Covenant Vs Swift (any info on prime?)

I have offers from both Covenant and Swift.

Covenant has a lot of team driving to start off. The pay seems decent 36-42. Insurance is good, pay for school is decent. I've read hundreds of reviews of all the megas but convenant has a lot of good revies and the bad reviews are what I would expect. Rarely in the reviews does someone mention pay being a problem. Teaming however...that could be an issue.

Swift pays a 36-37c a mile. Driving starts off with a trainer and then you go solo. Swift recruiter says (who knows if its true or not) there is a possibility in the future of doing regional type accounts if I was interested and an opening became available.

 

Yep, I am in kentucky. If there are any you think I should apply for, I'm all ears.

I have applied for quite a few and I have done research on a bunch.

Dart- Refused me because I had only 150 hours of school....they want 160. Makes no sense whatsoever. Especially since I worked for a month after school.

Werner didn't like my work history. Would be interested after 6 mos of experience but with 6 mos of experience I can think of better companies to work for.

Schneider wouldn't hire me because of an accident.

I have applied for some flat bedding companies but the reviews....there just not good. I'm talking, TMC, McElroy, Maverick. Even if I ignore the reviews, I am not interested for all the tarping that is involved.

Stevens transport- Horrible reviews from the tanker side and the reefer side.
CR England-- yeah, bad reviews.

I applied for Trimac, but they need experience.
Abilene Motor Express is just too far away. My wife doesn't want to live in Virginia.
JB Hunt requires experience.

Lastly, I had talked to PTL (Paschall) and they seemed decent. You had to team the longest, the pay was alright and the insurance was a little on the expensive side.

 

I live in North West side of Kentucky, an hour or so from Evansville, 40 mins from madisonville, 40 mins from Hoptown, hour and a half from Bowling Green

 

Magnum takes a year of driving experience.
Freymiller takes 6 months.

I will look into Abilene and see if that might work out.

Why Paschall though? They seemed alright, but nothing really stood out in my memory.

 

Alright, Ill check that out.
