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.

Name the areas you know and the store types you have serviced (supermarket chains, independents, spazas) in your CV summary.
Recruiters check your licence first, so attach a clear certified copy and note any clean driving record.
