I have an opportunity to drive for Walmart, but I am unsure if trucking would be for me?

The minimum is 1 year working for Walmart to be considered for associate to driver program. You've got to have a clean driving record and able to pass a drug test. You've got to be in good standing in your current position. They'll talk to your managers to find out if you show up on time, have a good work ethic, attitude and that sort of thing.

At our DC I know of 3 drivers who went through the associate to driver program. There might be more but I just know of 3. The one with the least tenure had 10 years and the other two had 20+ before they signed up for the A2D. I know they get swamped with applicants from stores wanting in the program. It's not uncommon to get rejected a few times before being accepted into it. Just keep applying if that happens.

Also keep in mind there's a LOT of other opportunities within the company as well. You can get a college degree for free Walmart will pay for your education. If you want to advance it's all there in front of you. Good luck!

 

If the money isn’t as important as having plenty of time off idk why the OP would do it.
