I am looking at going through SAGE for my education. The director has a relationship that will get me into CRST. Since I am paying for my education expenses, will CRST require that I sign a contract to stay with them for a specified period? Any idea on how long the contract could be?

They will if you request, or are part of, the Tuition Reimbursement program. It, IIRC, should be about 8 months long.
There are several thread on the subject here. -
His relationship with them is in the form of finders fee's and kickbacks that they give him.
They will take any warm body that has a CDL from most areas. So will all the other large carriers. -
If you ask CRST to reimbursh you it's 8 months -
I have never understood why companies want to charge you for the Opportunity to make them money..?
What a racket to get into. Do you know of any other profession where the employer charges you to work there? I have my CDL and have had it since 1985. I recently applied for a company, but because I had not been on the road for 6 years they wanted me to go through their school and charge me for it. I said no of course, and told them that I would not be paying anyone as I already have my CDL class A with all endorsements and would not Pay for the Privilege to make them money. They didn't seem to understand that.... -

I would look elsewhere. You don't want to go there.
The directors relationship is $$$$$. -
Ok, now is there anything positive about SAGE Trucking. It is funny, I thought about those things too. I need to do more research.

I had to have my license before applying to work at the company. The training I had to pay for was the company provided sales training. Even if I had been a highly experienced real estate sales person, I still had to pay to take their training.
