Some questions from a noob that applyed to swft school an hour ago

I may be completely wrong here but my Swift recruiter said it takes a 2 year commitment to completely pay off the academy training of $3,900 so you may need to stay longer than you are planning

 

Where did you get the letters?

 

Hey chubbs, if you are wanting to go conway. Why not work their dock for 30 days? After that 30 days as a yard jockey, they will train you to hold your CDL. Might want to check it out. I know it was one of my options here in St.louis. It does take a little longer, but you are still holding down a job and making money.

 

It's 1 year to pay off the loan and another year if u want the 3,900 back as far as i know

 

oh wow i didnt know that a buddy of mine drives for them pulling doubles ill give it a look but from what i hear u need to be a school grad and have doubles triples and hazmat endors

 

As far as i know u can get them from your refrenccs im not sure tho as i didnt get a call from a recruiter yet cause i did my app late last night but as far as i know u can get them from relatives as long as there noterized but dont my word for it soon as i find out and if i even get a call ill let people know

 

Here in STL you just need to Put your 30 days in their docks, then you work 30 hours/week paid and
10hrs/week unpaid training on their $ to get your CDL. Once you obtain that they will pay for those endorsements and such. And will have you drive for them. They train you the way they want you to do things, and boom. Your driving in a few months. Like i said it takes a little longer than school ls and such because your only putting in 10 hours a week for training. But you are still making good money through it.

 

Yeah they dont have that here in buffalo they req a class A cdl already wish they did cause it's sounds great

 

Well that sucks.. Anyway you can move to STL? lol. Anyway. Another good company to try for us PRIME, i'm not sure if theyrun out from where you are, but try their web page. Thats where im going next month. Www.Primeinc.com

 

So a person is free to boogie to another company at 1 years service without owing a tab? If they stay on for the second year do they get a $3,900 check at the end? My recruiter only answers my direct questions, never offers any additional info.
