Research notes
Employer-controlled Manatal recruiting post accepts 24 or 26 ft box trucks, 2013 or newer, and explicitly mentions new MC numbers. It separately requires six months verifiable OTR experience and states no SAP/DUI/moving violations. New authority does not mean no driving experience. Program advertises lower-48 OTR, mostly Midwest/South, Illinois orientation and home time every other week; these do not guarantee current lanes or route availability. Live initial application for the Miami posting was inspected: full name, email, phone, optional cover letter, required resume and terms/privacy checkbox; no personal information entered or submission made. Posting links to FMCSA identity USDOT 3496735 / MC 1152684. Insurance limits, authority arrangement, crew, liftgate, deductions, factoring permission and payment timing remain unconfirmed. Do not import different 2012 truck-age/liftgate/fee claims from expired third-party ads. Advertised gross/take-home and average-rate claims are excluded from BTO qualifications. Confirm all written contractor terms. Source checked confirms published recruiting evidence and initial application, not acceptance, available work, earnings or payment reliability.
