Tyson Foods

Yes, they do hire students right out of driving school. They have a few selected schools they will pull drivers from. Here it's CCC&TI and CVCC. I went to the College in Hudson to talk to the recruiter for the Wilkesboro terminal.

I have 17 years of driving under my belt. I like it here so far. This month I made the most in a singal month without a bonus included than I've ever made.

 

The big difference is at Tyson we get paid layover without a fuss. If we sit 24 hours we get paid no ifs, ands or buts. Just this week alone I was paid 3 layovers and still made $1200 on elogs.

 

thank you driver . i really dont know what to tell , i dont know whom to believe or a driver or a recruiter, please dont get me wrong im still confused . but thanks anyway 4 the help i ll keep looking around the block 4 companies looking 4 newbies, this economy really hit me bad.

 

If you call the number on the website they will direct you to the correct place. In this area Joe Blackburn does the recruiting. You have to go through him before Springdale gets a hold of you.

 

what is yalls hometime i live in central fl been thinking of putting a app in with tyson thanks would like to run southeast if i could love reading yalls post

 

I don't believe Tyson runs into Florida.

 

ok thanks i have seen there trucks down here while i was unlaoding at publix i guess they just bring it down here thanks for the info

 

hey aracos, how is tyson treating you. compared to stevens?

 

starting in 1st week in april. Looking forward to starting. there are deff a lot worse outfits to work for then tyson. Benefits a really decent and trucks are of decent condition. been off the road for 4 years and getting back in again.

 

I've been with Tyson for 3.5 yrs and if your looking for perfection that's a fairy tale every company has something someone does not like. But we've had a lot of drivers leave only to find the grass is not greener on the other side I'm not going anywhere the pay is great the benefits are great and if you can make it to a safety meeting they feed you a steak dinner 4 times a month. I plan on retiring from here and hopefully run part time for them when I do retire.
