Schneider gave me a trainer who was only legitimately there for the money, and thus I was never actually 'trained'. Orientations are offered on a weekly basis.ĭuring the three-day orientation program, attendees receive an overview of pay, benefits and other Schneider offerings. This is a paid orientation program, with lodging and meal expenses covered by Schneider drivers who must travel more than 100 miles to an orientation site will be compensated for their transportation expenses. The sessions held at the new locations are open to drivers who have gained professional truck driving experience either as an owner-operator or company driver. This move, combined with an addition of three sites at the beginning of the year, expands the network of Schneider’s nationwide orientation sites from six to 12. In June, Schneider began offering its orientation program at three new sites – in Indianapolis, Atlanta and West Memphis, Ark.
Experienced truck drivers interested in joining Schneider National now have several new places to turn, the company announced.
