I will be starting orientation next week for experienced driver. I have two and a half months experience in a day cab. I’m not worried about the drug test or physical. What happens if I fail the driving test or they tell me I need more training?
Will they send me home or will they put me with a trainer?
I hear people get sent home and I really don’t want to be one of those people. I’m willing to learn and listen

Don’t worry, it’s Schneider. You will be sent to OTR without any problem.

Dragonheart Thanks this.

The key words in your original post is your positive attitude and expressed willingness to listen and learn. SNI will see to it that you’re road ready. It’s a solid place despite all the passive aggressive, sarcastic bitterness of the haters on here who will attempt to diminish your new found employer. Best of luck.

My experience with Schneider was a few years ago, but some of the guys coming though only had to go with a trainer for a a week. Literally a route out from Dallas, up to Missouri, back to La for Paper, then back to DFW.
When people failed the road test(speeding was an automatic fail), they just had to retest with the next group.(few days later if were the Monday group, following week if you were in the Tuesday group)Last edited: Dec 1, 2018

If you’re really concerned about it just tell your recruiter you’d prefer the full new grad orientation. That’s what I did with 8 months experience since I’d been out from behind the wheel for around a year. 2.5 months is really only enough experience where you’re not crapping your pants every time you turn the key IMHO.

You should be fine. I worked there when they were still using cabovers. I only trained for two weeks
