Switching companies...Schenider and TMC/Melton
Hey, got couple of consernts and i want to know what best in my case, I worker for schneider for the last past 8th months and i been wanting to switch companies. I being wanting to move to a greater challenge like flat bedding.I have look into melton and TMC as some of my primary options. Even thougth I have a great relationship with schneider ,I feel like is time to move on to something better and more challenging. Now Should i stay till i hit one year with schneider or should i put an appliacation for either company mention above, now would moving to a diffrent company look bad in my record with such a little time as a experience drive. Free to any comments.. Thanks

Sure, jumping companies often looks bad. But, both places hire new(er) drivers. I've read that TMC will hire you right out of school, no experience. I know that Melton will hire you with 3 months experience, so they don't care about ship jumpers....but it isn't very easy to get on with Melton.

Its not east getting on with TMC either. They are very picky who they hire. Very picky. But good luck to you.
