Herbie, Welcome to Trucking Truth! Stick around and join our discussions.

I can't speak directly for Schneider, but generally rookies (unless they have special endorsements) will make around $40,000 their first year - if all things line up.

Look carefully at Schneider's quote for $48,000. Do you see any "fine print", or an asterisk *, or does it say "the top 10% of our first year drivers can make ..."? Schneider's not a bad place to start, but, you know, you see advertising, and you get interested.

I will take another look but it did not say anything like that as I could see anyway

Hello I will be getting my CDL license on 11/06/15 road test day and Schneider has already given me a conditional job offer I have applied for a region position home weekly and next Wednesday I have a big phone interview/call with the recruiter to talk about the positions and pay but I would like to know if anyone has inside knowledge of the starting pay the minimum I found on there website was $48,000 a year and then all the way to $65,000+ being that I have no experience I assume I would be starting At the lowest pay but I would like to know if the $48,000 is where I would most likely be starting out at? Thank you in advance for any and all help!!!
