to your need

Our recruiters have instantaneous access to truck driver talent across the U.S. They draft a sourcing plan customized to your specific need including the use of such tools as (internet sites, career events, professional associations, colleges and universities, alumni associates, and print advertising) to isolate and identify "Hidden Candidates" that you can't reach on your own. As a resource solely dedicated to this function, our team typically executes these sourcing processes within minutes of receiving a job requisition. Within hours, our recruiters can reach out and present your opportunity, to more truck drivers than your recruiters can talk to in weeks. Our processes are designed to facilitate high volume, direct communication with driver candidates in the shortest amount of time.

We reach more truck driver candidates

Our recruiters routinely search MTS' candidate database (MTS-iQ) of over three hundred thousand commercial truck drivers. Each day MTS-iQ grows as drivers throughout the US provide us with their contact information and experience so that we can present them with opportunities like yours as they arise. We present your open position through postings, email blast, text messaging to cell phones, standard phone calls and US mail, as well as other non-traditional means. We can recruit truck drivers anywhere in the country. No one can offer you greater access to truck drivers than MTS.

We talk to passive candidates

We all know that sometimes the best candidates are already working. They typically are not reading help-wanted ads or actively planning a career move. Chances are they need to be sold on making a change.

In addition to presenting your open position to drivers who respond to postings and advertisements we contact truck drivers who are currently working elsewhere. These are drivers who are willing to consider better opportunities but simply don't take the time to monitor job boards and advertisement. Your recruiting efforts are likely missing the best candidates.

We use proprietary referral technology to increase our access to professional truck drivers

We recognize that most drivers socialize with other drivers. As a rule, we ask every truck driver that we come in contact with while presenting your open position, for a referral of other professional drivers who may have an interest. Then we ask those drivers for still more referrals. We utilize a sophisticated proprietary technology to manage this process and ensure its effectiveness and consistency. As a result, we fill a large percentage of our client's openings through referrals. We offer a referral fee to any external source that refers a candidate who is successfully placed.

We know transportation

Our Recruiting, Operations and Safety teams are experts in the field of transportation with comprehensive industry experience including regulatory compliance, DOT file maintenance and 3PL operations management. Once we find a driver for your open position, we will ensure he meets all your hiring guidelines as well as those of DOT and MTS including:

Complete DOT File
Ten year employment history
Current MVR
Current Drug Screen (NIDA)
Current DOT Physical
Criminal history check
Appropriate license and endorsements for the job
Capability Check (ask a representative for details)

Our team of experts will also assist you in determining the appropriate compensation level for yours drivers as well as ensuring that your drivers have the proper licensing and endorsements for the positions you employ.

We stay in touch after the placement

Our recruiters make it their business to stay in touch with drivers that they place, even after they start their new position. This ensures the greatest likelihood that the placement will workout for all parties. It is in our best interest that the placement is successful for both you and the driver and we can often head-off any obstacles that might derail the relationship.
