Do those companies pay you .26cents a mile for all dispatched miles the truck travels while in training? Do you start making .30cents a mile as soon as you go solo? Do you get raised to .32cents a mile at 60,000 miles, .34cents a mile at 90,000 miles, and .36cents a mile at 120,000 miles? And do your training miles count toward these pay increase levels? Do you have the option to transfer to one of the Elite LTL companies after 1 year of OTR service?

Whoa Pardner, slow down a bit. Pre-hire means nothing, really. Especially from these companies. Finish school, attend orientation, get a truck assignment, complete training and see where you're at in 6 months. Bet it's not where you think it'll be.
otherhalftw and Mortar Man Thank this. -
Step 1. Orientation
Step 2. Training
Step 3. Complete training
Step 4. Truck assignment
Then your really hired !!! -
out of those 3 companies:
1st May
2nd Swift
3rd Werner
OTHER companies you NEED to look into:
Watkins Shepard
Conway Truck Load
and like said above pre-hires are sent to 99% of people that apply that dont mean your hired
American Truckerxlsdraw Thanks this. -
Pre Hire is just another way of saying :
If enough people quit & and we got enough trucks & you can drive , we might have a job for you ... But It depends
That's what it really means -
A gal I went thru school with is at werner and got thru orientation but no trainer yet.

Establish a better work history, and show you are a "stand up kind of guy" by paying your obligations.....maybe then someone will give you a chance.
Right now....you aren't what companies look for in an employee!
