- Swift mentors help our new drivers train on the road before they go out solo. They love sharing their experience and wisdom with new CDL holders, but also make extra money doing it. They're one of the reasons that in 2020, Swift student drivers logged 100 million miles with a crash rating that ranks in the top 10% of the Industry.

I love our new training program it way better what was.
As a mentor I get students who already been through 3 or 4 bad mentors. Truth be told the mentor pay is still too low to incentivize the good mentors to keep doing it. Swift should have an action plan to make all 2 year drivers into mentors and throw as much money at them to convince them to do it
Thanks for providing details on becoming a mentor
How are you all.
I am a new member. Sorry, can I ask some questions related to registration in the Switch Driving School?
What about a mentor that does local work? What's the incentive for a driver that does intermodal or some other fleet? What benefits are for those that steps up?
Mentors are 'trainers'.
I have to be honest, this is my third time being at Swift Transportation, my other times I allowed the Swift Transportation talkers ( haters) to feed my mind and never took the time myself to learn the system but this time around I have noticed a big change in the atmosphere at Swift Transportation and it has a much better feeling to it. Before I would constantly see people hanging out and cutting up but now when you are at the Terminal it has a much better professionalism to it and also I feel like when I call after hours dispatch or any other support team I feel there are people who are willing to help but I didn't feel that way before, I love working for Swift Transportation now and want to Mentor after having 8 years of driving experience and want to make sure the students get a good understanding of not just driving but using macros, using onroad when they have issues etc because back in 2014 when I went with a mentor and got off the truck I think this was frustrating the most for me because I didn't get much of hands on doing these myself so it took me forever trying to find the information in my books but now I know the students can always call their dispatcher and they will either know how to help or can point you in right direction. I'm out of Lancaster Terminal and Nakosha is my dispatcher and she is wonderful in helping me out and is also gracious when she needs to help me correct something I am doing wrong and I couldn't ask for a better person than her.
It's never about the money, but however, they should be given something making the dangerous job worth the while
How does the mentor pay work for IC’s ?
What speed does Swift govern the trucks at, owner operators and company drivers? Thank you
Owner ops I'm not sure, but company drivers are at 65MPH
How many miles do a training truck average a week 🤔
My mentor and I just put 4000 miles on his truck in one week
@@SannarClaus reefer or dry van
@@stevenroland686 Both. Reefer and Dry. My mentor and I would do about 3k to 3.5k a week and I was super solo. We didnt do team driving.
@@stevenroland686 he does strictly dry van. He hates reefer
9 month!!! Of minimum experience!!! You have got to be kidding me. As usual a mega carrier who has no idea or methodology of putting experienced drivers with students that need an experienced mentor. All driver mentors needs to have a minimum of two years of experience. But as usual mega carriers are "hiring mills* that just pushes drivers out the door i to an 80,000 pound machine. Please, save the *pep rally talk"
