Thank you so much! Can I ask: why choose one school over the other? For example, SWIFT requires 200 hours of drive time with a mentor. Some companies require less but then I’ve seen people say we actually NEED as many hours as possible before going out alone. Also, since employer sponsored school means rolling over in to employment for a year, do you have any recommendations of one or another?

In most cases even 200 isn’t enough, you will realize it when you turn into your 3rd year. Some people just don’t belong on the roads in a cmv.
the more time behind the wheel with someone who knows and can teach you correctly the better. Unfortunately most of the time your going to try and kill your trainer as either they are driving for 6 months or straight up knuckle head.
good luck on the route you choose. -
Many other carriers listed are team or solo over the road being out for one to several weeks at a time. There are several other LTL carriers other than YRC that have similar routes and even better pay but with tuition repay contract.
the CDL classes are just what you need to get your CDL. The ride along instructor teaches how to real world drive and do the work.Chinatown Thanks this.
