New driver, looking for a job. Advice from experienced drivers. Thank you. .

Thanks for your advice. What you think of Schneider? I watched training videos and orientation, and I'm impressed. Thinking about applying with them next week.

 

Yes thanks very much for your advice. I have a great deal of respect for people like you, that have experienced the first year of trucking, and with their experience want to help others like myself, starting. I'm a responsible person, I had my own business in ground transportation here in Chicago for years, I closed it down due to covid 19 outbreak. Good thing i got my class A cdl, 2 years ago, and kept it updated. As we can see, now time has come to use it. I'm not gonna make the mistake of " Chasing money ", because I know, that's not how it works. Money will come, but with time and experience. It took years to earn a living in my business, as they say, " Knowledge is power ". I want to learn, that's the key to make money. I'm thinking both, either Schneider or Swift. Which ever calls me first. Thanks again for your help, be safe.

 

Perhaps might be. But again, I'm not gonna make the mistake of chasing money. That will come with time and experience. I really want to learn, that's the key to make money. Thanks again for your help. Be safe.

 

Thanks again. But to be clear. Because I don't know anything about trucking. I'm looking into the big carriers because I know, they spend millions of dollars on training new drivers. And i will never leave their training facility without knowing how to operate a semi . That's what i mean by learning. If they are big companies and they train well, ill call them, sure.
