    Watkins-Shepard has terminals in WA and their training is only 10 days, unless you request a longer training period.

    4 weeks out with your trainer, no team driving. After your 4 weeks (home time during that 4 week period) with your trainer you run 30,000 miles solo and are considered on probation, after that you are a full driver and will get benefits and .34 cpm i believe. Starting orientation on Tuesday in Phoenix so should be able to tell you more if needed.
