Landing the Job

1) Read the full posting and note must-haves. 2) Tailor your résumé's top 3 bullets to match. 3) Apply on the official site. 4) Log it in your tracker. 5) Follow up after 5–7 business days.

Highlight anything showing reliability, safe driving, customer service, timeliness, and handling sensitive information — even from non-courier jobs (rideshare, food delivery, retail, warehouse, caregiving).

"Why medical courier work?" — "I like being on the road and I want work that matters. Knowing a lab result depends on my delivery keeps me focused."

"How do you handle traffic delays?" — "I plan buffer time, check routes before leaving, and contact dispatch right away if I'm going to be late."

"What would you do if a package was damaged?" — "Not open it, secure it, notify dispatch, and follow the incident procedure."

"How do you protect patient privacy?" — "I never read, share, or photograph labels beyond what's needed for scanning, and I keep items secured and out of sight."

What does a typical route and schedule look like? Is this W-2 or 1099? Who provides the vehicle, fuel, and insurance? What training do you provide? How is mileage or pay calculated? What's the path to more hours or routes?

Red flags: paying a fee to be hired or to buy a "starter kit"; being sent a check to deposit and send money back; requests for your Social Security or bank number before an offer; guaranteed high earnings; interviews only by text chat; email domains that don't match the company.
