This is a competitive position and there are other drivers actively applying, so the sooner we can get it done the better”.

“If you insist on doing the application yourself then I can send you my intelliapp link and I’ll need you to fill that out as completely as you can. The more info you provide up front the faster we can get your application process moving along.

“Sound good? Ok, so I’ll let you go for now but be sure to save my number so that when I call you back tomorrow with updates or to get more information then you’ll know it’s me and be sure to answer the phone. I’ll keep in touch with you throughout this process to make sure everything happens quickly and smoothly, as well as to answer any additional questions you may have.
