To student drivers

I had no idea what I was getting into..
Went OTR, to aggregates, to the oil fields, and back to aggregates. It took me 6 years to hit my stride. It wasn't easy. I learned to love it. Can't imagine doing anything else, now!

 

if you are a recent grad there are a good number of companies that will bring you on. They will ask you to train with them. Keep in mind sme pay some dont. School means they taught you how to drive. Training teaches you the way the company wants you to do the job. Just some insight.

 

Schneider is doing a huge hiring thing now. But do some homework alot of big box companies are looking to add drivers.

 

Most have stay or pay, the big difference is the amount they want and the term. Siging on strt the 23rd. They have a year commitment and pay through training.

 

Good post, Sburke.

You can always pay for a private school yourself if you don't want to promise to pay them back. Please, look for those companies who reimburse for training. It makes a big difference. I paid for my refresher course, got on with a company that reimbursed $150/month, (Swift) stayed long enough that I wound up with a free CDL plus the experience involved. Swift paid me $450/week during the OTR training experience, which helped get a quick start generating income.
