SWIFT DRIVING ACADEMY - MiLLINGTON, TN

GOING TO SCHOOL FOR SWIFT TRANSPORTATION OF ARIZONA WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE. YOU TALK TO A RECRUITER FROM ARIZONA, THEY SHIP

YOU DOWN TO MEMPHIS, TENNNESSEE TO CATCH A SHUTTLE. YOU ARRIVE TO A MOTEL, ASSIGNED TO SHARE A ROOM WITH FOUR PEOPLE, FOR AT LEAST UP TO A MONTH. ITS NOT BAD, USUALLY EVERYONE IS FROM DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE COUNTRY, THEY HELP EACH OTHER WITH FOOD, CLOTHING, AND OTHER ITEMS YOU MAY NEED OR HAVE FORGOT BACK HOME. SOME PEOPLE DRIVE AND THEY GO TO DOWNTOWN MEMPHIS AND EXPERIENCE THE FAMOUS PLACES AND AREAS WHERE PEOPLE HANG OUT, WHO LIVE OUT THERE. YOU MEET SOME AWESOME PEOPLE, THEY ARE DOWN TO EARTH AND THEY CAN LIFT YOUR SPIRIT AND SHOW YOU A GOOD TIME LIVING WITH STUDENTS.

THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL, YOU GO TO THE MEMPHIS TERMINAL FOR DRUG SCREENING AND YOU BRING MONEY FOR A PHYSICAL WHICH IS USUALLY INEXPENSIVE. YOU GET A FREE LUNCH, ITS GOOD, AND YOU SPEND ALL DAY TALK TO OTHER PEOPLE IN THE CLASS ABOUT THE FUTURE EXPERIENCE OF TRUCKING. THEY GIVE YOU A FREE BUS RIDE TO THE SCHOOL AND BACK.THE SECOND DAY, YOU GO TO THE MILLINGTON SCHOOL, WHICH THEY TELL YOU ABOUT CONTRACTS, DRIVING ON THE RANGE, DRIVING ON THE ROAD WITH INSTRUCTORS, AND POSSIBILY WORKING FOR THEIR COMPANY.

THE THIRD DAY, THEY PRESENT YOU WITH DRIVING HANDS ON IN A TRUCK TRAILER. YOUR FIRST TEST IS A STRAIGHT LINE BACKING, BUT YOU DO ALL THIS AT NIGHT.THEN, THE NEXT FOUR DAYS, THEY TEACH YOU THE SKILLS YOU NEED TO PRACTICE TO PASS FOR THE STATE YOU LIVE IN, BECAUSE SWIFT IS THE LEADING TRUCKLOAD CARRIER (TL) FOR OVER THE ROAD DRIVING COMPANY DRIVERS, THEY HAVE TERMINALS IN ALMOST EVERY STATE.

THE NEXT WEEK AND A HALF, YOU BASICALLY PRACTICE ON THE RANGE FOR YOUR PRE INSPECTION AND SKILLS TEST, WHICH ARE THE FIRST TWO SKILLS YOU HAVE TO PASS BEFORE YOUR ROAD TEST AT THE DMV. THE GOOD THING IS, YOU GET MORE DRIVING TIME THEN YOU EXPECT BECAUSE THEY LET YOU GET AS MUCH EXPERIENCE YOU NEED TO PASS THEIR TEST. BOTTOM LINE THE RANGE MAKES OR BREAKS YOUR SKILLS AS A STUDENT IN SWIFT BECAUSE THE ROAD TRAINING IS STRICT AND SMOOTH.

THE ROAD TRAINING, IS AT LEAST THE THIRD WEEK AND LAST WEEK OF YOUR TRAINING FOR SCHOOL, BUT IT IS CHALLENGING AND REWARDING WITH EXPERIENCE AND TRAINING. I CANT SPEAK FOR EVERYONE BECAUSE THE EXPERIENCE VARIES WITH TIME AND SCENARIOS YOU EXPERIENCE, BUT I CAN GIVE YOU A 85% GUARANTEE IT IS ONE OF THE BEST COMPANY PAID SCHOOLS YOU'LL ATTEND TO BECAUSE IT IS PTDI CERTIFIED, WHICH IS A PLUS FOR ANY TRUCKING SCHOOL.

THE LAST AND FINAL WEEK IS DMV TESTING IN YOUR STATE, WHICH IS REALLY NOT SCHOOL, ITS BASICALLY LIKE THE FINAL EXAM FROM THE SCHOOL YOU ATTEND. THE GOOD THING IS, IF YOU FAIL, THEY SEND YOU BACK FOR MORE TRAINING, WHICH IS FREE OF CHARGE, FOR AS MANY TIMES YOU DO FAIL AT THE DMV TEST SITE FOR WHATEVER STATE YOU GO TO.IF YOU PASS, THEY OFFER YOU A JOB AND ITS UP TO YOU IF YOU WANT TO WORK FOR THEM OR SOME OTHER COMPANY. I CHOSE TO WORK FOR U.S. XPRESS BECAUSE OF MY PREFERENCES, BUT EVERYONE HAS DIFFERENT TASTE FOR WHAT THEY LOOK FOR IN OPPORTUNITIES.

THANKS FOR ALLOWING ME TO SHARE MY EXPERIENCE WITH YOU, AND EXPERIENCE IS YOUR BEST TEACHER. DON'T LET ANYONE ALLOW YOU TO THINK OTHERWISE.
