Profile For Trader James

Kevin,

I am also coming back into trucking after a hiatus and after looking at all of the major and even minor players, I ended up choosing to go back to Schneider. They do want be to go back through their 3 week training program at the OC closest to me which is absolutely fine, but there isn't any commitment on my end other than concerning the sign on bonus offered. I have applied for a regional run where I will be home on weekends and it comes with a $10,000 sign on bonus if you have driven at least 3 months (not sure about how long ago that 3 months needs to be within). The bonus is paid out 20% @ 45 days, 20% @ 90 days, 20% @ 6 months and 40% @ 1 year. No payback required if I leave before the year is over, I just don't get the rest of the payouts if not employed on that date. I do know Schneider has a tanker fleet and it is my understanding it is food grade dry goods, but I might be mistaken. I really liked the company when I was with them before, but had to leave for purely personal family reasons. I'm excited about starting orientation this coming Monday.
