Military and Recent Graduates Program
|
|||||||||||
Our Recent Graduate Program is available for recent graduates of an accredited, 140 hour minimum, truck driving school with 6 weeks of experience This program is not currently available for graduates living west of I-35. MILITARY Recognized as one of the nation's Top 50 Military Friendly Employers, we take immense pride in our record of hiring and supporting our nation's veterans. In fact, over 2,200 of our employees, approximately 17% of our workforce, have served in the military. So whether you're beginning your driving career or already have an active CDL, we know you have the discipline and the skills we value. Step 1: Driver Training Course Step 2: Skills-Finishing Program Likewise, if you already have an active CDL but don't meet our required minimum of three months driving experience, you may qualify to bypass classroom training. You'll be scheduled for a skills-assessment at a Service Center, where your driving and shifting abilities will be put to the test. If successful, you may be able to enter our Finishing Program directly. As a co-driver in the Finishing Program, you will have the opportunity to put your driving skills to practical use in a variety of real-world scenarios. Unlike other programs, our program is focused on providing you with hands-on experience under the watchful guidance of a professional. While some carriers may utilize trainees as team drivers, our emphasis is on preparing you for solo driving. You can expect to complete about 90% of the driving during your finishing course. You'll be paid a rate of $375 per week while in the six week Finishing Program. Once you complete the program and pass your final road-driving test, you will be upgraded to "first-seat driver" status and take dispatch as a fully-qualified solo driver. At this time, you'll begin earning a starting base mileage rate from 37 to 40 cents per mile, depending on the pay plan for your state of residence. You can expect average earnings near $50k per year as a driver. We enthusiastically seeks veterans for rewarding careers in transportation. Whether you have already separated or you're contemplating your future plans following discharge from the military, you can look forward to a successful second career with us.
