Decatur, GA Orientation. Any info?

Orientations are pretty similar at all of Swift terminals. You will be given a road test, whiz quiz, and possibly a new physical. Then you will watch videos about things Swift, fill out lots of paperwork and be bored to tears. Depending on your driving test you may be required to go out with a mentor for 50 hours to 240 hours. I may be wrong, and apologize now if I am, but almost all new to Swift drivers have to do at least the minimum 50 hours to get familiar with the qualcom and a few other things.

Good luck to you and welcome!

 

I promise you it will NOT be a 5 star hotel!

 

This was meant to be taken as a joke.

I was in the hotel business for years. Everyone's criteria for the star system is different. What I might consider a 2 star hotel could be someone else's 5 star.

The one Swift uses will have very basic creature comforts, and might even have some creatures in the room with you.

 

i did my swift orientation in decatur they put you in a red roof in which serves breakfast every morning your across the street from a walmart and a taco bell long johns silver combo deal. orienation consisted of driver taking a drivers test and doing your physical and drug test one the first day next day is alot of paperwork a log class is thrown in their as well as people coming in and talking to you its not to bad and they served popeyes for lunch from what i heard its whats they have always done

 

i Actually left back in april but am heading back next week on a dedicated account some of the cons can be the trucks can be run down especially starting out but if you find one you like hold on to it i was on dedicated most of time there so i didnt have many complaints made good miles due this. as long as you make your loads on time and dont hit nothing your good i enjoyed no complaints thus far
