ask your questions about prime inc here

@ Jamie, are you still going to prime? Or are you happy with swift? I remember. Reading your thread when u started with them. you are one of the reasons, I didn't bother going their .kowing from your exp that they would have me waiting on a trianer .so I went with central 😉. Then jump ship to werner, been here almost a year, but I want to pull flatbed so I'm heading to prime.

 

Not sure if anyone will know or not. This is a sleep apnea question. I had a sleep study last week because my insurance out of pocket was met and it was covered 100%. I have the report that shows I have mild/moderate apnea and the doctor recommend I discontinue CPAP. Do you think this would be acceptable to the Prime physician. I have a CPAP but don't want to cart it across country if I don't have to.

 

Hello, I wanted to know If I would qualify into Prime's training program before I would fill out the application

- Had a CDL Class A with all the endorsements except hazmat since I was 18
- Been working for 3 years
- No accidents or tickets
- No record on my background

 

Do you have any combination vehicle experience?

 

I would bet it would be much like prime's DOT phisical rule too. You probably would have to use Thier test .

 

Thanks. I'm gonna go ahead and pack it. I can always ship it back home rather than cart it on a truck if I don't need it.

 

If you've been diagnosed with sleep apnea you will need to show at least 30 days use before coming to orientation if Primes doctor concludes you need to continue use. I'd continue use if I were you.

 

I never worked for a trucking company but I've driven over the road with a owner operator and he taught me well. I could do the basics on my own

 

Just curious... you shouldn't have a problem getting in. Without experience they'll start you as if its your first day in a truck. Use the experience to get as much as you can from it... chances are your previous experience will pay off in TnT.

 

So that would require me to go through their school too ?
