That rep may have been sacked for making a false report. But the report was not for what you are saying it was (and it was false).

We don’t require a license at our TOC. But I do ask at interview how they expect/plan to arrive in time for their shifts. I have actually had someone admit that they hadn’t thought through how they were going to get in for an 0430 start.

To be fair all depots that have advertised have now had candidates taking OPC testing.

Scarborough didn’t have a suitable candidate and didn’t hire.

1000’s not 100’s of applications. It’s just not practical to give feedback to all those. The automatic feedback from the AI will help.

It is after 8 weeks.

100%. It has unfortunately brought the worst out in one or two candidates. Definitely some burnt fingers recruitment wise so Driver Managers will be ultra scrutinising this time to try and prevent some more slipping through the net.

AI won’t be exclusively sifting.
