How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Say you have a smartphone and know delivery apps. Most courier jobs now run through an app and training time is short.
If you have a clean driving record, write "no accidents, no traffic fines" plainly. It is what recruiters look for.
