| I am thinking I want to try bulk once I graduate my PTDI certified school. I know Schneider will hire out of school. Who else would you reccommend? |

if Superior would take you, that's probably the best bet, they are a great company.. |

Their closest location to me is a 2 hour drive. I doubt they will hire me. |

well, you would probably only be driving there every 2 weeks or so if you want to go national. it wont hurt to call them, you arent by any chance close to the Chattanooga terminal are you? if so, I have a name for you to talk to. |

Superior has a terminal in Chattanooga? I've been talking with the Morrow, GA TM about hiring on with them when I get my Class A next week. But they may not have any open trucks. I figured Augusta would be the next closest terminal - which I'm not opposed to considering - but if Chattanooga is a possibility they are way closer to me. Their website doesn't list a terminal there. Is that a new location? |

A driver I work with used to work for them and they called him last week and wanted him back, the guy said he would have to park at the Chattanooga terminal. I will call him and ask him where it is, and get the name for you, I think it's over by the river right down the street from Quality Carriers Terminal but I will post as soon as I find out for sure |
