    Oh no, sorry, good thinking in some situations but because Raven is smaller than most megas by far. They do not have all of the personnel as some carriers. When getting on with them all the people hired on goes through Jacksonville. (Notwithstanding the recent hiring for local drivers in Ohio.) After submitting an application it's best to call the recruiting department and inform them that you submitted your application and talk with them about your situation and inform them, if approved, when you want to attend orientation.

    Monday morning call them and let them know your husband submitted an application. They will take it from there for you. Good luck!

    That is more like it! How many miles did you run to earn that?

    I'm currently not at the truck but when I get back tonight I will look it up. It isn't hard to find once you get use to it.

    Raven announced earlier today that starting Jan 1 2015 all drivers will receive a 1 cent pay increase. So instead of drivers starting out at .43 they will start out at .44 and those who have 5 or more years will max out at .47 1/2. Pretty cool

    Is the "max out at 47.5 cpm" a true mileage pay or are they including any perks in the 47.5?
