Merlin1477024 and eddytude Thank this. -
Let me know how it goes
-
The only other thing I could add, is yes, you made a good choice. -
hey guys how do u start a new post??? im new to this
-
The Schneider recruiter that spoke at my school today said you were required to get the HazMat endorsment within 90 days..I think...may have been 60, but you had to get it...he was discussing regional routes.
-
Then Tanker is the one that is not required.
-
I think not!! MOST tanker loads are HAZ-MAT!!
That is why you spend DAYS in a hazmat protective suit in tankerschool....
Simply put, Schneider wants any truck driver to be capable of pulling any load (within their division)...so they want all VAN drivers to be HAZMATT approved, and the tanker HazMat goes without saying! -

eddytude, Capt Gruuvy nailed it regarding Schneider. If you would permit me to add a few items:
1. There are actually 2 weeks of OTR training with a Training Engineer (TE) if you're a newbie. You are a guest in the TE's rig and driving his load assignments. My TE told me that SNI wants trainees to do 70% of the driving.
2. In the Charlotte, NC area they were short TE's, so some of my fellow students had to wait a week or two between Orientation and TE Training. However, Schneider will pay you while you wait.
I would recommend you search for RoadRaid3r's post on his recent experience with Schneider from Orientation to going solo. IMO, Schneider is a great place to start. Good luck!
