I just finished training with Maverick flatbed division, I can tell you that they dont play they are very serious. They have very good training, u stay on campus they have a hotel on their property wuth vans u can use, they have a gym an a basketball goal plus a walking track, its a real nice place but you will have a roomate. You do classroom for a week they feed you the first week an give you $50 they only feed lunch your on your own for breakfast an dinner, you do hands on training the next week, that last day of hands on you find out who your trainer is. Overall the training is great but some of the reasons they send people home is petty but i understand.

Thanks for the advice Im heading out to Maverick Saturday to begin my flatbedding career me an a classmate of mine leave out at the same time. Still a little intimidated but failure is not an option, keeping a open mind an ready to learn as much as I can an get my career started. Keep you guys updated on my progress.
Question: can u pay bills or shop off line with the cards they put your check on, i have a savings account but it takes my bank forever to issue a new atm card.

I got my cdl June 20 i got approved for Maverick Transportation. I was suppose to start yesterday but Thursday i got a call for an interview on Tuesday for a local job driving for Pepsi. Thursday i got a call from Swift they want me to come out next Monday. A lil confused right?
The entire time i was in school the only company i applied for was Maverick but after talking to a classmate that already went through their training got cold feet don't know should I go to Maverick, Swift Transport, or take the local job at Pepsi. My classmate say maverick is very strict and will send you home at the drop of a dime.
