CRST forces you to team. You will be matched with someone if you don't have a co-driver. Teaming can be very hard on new drivers. This, and the hinky way they go about issuing your CDL (you switch your license to an Iowa license, then switch back to home state) cause me to always warn people to stay away.
bkm0179 Thanks this. -
I have been extremely interested in Prime and as I have researched and followed forums have always seen them pop up the most for people like me. It looks like I will have to contact them though because they have not replied to my application. I think they do have their on school for training though and they pay you the whole time from start to finish and in your own truck. The companies that are interested in me and contacting me are Stephenson Trans, Central Refrigerated, FFE, US Xpress, and Drivers Solutions. I have read so much negative information about Stephenson, but at the same time hear they have the best trucks. That is one of the factors I am looking at because I don't want to work for anyone and end up in junk broking down on side of the road. My dad and a student at Stephenson that I talk to said that the only reasons people dog them is because they are very professional and strict which I understand. Who would want to work for a company that doesn't care about reputation, professionalism, and just let you run wild with no discipline. I am still waiting to see if FASFA is going to pay for my schooling. I don't see why they wouldn't because they just contacted me before I graduated and wanted me to reapply for 2013-2014 to continue my education towards my Masters. If you was in my situation or had to start over again which company would you focus on obviously out of the ones you already mentioned? -
