Once I start CDL school I am going to start hitting up the recruiters like there is no tomorrow.
Any advice on questions to ask?
If you get an offer, do they usually put everything in writing, such as what you are going to get paid, before you go to orientation?
If you are applying for a certain position, lets say OTR vs regional or tanker vs flat bed vs van or maybe the position is advertised as a certain flex time position like 7on/7off or line haul or a dedicated route etc.... and you get hired, are they actually hiring you for that SPECIFIC position or do they advertise specific positions and then surprise you at orientation?
I think one thing I am learning is you need to ask a lot of questions to get the actual break down of pay. It seems lots of companies like to tell you a CPM figure and the recruiter tells you you are going to be paid that amount and then next thing you know it includes per diem, safety bonus, MPG bonus, or they deduct CPM every check for certain things etc...... and your actual CPM pay amount is much lower.
I think my biggest fear is I am under the impression I am getting hired into a specific position at a specific pay and then once at orientation it is all different. How do you avoid that from happening?
