Schneider looks for drivers

Schneider looks for drivers    Schneider National, the largest U.S. truckload carrier, said it plans to hire 100 new drivers within the next 30 days as it expands its presence in Northern California. Positions are available for local, regional and long-haul operations.
   The motor carrier has increased its driver wage in the past year to attract more drivers. Inexperienced drivers will earn an average of $33,500-$41,500 in their first year. Experienced drivers will earn an average of $47,500-$56,500 per year.
   Long-distance drivers, however, will average about $60,000 per year under Schneider’s new pay structure compared to $45,000 in the past, company officials have said.
