    From CDL school to your own truck

    1. A recruiter calls you and reviews your CDL and driving record with you.
    2. Orientation, 2 days at most. Hotel paid, one-way bus ticket reimbursed, $300 for orientation once hired.
    3. 4 to 6 weeks with a mentor: backing, trip planning, logs and fueling. You are paid $650 a week.
    4. Your own assigned truck, about 1.5 years old on average, automatic or 10-speed.

    Straight answers for new drivers

    • "How often will I see home?" Every week, for your 34-hour reset.
    • "Do I pay for orientation?" No. Hotel covered, bus ticket reimbursed, and $300 once you are hired.
    • "Does my CDL school count?" If it was 120 hours or more, yes.
    • "What if I have a problem on the road?" Loads are planned for you, and your driver leader picks up the phone.
