The other post answered the heart of your query but I notice you say you are a student. Are you attending a truck school at this time? If you are, according to the recruiter I was working with at Prime (have decided for personal reasons, nothing wrong with the company, to go elsewhere for now) they are not accepting "D" seat drivers which are drivers who have attended a school other than their own. If you go to their school and through their training you are fine to go there. Otherwise, you will need to get some OTR experience before they take you. Call them to find out for sure.

Can you rephrase this question please?

Also, I have noticed you are going to posts that are months old and asking question were they has not been discussion in months? These posters may or may not get back to you.

I have done some research on this outfit. I never got with them. Go back to the forum called "I'm in Springfield" I wrote a bit on what I feel.

avoid prime , they suck, if you value home time, they don't, if you value getting paid for your driving, they don't!!! if you plan on driving within the dot laws, they do not observe the laws, you will have to do things like memphis to denver in 16 hours, 2,200 miles in 36 hours, i almost fell asleep at the wheel alot trying to meet their insane time tables !!! they do not respect their drivers, anyone going there will see for themselves
