Do they pay you for orientation?
Yes you get an hourly rate for On-boarding AND Orientation. Free hotel rooms too. Plus during the first week (On-Boarding) they provide you with lunches. The 3rd and 4th week you will be with a trainer M-F you will get 240 a day and stay in your own hotel room for free or go home daily if you live close enough.
You have to do this even with experience?
@truckandtravel740 yes! Everyone does on boarding. Then 2 weeks with a cdt mentor
Hey sir were you allowed to hold that paperwork for the pre trip?
Yes!
Congrats 🎉 Glad it's working out for you. Makes a big difference when you enjoy where you work
Congrats Sir, you made it, time to enjoy now 👍
Congratulations Driver!!
Congratulations
Good thing about going private. I don't think Walmart is going to go bankrupt or union strikes anytime soon. Good Job Man! Just don't know if I could handle the control aspect of it. They have a terminal out of Hurricane, UT but I never see them hiring.
I'm glad I got on. There's no union here...at least I don't think there is. What I like is that I tell them when I'm available to work and how long. If I'm feeling like crap I can shut down early or start later. Lots of freedom compared to the other company jobs I've had. Be safe driver
Congratulations and thanks for the motivation! 🎉🎉🎉
Congratulations 🎊🎈 I go to onboarding Monday 12/4….
Heck yes! Good luck!
@@ThisTruckingLife thank you I’ll be in Seymour! What DC are you at? And also I’m a content creator if it’s not too much to ask how come you didn’t start a new channel for your Walmart content instead of keeping it all on the same channel just curious?
@@Ezmoneyash Seymour too! And mainly to help the people who have followed my journey. It a race to the bottom out there, if I can get them to park their truck and try walmart out I feel like they'll stay and not look back...That's what I did. Plus my channel is meant to document my journey in the trucking industry where ever that takes me.
@@ThisTruckingLifeMakes sense! Hopefully I get to connect with you once I’m on and we shoot some content! I’m claiming it 😂😊
We shall see lol
Did you say that you can have the pretrip book in your hands during the test? Thank you for the video also.
Yes sir. But you can't go through it like word by word there's just not enough time this is a time deal so I would like highlight things that you might forget you know what I mean.
if i understand, it is 4 days of learning the truck/trailer components [again] ? also how long will you have a trainer/driver with you?
i am thinking of applying for walmart driver.
It's 3 days and the fourth is test day. If you mess up you can try again on th fifth day or come back the next week for "finishing school" all pay you. You will be with a trainer for 10 days. It's a Monday through Friday thing and if you have to stay out on the road for any reason you will stay in separate hotel rooms each night. As far as doing OTR and owning your own truck that's a huge risk ask me how I know of course I was my own authority so results did very LOL but 110,000 A Year Without the risk of paying for every little thing that happens to the truck and every license and permit yeah I'll pass I would rather pocket the money and be home more often with paid vacation you'll like it here they don't micromanage. If you could do me a solid when you talk to a recruiter ask them if you could put me down on the app as a reference that helps me out you can watch my most recent video explaining how that can help both of us out.
Will Walmart hire drivers with automatic restriction? My CDL school’s manual truck broke down and I was forced to test in an automatic
Yes. Theyre fine with it. They are phasing out the manuals too. All the testing is done in automatics unless you request a manual. Please consider using me as a referral! And good luck! Feel free to email me at TTLWalmart@gmail.com
Do they still run you through this when your already on a Walmart dedicated account with Crete and I want to switch over flawlessly and quickly
That's a great question. I believe you would still have to but I'm going to ask for you. I'll get you an answer when they get back in the office next year.
What Fedex division did you work for? I have been with Freight since 1997
I worked for a FedEx Ground contractor for linehaul.
@@ThisTruckingLife I’m considering retiring from here in 2 years then trying to get on with Walmart
Do you know what terminals walmart runs teams out?
No idea. Best practice would be go to drive4walmart.com and search your heart out! Let me know if I can help.
I tried Walmart took a big pay cut ,if you are a big fleet driver it will be a pay increase for You , you are used to being monitored 24-7 when they tell you they don't watch the inside camera don't believe them they do, I'm glad I gave Walmart a try I worked out of Beaver Dam could not average more than 2200 miles no matter how hard I tried I could end up in Northern Minnesota with a load of returns to greenfield In should be an 800 mile run only to return the load to menoneme or Beaver Dam for a senior driver to get the long run I became an otr driver for the independence , not to be micro managed , Walmart is better than the orange ,blue ,lite yellow and red trucking companies but if your the independent type , I would stay away ,as far as Walmart truck driving school and that is what it is, for backing I set up and backed in between the two trailers they staged on one shot , I was told if I did that again I would fail ,I had been a driver trainer at one point in my career, I knew how to perform a dot pre trip , but was told if I did the same thing tomorrow I would fail , needless to say I was not impressed with many of there professional Road team trainers , to be honest I wish i had quit the second day I was there i could have returned to my previous employer where I was already grossing 2 grand a week hard flatbed work but treated as a professional i was just looking for easier work .
Results will vary. I've tried everything but flatbed and fuel. This is by far the best. If you play their game you are rewarded. The onboarding backing procedure I did like you said the first time...they want to see how good you follow instructions. It's not for everyone. I work 5 days a week not far from home and easilyI still make 2k a week and right around 2000 miles a week. The benefits are worth so much more to me as well. Thanks for the comment driver! Be safe out thereon those highways and byways.
Do I need to quit current job before onboarding, or can I quit as soon as I pass the onboarding process?
I’m in onboarding now… don’t quit until you pass would be my advice.
Did you have to do an online assessment test? If so, any info on passing it?
Nope no online tests. I'm doing a q&a live Tuesday 1030 am come by if you're not busy
@ThisTruckingLife Thanks for the response. Sorry, I just sent you an email with the same question before I just saw this reply.
Do trucks have driver facing cameras?
Yes and no. Yes there is a camera facing the inside no that camera is not actually set up to record at all supposedly. That camera is one piece it's outward facing but also there is the cab camera they say is not activated. I mean if you're looking at Walmart as a career prospect you shouldn't really be worried if there's a camera looking at you while you're driving their truck you should be super safe and do the right thing every time all the time. We are professionals we are we are
Is the pre trip a standard pre trip.
Yes it's pretty much just like cdl school. The good thing is that they show you 3x what they're looking for plus you can take notes and keep the pretrip paper with you during testing
Did you get your uniforms right away after orientation?
It was about a month
@@ThisTruckingLife ok cool,
One more question what would u say it cost for one person for medical biweekly? The top ppo thwt walmart offers. Nobody o seen has done a video on that
Bi-weekly premier plan one person is under $40 dental like 10 and vision like 5. There are other medical plans though.
What did the people do wrong who failed/had to retrain?
I did a live answering some common questions ruclips.net/user/liveu0EaO31FXTk?si=RJbG_HXRFhU1X43p
One guy missed 3 lug nuts...but that wasn't all. Another guy never improved. And I can't remember what the other guy failed but he was a nervous wreck on test day.
@@ThisTruckingLife yeah I just found it on your channel bro. Appreciate the help man I’m really excited to get on, gonna really change my life if I can get hired. Getting married next month and trying for a kid so that money will be nice
Can the driver choose what kind of load to haul?
Nope you are a company driver therefore the company is your dispatch you can change things because of weather and stuff though.
I’m assuming you can’t apply right out of CDL school???
No I'm sorry you have to have I believe 30 months of cdla experience. But they do have a associate to driver program it's a 12-week program that gets Associates their CDLs and real world training and a real good paying job
