Managing a constant flow of new CDL driver applicants is no easy task for recruiters. And with truck driver hiring, the goal is always to make it easier and faster (for recruiters & drivers!).
DriverReach is a modern recruiting and compliance solution tailored for the transportation and logistics industry. Our goal has always been to provide the ultimate recruitment and retention tool, which is why we continue to enhance our platform with new features that directly address the daily challenges CDL driver recruiters face.
From custom online applications to communication tools that keep drivers connected, DriverReach offers a wide range of solutions to streamline your recruiting process. But, just like with any software, our platform works best when you can leverage all the features to build fast, powerful, and totally custom workflows.
Here are three unique features of DriverReach that you might not be using yet, but should be:
Avoid those frustrating fees and keep your CSA (Compliance, Safety, Accountability) scores low with the Driver Qualification Checklist. You already maintain Driver Qualification Files for your fleet, but are those files complete? The DQ Checklist has the answer.
DriverReach’s DQ Checklist quickly identifies any outstanding issues in each driver’s qualification file. From medical examinations to endorsements and motor vehicle record inquiries, it’s at your fingertips. Gone are the days of staying on top of each driver. Simply pay attention to any items in red that need your attention and get them to green!
Not sure where to start? The how-to is part of the checklist. With in-app education and guidance, your recruiting team will learn the why behind the required documents. And, the DQ Checklist includes links to FMCSA to help train new employees on the regulatory requirements.
💡 Pro Tip: Connect DriverReach to platforms like SambaSafety with our native integrations. Sync SambaSafety's MVR monitoring alerts directly to the DQ Checklist for compliance that’s always DOT audit-ready.
DriverReach’s enhanced eDocs feature makes it easy for fleets to create, manage, and send electronic document packets for hiring, onboarding, announcements, and more. With eDocs, truck driver recruiters can bundle important documents together in customized groups, saving time and reducing reliance on third-party signing tools.
Using custom labels, recruiters can organize documents into specific packets that can be updated as company needs evolve. For example, sending a standard onboarding package to a new driver is as simple as selecting the right label, and eDocs automatically bundles all necessary forms together—no more manual formatting or document assembly.
Going electronic with CDL driver applications benefits the recruiting process, too. After applicants use DriverReach to apply, recruiters are able to quickly update or correct applications before sending them back to the driver for review and approval. This fast collaboration process, made even easier with in-platform text messaging, gets applications completed quickly.
Data is easy to come by in the digital age, but making sense of the data and taking action is another story entirely. DriverReach’s recruiting reports are designed to help fleets turn data into insights that improve your recruiting process, increase efficiency, and drive better results.
Hiring CDL drivers is a complex and time-consuming process. In order to improve how efficient your team is at recruiting, hiring, and onboarding, DriverReach has key reports ready to go out-of-the-box for our customers, including:
All of these reports help identify bottlenecks in your process so you can improve time-to-hire, cost-per-hire, and any of the other metrics you’re tracking. Building a data-driven culture means fleets can spot safety patterns quickly, resolve compliance issues faster, predict future safety risks based on past performance, and improve retention and safety.
These features—and many more—empower our customers to achieve amazing results. From dropping the recruiting marketing spend to $0 or staying 97% audit-ready at all times, leveraging software tailored to your industry makes a lot of sense (and saves dollars).
Whether you're just getting started or looking to optimize your existing recruiting workflows, we’re here to help. Schedule a personalized consultation with our team to learn more about how these tools can enhance your recruiting process.
