    What's up everybody, I got scheduled for a phone interview with Schneider for tomorrow. I was just wondering if anyone knows if it matters or not on having your hazmat endorsement to work for Schneider? I took my hazmat once and failed it :biggrin_25516:. Only endorsement I have is Tankers. Does anyone know if they make you take the hazmat test for them or if I would have to go back to hell (DMV) and take test again?

    No hazmat means you cannot haul hazmat loads. It is a written test. You can take it up to 5 times a day. You do not have to be perfect. The more times you take it in a row the easier it gets. They tell you the answers when you miss them and there are not that many questions. If you think the DMV is hell, I have an exwife or two, I would like to introduce you to.

    Get the hazmat, most companies pay you 10% more for having it.

    If you have the time go ahead and get the (TWIC) Card, it will help you get into secure ports easier.
