Why recent truck driving school graduates choose Schneider

[@jrvapor]

It goes like this you get a license I don't think it matters where you get your license as long as you don't get it from CR England (Central Refrigerated) out west, or Swift. Whether you get your license from a Truck school or go to a company and get it thru them I don't think it really matters, practice, practice, practice your backing and taking turns wide enough in city/town driving to make the turns, mirror checks. Remember your driving that Trailer too, get your shifting down, float or double clutch, it's a lot to remember in the beginning, and you will make mistakes, pay attention and hopefully nothing catastrophic will happen. 1st year of Trucking will suck you'll be lucky if you take home $500-600 a week, they're gonna ask you to Team Drive not a bad idea when you're starting out, Lots to learn, don't lease a Truck before you know the business like the back of your hand, Good Luck Rookies.

[@jrvapor]

Yea, No kidding 1st year Sucks balls, I definitely wouldn't lease a Truck unless you really know what you're getting into, and as long as you're gonna take the plunge to lease might as well buy your own truck, and you'll obviously know what's going on by then so why not be an owner rather than a borrower. That and booking your own loads, can make the difference between $600-$1000 bucks a week and any where from $3000-$10,000 a week sure you'll be paying for everything but you'll never make anywhere near the same profit otherwise, but occasionally you will have to bite the bullet and part with a lot of your hard earned cash, especially if you're out running like you oughtta be, the more miles you do the more maintenance it's that simple, Lots a Luck to all who take the plunge.

My first year I brought home 7-800 a week anyone taking warehouse money first year is just a moron and doesn’t wanna put the effort in finding someone that’s paying better

No problem. I am always here to help. Travel safe. -Jim

[@schneiderjobs]

No problem, Robert. Travel safe and keep in touch! -Jim

[@schneiderjobs]

That sounds great and we look forward to hearing from you. Keep us updated! -Jim

[@schneiderjobs]

Hi Tom. We do have a few automatics at Schneider, mostly in local configurations. -Jim

[@TheRtate2]

Hey, how many moving violations are we allowed to have to get hired?

[@schneiderjobs]

Our trainers are here to teach. You should be just fine. Apply on our site and a recruiter will be in touch. Congrats on getting the CDL and happy holidays. -Jim

[@Kel3030]

Liam, don't get discouraged. Yes getting into the US and Canada can be difficult. However it IS possible to get a work Visa for trucking. It is an in demand industry and quite simply there are not enough drivers to fill the jobs. You would have a much easier time getting into Canada though. We could use your help over here in the good 'ol US of A too. We were all at one time or another like you.

[@schneiderjobs]

@HickoryZClub Yes, but we are only hiring drivers 21 or older. Best of luck and we may see you down the road! -Jim

[@norellpolk]

i had gotten a grant for the tuition and went to one school called mid city it was not a good school because none of the instructors in the class didnt know anything including pretrip inspection.they didnt hardly know anything about being under the truck

[@jasonburks5911]

i have 2 years ref and dry van experance and a good safety record never late on a load i get it done

[@schneiderjobs]

Yes, we are hiring recent grads in Alabama! You would look good in orange!

[@mrChevyJones63]

I was looking into C R England's driving school to get my cdl but after some research I don't think they are the best choice for me so I started looking into other companies and Schneider seems like an excellent company to drive for.

[@schneiderjobs]

We hire recent grads too, but it depends on the job. Some accounts call for more experienced drivers. -Jim

[@schneiderjobs]

No, but you would have to meet the other requirements of the driving job. Job requirements are listed within the job descriptions. Best of luck and travel safe. -Jim

[@jonnytruckfest]

Can't wait to get on the road, Moving to canada as soon as i get my trucking experience in the UK after i get my PR status i'll be contacting schneider just going to wonder if there are any terminals in the manitoba area!!

I would LOVE to work for Schneider as a Truck Driver. I been hearing so many good things about Schneider. I honestly have not heard any negative things about Schneider. I'm 22, and I was planning to go to Roadmaster in Orlando, Fl. Once I graduate, I was wondering, how can I let Schneider know my interest on working for them?

[@schneiderjobs]

Yes, we do! Check out our website and apply. Feel free to message me for more details. All the best, -Jim

[@xtremeshredder]

[@schneiderjobs]

There are some good schools still out there and we do train drivers the "Schneider Way" at orientation to prepare them safely for the road. Check out our website for those schools. We're offering $6,000 for tuition reimbursement! All the best, -Jim

[@norellpolk]

[@schneiderjobs]

@spacefrog555 You would have to go to a school first. We’re offering tuition reimbursement to all truck driving school hires who owe the school or a finance company a tuition loan.

[@thoward1962]

When will automatic transmissions be available at Schneider?

[@jrvapor]

This is probably good for those poor guys who just came out of truck school, but these big companies, are the worst!

[@roberthall2224]

[@Qyndax]

Hello, Im wondering can i apply for your school. Im at the moment in Europe, Croatia but im thinking to go across ocean and live in Canada.

Best regards. Mario

[@timmy31987]

So I graduated CDL school, got my license, but I really don't think I got enough time in the manual truck (they had auto and manual.) I can upshift great but downshifting is hard sometimes. Will I get sent home if I'm not perfect at it in orientation?

[@NothMissouriWhitetail]

so I haven't drove for 3 yrs and didn't have much experience, how long would I be training and orientation?

[@schneiderjobs]

No, but we're offering tuition reimbursement and orientation is paid. Give us a holler at 1-800-447-7433 to get all the details. All the best. -Jim

Could u please help me out on this please, I have no license at all and prior to that I never had one. But I'm getting one very soon, I'm 25 yrs of age. My question is; would a organization in the transportation industry still train me to become a certified truck driver/CDL carrier?

[@calitruckdriver2025]

Bro, first you need a drivers license #1 after you get that. Find a good reliable trucking school... They will help you from there. Then choose if you want to go OTR or local whatever you decide ask them. But you need license first...Good luck.
