So I have put a app in at knight transportation for the squire cdl training program. But have yet to here anything from them. Does anybody know if any other companies pay you weekly from the first week in school like knight does? I'm kinda at a road block right now and trying to lay out my options because I will no longer be able to go to roadmasters as planned.

CDL:

Commercial Driver's License (CDL)

A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:

  • Any combination of vehicles with a gross combined weight rating (GCWR) of 26,001 or more pounds, providing the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the vehicle being towed is in excess of 10,000 pounds.
  • Any single vehicle with a GVWR of 26,001 or more pounds, or any such vehicle towing another not in excess of 10,000 pounds.
  • Any vehicle, regardless of size, designed to transport 16 or more persons, including the driver.
  • Any vehicle required by federal regulations to be placarded while transporting hazardous materials.

Dm:

Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager

The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.

Wonderful! Just wanted to make sure. Knight is a hard company to get ahold of so just keep trying at different times during the day.

Its really weird hearing that recruiters from Knight are so hard to get a hold of. They wouldn't stop blowing up my phone when I wanted to drive for them. What Terminal is the recruiter from that you're talking too?

Terminal:

A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.
