I just graduated this week. Out of my top two choices of companies to work for, I have decided that US Xpress is the best fit for me. I have learned a lot from these forums and appreciate all the advice I have gotten from everyone. I will go to orientation at Tunnel Hill. I was told that when orientation ended on Friday that I would most likely head out with a trainer. I am excited to finally get out there and I think USX is a good company to work for.
Does anyone have any advice or info that you think I should know beforehand regarding orientation, training, the company itself, etc...?
Going with US Express on 7/23.

Get on a dedicated account asap. Talk with your recruiter. Don't do OTR.
Speak with them about a dedicated account that is mostly drop and hook.
Will you being teaming ? -
I have to team for 8 weeks after training but am going solo for sure afterwards. Why do you say dedicated over OTR? ALSO, I heard that there isn't any open dedicated around me. I live near cleveland Tennessee.

According to the USX website, they have a dedicated for Chattanooga which is down the road from Cleveland. After training and the 8 week team commitment, put in for dedicated out of Chattanooga. The ad says hiring across the state of TN. Go to the USX website and click on hiring locations. Then on the drop down menu click dedicated.

Talk with your recruiter now about it. That way they'll get you set up for before it fills up.
