I applied and was offered a job driving for them a few years back out of New Holland, Pa. (I went with a flat bed company instead). They are known to be a good company though.

What kind of equipment is Tyson running now ? Still have the Macks or what ?

Just wondering does Tyson hire recent graduates? I did go to a pdti school. i went to the website but I couldn't find how to apply for a job? I did see about the benefits and pay and that all looks great.

Also on teh trucks are they governed at 62 and do they have apu's and or inverters??

10-4, hope things are working out for you with your flatbed company. Drive safe!

Tyson is currently using Macks and Internationals. There are some Volvo's but they are being traded in because lease is about to expire. The trucks are governed at 65-67.

Looks like they do.

• Trainee ($400 per week): Anyone with less than one year experience that meets hiring requirements.

How far out do they hire from their plants?

Since you live in the Pittsburgh area, you would be running out of the New Holland Plant. You would still be running 48 states. Tyson will provide you with a bus ticket to Springdale, Ar. for a 1 week paid orientation. After orientation, they will assign you a truck and you go from there.
