Indyg3 Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 Hello all, I've been noticing that the quality of our CDL driver applicants varies significantly, and I'm thinking that our job descriptions might be part of the issue. I want to make sure we're attracting the right kind of talent right from the start. Any tips on how to craft job descriptions that really draw in qualified and committed drivers?

crax1 Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 (edited) Definitely focus on clarity and specifics in your job descriptions. Outline the exact qualifications, skills, and experience required. Don’t just say "CDL required" specify which class of CDL and any endorsements needed. Highlight unique aspects of the job, like flexible hours or special benefits, that differentiate you from others. The more precise you are, the more likely you are to attract candidates who meet your needs. Edited July 26 by crax1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanitC Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 One approach that's worked well for us is using language that resonates with drivers' daily lives and values. For instance, emphasizing stability, respect for work-life balance, and opportunities for advancement can appeal to those looking for a long-term career rather than just a job. Also, including testimonials from current drivers can give a real-world perspective that attracts like-minded applicants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
