Am i considered hired

When you get your driver ID and Comdata card - then you are hired.
Not before.

 

You are not hired until you draw a paycheck. What I mean is that until you actually get money for being there, you are just a number and nothing more. YOU can't be considered an employee until that time. If Orientation is on their dime and you are not compensated, but when you are going on the road and are compensated, then when you hit the road, you are an employee.

 

I read the first sentence of the op s post...and said yep your hired...lol

J/k

 

You may not be able to consider yourself hired, but if you stay with Swift you can consider yourself screwed.

 

Union snatch 2 1/2 hours pay yet this month?

your a redneck.

 

Generally think about it as a probation period the trainer will access your progress and things go from there then you may have a time frame like 90 days where you are being evaluated cant speak speciffically for swift but that is how a lot of companys work just do your best

 

I got my training with swift tested out sent me home til they got trk 4 me they went thru a purge and my number fell in purge AND NOPE I NEVER GOT MY SWIFT TRK I can tell u this after 50hrs of training u will be driving trk as team depending on trainer u will be driving nite the other 200.

Awe yea look up that guy named tapeworm he work 4 swift in office
Swift use trainees 4 cheap labor 450 a week 4 70hrs a week they getting ova hard

 

A lot of companies will not let trainees drive after 12 midnight till 4-6am either. And if you can, make sure you figure out how to do your routing too, some trainers (at all kinds of different companies) don't like the trainees to make any decisions, it is just point the truck down the road and don't stop till I tell you.

Good luck, guess you may be there by now.
