@Liahos my advice to you is sit back as long as you can let some of these offers come in but don’t wait in exorbitant amount of time as well and look over all the offers and see which one best fits you because never grab the first one that comes always look at all of them that come in and decide from there.
No New Trainees? Till when?

Still awaiting the monthly press release from the ATA telling us about the driver shortage..........Bumper, drvrtech77 and Dave_in_AZ Thank this. -
There's no more new drivers. Robo trucks are replacing trainees.
The violins you hear in the background are for all the trainers that have pimped trainees.frito bandito, stevep1977, Bumper and 1 other person Thank this. -

Well, you good folks gave valuable advice and after Schneider put me 'on hold' I applied to several carriers and got four acceptances ... I pursued them all in parallel and finally went with SWIFT thinking they being the biggest will probably have more staying power if the economy gets weak. Any way, the orientation is over and I've got the job and all, but now I'm waiting to be matched to a mentor so I can begin my 200 hours of OTR driver training ... just waiting to be called to start. So far they are putting me up in a hotel near the terminal, but surely this can't go on ... is there a way to help find a mentor?
Chinatown Thanks this. -
good luck to you driver.
DO NOT do anything that will get you posted on twisted truckers facebook page!!! -
Which 4 carriers accepted you?
