cowan requires one year... i know back in the day bowman hired students but i'm not sure now... i use to see them go up 95 in central va with tractor supply dry vans and flats with steel pipes.. i called the recruitment number a while back and they said a year but they couldnt hire me anyways because they had shipped all of their terminals out of virginia

What i did in school was research the hell out of all these companies. if I were you I would apply to anyone that you even think about going with. that way you always know if they will even hire you. then once you get the list of companies that are willing, go back through and compare. The way the pay plans are set up it takes a little bit of effort to really figure out which is the best fit for you. take in account health care and maybe 401K. the school i went to lasted 18 weeks I started applying after the first month. the companies that hire students are used to the process.
also consider the time that you plan on working there. after your first year you have a lot more options than as a student. assuming that you didn't get into an accident. :?
