Few questions about getting into trucking?

1. Do most companies ask about sleep apnea when you apply? I did a sleep test recently and I was positive for it. I think the test was inaccurate. When I woke that morning, the machine was turned off. I told them about that and the lady mention to me that she didn't even check to see what time it went off.

2. I will be out for 3 to 5 months for the military. Can I count those months as Driving trucks as well? My company will put me on Military leave but not sure if it will show up on my report as driving.

3. I am looking to lease once I get off military order. I am looking for a good company. I know I can google this, but this brings up too many companies, that all say the same thing and they do not post much information. I have a few months as a tanker and some experience with reefer OTR. By the way, I stay in Mississippi. The two companies I looked at in detail are Schneider and KLLM. I worked for both. I worked for KLLM back in 2015 when the price was $0.88 per mile Now, they pay $1.02 plus FSC. Schneider pay by percentage but has a high truck note of $900 to $1100 weekly. The thing with Schneider, you can take your truck to just about any tanker, VAN, and Reefer company.
Those two companies are top on my list because I have the information on them. I would love to information about other companies. That includes Class B straight truck.

 

I will call them to verify, but when I look under job search, they did not have any jobs for Mississippi. I do like how they have the calculator set up.

 

Thank you for the companies. If you have any more just let me know. For Greatwide I see that they use SFI, which is Schneider's main lease company. I know for a fact that I will get approved from SFI.

 

The company I drive for ordered it. I ask today and they told me that it is reported to the company and DOT. I was actually put out of service today because I have not been using my CPAP
