Schneider National Inc., one of North America's largest truckload carriers, said it is adding 200 new regional truck driver positions in Virginia.
The company's expanded presence in the area will support Wal-Mart's new distribution center in Gordonsville.

Schneider National plans to hire the additional 200 regional drivers and owner-operators over the course of the next 60 days. All new hires will reside within a 100-mile radius of Gordonsville.
The company said no experience is necessary. Schneider National offers a comprehensive company-paid training program.
Inexperienced drivers are encouraged to apply for the new positions. They will receive a $1,000 signing bonus and will earn an average salary of $31,000-$36,000 in their first year.
Experienced drivers will receive a $2,000 signing bonus and will earn an average of $36,000-$50,000 per year. A relocation bonus of $2,500 will be offered to experienced drivers who relocate within the hiring area. Owner operators leasing with Schneider National will earn as much as $115,000 per year.
Drivers will haul freight from the new distribution center to Wal-Mart stores within a 250-mile radius of Gordonsville. The work will be based on a schedule of six days on/two days off and will enable drivers to return home on a weekly basis, with the possibility of getting home several times each week. Schneider National will manage drivers locally and will maintain an on-site office in Gordonsville.
Schneider National representatives are conducting job interviews and a career seminar this week.
Interested individuals are encouraged to call (800) 447-7433 or visit www.schneider.com for more information
Schneider National has more than 15,000 drivers and owner operators serving the United States, Canada and Mexico.
