    They'll put you in a truck with a trainer for a specified number of miles, then you'll get your own truck.

    Talk to a recruiter; they'll give you the details.

    Prime doesn't do a "refresher." You'd have to go through the entire training program, IIRC. Maybe Chuckie or SE could answer your question better...

    Sorry about that. I had my cdl before I surrender it to dmv and start all over in prime training course, but once I got there I was told that I did not have to give up my cdl which was already too late. You would need to ask a recruiter to ask their supervisor or manager to see if you can get in the training program with your cdl. I don't think the recruiter really knows. Even tho they should be informed.
