The driver shortage is reaching crisis levels

Finding dependable truck drivers can feel all but impossible. With driver shortages and high turnover rates, it might be tempting to hire any available driver. But this impulse leads to increased turnover and wasted resources.

Hiring reliable drivers involves recruiting, screening, compliance checks, and placement. If your team doesn’t have the capacity to manage all these tasks, a truck driver recruiting agency like Pace is a great solution. We handle the hard work of hiring for you, allowing you to focus on final interviews and selecting the ideal candidate for the position.

When hiring qualified truck drivers, time is of the essence. Pace’s hiring, screening, and onboarding process helps companies grow their applicant pool (and business overall) in a matter of days—not weeks.

Hire faster and retain longer with Pace Drivers

We manage the hiring process with speed, clear communication, and honest reporting.

A faster process

To send through quality leads faster, Pace Drivers provides background checks upfront, complete with driving history, and compliance checks. We make sure each candidate checks all your boxes before submission. All checks are at our expense.

Quick and clear communication

We respond to candidate applications within 24 hours. After placement, quality calls happen on the first day, the second day, first week, bi-weekly, and regularly post-placement to ensure you and the driver are supported throughout onboarding.

Single point of contact

Each client has a dedicated account manager. Our account managers work with your organization nationally so that you can easily staff and manage all your regional teams. Drivers benefit from working with a single recruiter, and all our recruiters and account managers work closely together to streamline the process for drivers and employers.

Honest reporting

We report on our results. You’ll see how long it took from receiving the job to the candidate starting.
