Thinking about joining the roehl team

I'd like to interject and ask a question here. Would someone describe the physical ability test?

I've been in physical therapy for 3 weeks dealing with my right shoulder. I've regained about 75% of my lost range of motion and the remaining % will take some time, just working it, exercising and stretching on my own. I do have nagging pain probably attributable to underlying conditions we all probably experience as we age. My PT therapist says I do have very good strength! So I don't think passing a test will be an issue. In fact, the whole time I was in cdl school, the shoulder was bothering me and yet it did not interfere with my ability to perform. (Didn't see a Dr until after graduation.)

Look forward to hearing about Roehl's test.

 

Nothing to bad, a few reps from like table to chest, and a few over head, but its light...sorry I can't remember the weight but it wasn't nothing, then you do some squats and climb on a trailer, squat under a trailer for a certain amount of time....even at 75% you should be fine, there looking for your heart rate to stay under a certain number according to your age, also if you have talked to a recruiter she will send you a packet and it will have a list of everything you will have to do

 

Perfect...Thanks! (I'm looking at National Van as that's all Roehl hires from my area, i think.)

 

Hi guys,

I'm getting ready to start CDL school myself and was looking into Roehl. I've liked what I've seen on the website and some other things that I've seen here. I had not seen the 11/3-18/4-25/6 that Coop mentioned. In ya'lls experience are they flexible on that? for example, If I start a cycle and need days 14-16 off can I stay out a few extra days and get another load or two or are they pretty hard on the 11, 18, 25? I don't think I'd really be interested in the hometime fleets because slip seating seems kinda hokey to me (not beating up anyone who enjoys it, just not my thing I guess).

Thanks for your answers, and I look forward to coming and working with you guys.

 

National fleet is 11:3, 18:4, 24:5, 30:6, 36:7. I'm pretty sure this is how it is setup. I usually try to do either 11:3 or 18:4.

 

You can stay out longer than 11 and shorter than 18, but you would only still get 3 days home until you hit 18 out.

 

Thanks Treefork. exactly what I was wondering about.

after 11 days, you get an extra day at home for every six you're out.

 

So it's 17/4 then?
