When did we start treating drivers like a number on a lead list? Drivers aren’t leads. They’re people. People expect a personalized experience in everything they do. Why shouldn’t that include finding a job? For truck drivers, their job is not just all about the work. They take pride in their profession. It’s a lifestyle. It’s a commitment. It’s about feeling they belong, and they’re valued. Changing the industry starts by making hiring personal again and understanding what drivers are actually looking for in a job. It’s about getting to know each driver on a personal level and delivering a job that will not only meet their professional qualifications but also match their desired lifestyle.
Throughout this presentation, Beth will share data on exactly what drivers want and how companies can change their hiring strategy to meet their needs. Attend this session to learn:
