Understand the workflow

Truckers Data brings driver applications, documents, consent records, employment verification, notes and tasks into one recruiting workspace. A company is the carrier or recruiting organization you work in. An application is one driver’s application to a company; the same driver can have previous applications.

  1. An admin configures the company’s welcome information, positions and consents.
  2. A team member shares the company’s application link or a referral link.
  3. The driver completes a full application, or submits a compact intake form.
  4. Your team reviews the record, assigns an owner and moves it through hiring stages.
  5. Collect missing files, request employment verification and record follow-up tasks.

Start with form settings, consents and sharing an application.

Know which workspace you are using

Control or fieldWhat it does
Carrier adminManages the carrier’s configuration, team, consents, integrations, billing and applications. Can configure collaboration with a recruiting company.
Carrier userWorks with applications allowed by their application-visibility setting. Company information is read-only; administration controls may be absent.
Recruiting adminManages the recruiting organization and can work with linked carriers. The company shown on an application tells you whose hiring workflow and consent set it belongs to.
Recruiting userWorks in the recruiting company’s application workspace according to their visibility setting. A recruiting user does not automatically receive the recruiting admin’s cross-carrier workspace.
ApplicantUses the company’s public application form. Public forms are separate from staff settings and internal notes.
Employer contactUses a verification link for a particular employment-history item. They do not need your staff login.

Run a small end-to-end check

  1. Confirm that the company name, contact information and positions are correct.
  2. Review each active consent before sharing a live form.
  3. Open the Full application link in a private browser window and check it on a phone.
  4. Use an authorized test identity to complete the intended path.
  5. Confirm the application appears under the correct company and owner.
  6. Check the Files, Employment History, Emails and Activities tabs.

Configuration is company-specific. If a recruiting admin is configuring a linked carrier, open that carrier’s company record rather than assuming the recruiting company’s settings apply to every carrier.
