That's good news, I agree, it can be intimidating... I passed my CDL in Nov. and it's been a challenge to find a company that will give you an opportunity with little or no real experience. I also did 160 hours one on one driver training for YRC, the academy I graduated from, and then the 160... But it seems normal for companies to expect an additional amount of time with their trainers Good luck with the interview and road test.

Hair follicle testing

Actually, yes... I'm asking for a potential team driver. Schneider has a position I'd and I'd need to sign on as a team. I've been with YRC for a while, I just can't handle the commute each day to my terminal. So yeah, "my friend" wanted to find out about the level of hair testing.. I appreciate the experienced drivers and moderators here. Always sound advice. Agree with keeping the roads safe.

Just wondering if Schneider is using more than the DOT standard 5 panel test when they test hair?
