We’re committed to those who know the value of service and the power of integrity.

We want you in our ranks.
Schneider National is one of the nation’s largest and most decorated employers of military personnel. We recognize that it takes a special individual to commit his or her life to the service of others. At Schneider, you’ll find that the same principles highly regarded in the military – safety, integrity, excellence and respect – are equally valued here, making us the right choice for veterans, Guard members and Reservists. Our Apprenticeship Program includes on-the-job training and is a smart way to make the most of your GI Bill benefits. Whether you are an experienced driver, owner-operator or looking to start your trucking career, Schneider has an opportunity or program to meet your needs.

Use Your G.I. Bill for Training
No experience is needed to get your civilian career in gear with Schneider. If you are a veteran, Guard member or Reservist who is just starting to plan your civilian truck driving career, we will work with you to use your GI Bill benefits to select a truck driving school. We'll stay in contact with you every step of the way, providing you the information and support to get through the process quickly. Once your training is complete, we'll match you with the driving career at Schneider that's right for you.
