    I start orientation with Schneider on Wednesday August 3rd! Four days later I'll hit the road with a trainer for a week, and then I'll team up with someone and begin hauling.

    Is it required that you team? If so, for how long?

    You have to start as a team driver, and they ask that you do that for at least six months. I was told they give teams 5000 to 6000 miles a week and keep them out for two weeks at a time.

    I am not sure I like that... I was hoping to be solo.

    Yes, that was my preference as well, but they want you to get seasoned a bit before they let you out on your own. You can apply for a solo position in six months and if you didn't have any problem as a team driver then I'd guess your chances are good they would let you make the switch.
