Best Companies for Driver Training and Hiring
Any suggestions for companies??? I dont have my CDL yet but definatley want to get into the industry and I dont want to waste my time talking to recruiters who BS you just to get you there. I am looking for a company that pays decent and good benefits. Im not too worried about home time seems how i dont have any kids or anything (at least none that i know of) I want to try my best to get with a good company at first cause i really dont like jumping companies. Also, what are some of your oppinions on a lease/purchase programs??
Thanks for everything in advance. -Tracy |

"Leases" are done only for the benefit of the company. Almost all of them are "rip-offs". Stay away form them at all costs. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true.....then it is.
If I had the slightest inclination to be an Owner Operator, I would buy my tractor and possibly lease on to a company, or get my own authority. But I would never "lease a truck" from a trucking company. On the other topic... a good company to start with is CFI. They have a school arrangement. It is different than the others. If you are accepted into the program, you pay $1000.00 of the school cost, they pay the balance, but you do not have a contract binding you to serve an indentured servitude to pay off anything. If you want more information about it, call 1-800-641-4748 and speak with Christine Lathan in Recruiting. Tell her "Skywalker" sent you. There is no referral money in it for me.... I'm not a recruiter, and I don't work for CFI. I did drive for them for 7 years and know the company well. And the only reason I left was due to needing to be closer to home because of my wife's health issues, otherwise I would still be there. You can also go to http://www.cfidrivers.com and log on and read a lot about the company from Drivers and Students there, and ask questions about the company. You can also do a search on this site for information about CFI and get alot of information about them. |
