I drove for JB Hunt. If you have the experience they are looking for, a clean (or the minimum issues like tickets) record as mentioned in the application instructions, and meet the requirements, you will make it. At orientation, you will undergo a physical assessment, which may include tasks such as climbing up and down steps within a certain time limit and stepping up onto a ladder rung and back down to ensure you can safely climb into and out of the truck. The dispatchers care, as do the upper management. I am connected to a few of them on LinkedIn. They will not allow you to drive on ice and in a bad snowstorm. Their motto for winter weather is, "Snow, drive slow...ice, no dice!" If you feel unsafe driving in the snow, they won't be mad. They believe in safety first, and loads can be rescheduled. I was paid $50 for a snow day that I did not drive. If you feel drowsy, send a message to them and they are fine with you taking a nap. When my A/C stopped blowing cold air, they made me get it fixed before I went any further down the road (even when I was not far from the receiver). It is a safety and a shutdown issue for the A/C not to work they said. They are a great company to work for. The best one I ever did. I did not want to remain over-the-road, so that is why I left. They keep calling me and never wanted to let me go. They just did not have anything close to home that I wanted or would do and be home more.

Thank you I do have years of driving but not over the road

If l were you, go to a better training company, who won’t treat you like a 2nd class citizen. I started at FFE. Not great, but wasn’t too bad.

Be prepared to be treated like cattle, in a big room with other clueless beginners. A good percentage do not make it through orientation……Some of these “ Boss -looking “ people looming around ,are actual grade A assholes. Lie right to your face. Be prepared for 65 mph trucks, and a lot of shitty confusing paychecks.l
