Do not listen to the Rhetoric on here, go and stay focused on learning and form your own opinion.
Good Luck! -

-

I wish you students the best of luck! Be safe, listen carefully, watch everything that your trainer shows you and NEVER ever think you know everything.....if it ever comes to that then it is time to get out of that truck. By the way......know your 7 step airbrakes backwards and forwards along with your inspections. It actually wouldn't be a bad idea to get a CDL booklet from your local DMV and study up....all you will be getting is a crash course on everything. The learning comes from the road.AfterShock and oldcornbinder Thank this. -
I thought this post was a joke, and I am still not sure that it is not. Not trying to be offensive but I have never met anyone that talks like that, let alone writes like that. Also, these questions should have been asked before even planning on going to work for a company. Well, then again, it is Swift.

It is better to get rejected while you are still at home than to travel all the way there & get sent home. All of your history is in a computer somewhere & systems interlink very efficiently. Blame it on 911

Shonda22?
If so, I question how long and how many posts you've read here, or at any other truckin' related websites?
I read and reread all the posts contained within this thread, and I found nothing unusual about any of them. Actually they're pretty normal.
But I've read hundreds of such questions posed by many others that seem to be asked after the fact.
There seems to be no end to those who would sign the dotted line BEFORE knowing ANYthing about the company they've just agreed to go to work for.
Obviously that's a backwards approach, but not unusual, judging by the number of folks who are doing that.
I fail to understand the correlation of that comment to the questions asked. What does a certain truckin' company have to do with those who apply for jobs with them?
I've read basically the same type questions asked by many others who have applied with many truckin' companies other than Swift. Considering that fact, why do you single out Swift as a determining factor? I doubt Swift has much, if any, control on who applies with them, and/or the manner in which they do so, and/or whether they've done their homework and/or research thoroughly.
I'm not trying to be offensive either, but I hope you'll explain your reasoning.
desert_son and Lost Dutchman Thank this. -
