My Brief Time at Schneider Bulk

It's funny. At Schneider, you read their offers, then are disappointed by your checks. At my current job, you read the contract and are STILL pleasantly surprised every week.

 

Do they hire new drivers?

 

Lately yes, but only at certain locations, and mostly for teams.

 

good to know. i thought about contacting them to get the tanker experience but so far i haven’t really found anything saying it’s better than the flatbed gig i’m currently doing.

 

Bro... You're as valuable to a company with those credentials as a pure uncut 5ct diamond. I say go ltl. Old Dominion & Estes are the top dogs. I work at Estes so ask me whatever you need.

Keep in mind Estes is far from perfect but you'll definitely be making a.70 cpm TO START for a fact.

 

@MSWS --

If all else fails...and you're still looking for a CDL job.....here's a current (as of this writing) job opening with Swift...dry van...OTR....in MS:

Swift Transportation -- dry van -- OTR -- min 6 months exp

Swift's nearest terminal to you is probably going to be their facility in Mobile:

Swift Transportation Mobile, AL Terminal - Swift Transportation

With the general freight market tightening up (for the gory details--see/read the thread, "Can somebody please help me stay motivated? | Page 6 | TruckersReport.com Trucking Forum | #1 CDL Truck Driver Message Board (thetruckersreport.com))....Swift is a pretty darn good place for a relatively new driver to be....they will likely have the freight to keep you running....

BTW: whay happened with Foodliner (post #13)? Any luck?

It's the auto restriction that's hampering you. I jumped into ltl with no experience but did have 2+years otr experience.
