Not sure why that didn't quote right my bad lol
Update: my orientation for Prime just got pushed back to 4/20 so I may see you there, Logan.
My recruiter said there's been a shortage of trainers and now an overflow of applicants.
Im still waiting on my background check she just started it yesterday told me itd take a day or two to get it back depending on my employment verification. Been studying the cdl book and using the high road practice stuff on here feeling confident im learning well, anxious to get in front of a truck and start learning.

I'll be starting orientation on 4/13 too. Excited to get everything going. I've been studying every free second I have and I'm feeling pretty good about the permit test. Looking forward to getting out on the road and learning the trade. Have some areas of concern for the driving part, but I know my trainer will teach me what to do so I can pass the driving test.
I'll be in Prime's orientation on the 13th also...but, I'm going to Pittston. Good luck everyone.

Yea Doc I feel the same way...excited and concerned, but I'm positive the trainers will teach us what we need to know. You going to Springfield as well?

Yea I'm going to Springfield. Looking forward to getting started. I'll see you there.
So my recruiter called me today and told me that my packet was complete and that I was good to go. Apparently a bunch of people that are starting orientation on the 13th haven't completed their packet. I take my permit test on Tuesday and have 3 days and 6 attempts to pass.

Welcome Logan. I filled the online app and got a call the same day from the recruiter. She told me to study general knowledge, air brakes, combination and tanker to get my permit. I think getting your permit first before heading there would free up time to study up on other stuff. After orientation I believe you hop on a trainers truck and do 10k miles and then head back to Springfield to test out for the CDL. Hope that answers your questions. I should know by tomorrow of all the details.
Thanks for the info. I actually just spoke with the recruiter Ive been going through to training materials on here as well as reading on my own to try and prepare myself. They said theyre just waiting to verify my employment and the background check shouldn't be any issues there. She said I should be going on 4/20 as long as nothing gets held up.
