Coming Aboard!

As close as they can. It really depends on trainer availability/proximity to you. You could get a trainer that lives in Georgia, be prepared for that. But Maverick will do all that they can to pair you up with someone as close to your domicile as possible. Check out this thread: http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...ny-questions-for-driver-trainer-maverick.html
Sarge was my driving instructor. Lots have asked him questions aimed at a driving instructor. Feel free to do the same. He ain't too scary.... he is the Maverick posterboy... we have started calling him "Hollywood." He now stars in the recruiting videos and all of the pictures and literature for Maverick. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-BP1ISP-Ms&feature=youtu.be

 

yeah I've seen him...I have no problem being with any trainer anywhere....just didn't know what to expect....Thanks again...How are they hiring all these drivers every week??? are they placing all of them?? are you guys losing people?? Just doesn't seem u guys would have much of a turnover rate??? Just wondering..

 

On average (to the best of my knowledge and personal experience) you could expect like 30 people on the first day of orientation. By the 2nd day it will be down to like 22-25. After the physical a few more will vanish. So down to like 18-20 now. 4-5 of them will be TCD and they will go out with their trainers straight out of orientation pretty much. So the flatbedders and glass guys will be all that is left to go thru the barn. By the end of the barn training, your class may graduate around 10-12. Most if not all will make it thru 3 weeks with a trainer and eval out successfully. 4-5 will be gone after 6 months for whatever. By the end of the first year maybe 5-6 of your class of flatbedders/glass haulers will remain. This is a hypothetical, based on my experience and from watching the program as a Maverick.

 

Not everybody can do this demanding job.

 

Yeah . . You gots to be a little skrate up krazy . . Come own!

 

I'm ready to get started and learn from u guys...I just got my bus ticket and confirmation today so I'll be there this Saturday morning...

 

Yes, I have read most if not all of them and I appreciate the heads up... U keep safe out there and good luck..

 

Sweet! Good luck. Take heed to the advice you see on here about orientation and Barn training... Seriously.
