CDL-A with at least 3 months of qualifying driving experience and ability to meet mentor eligibility requirements
STOP BEING UNDERPAID WHEN YOU ARE AN ELITE DRIVER
If you're an experienced Class A driver who knows how to run safely, communicate professionally, and help another driver succeed, this Mentor position gives you the opportunity to turn that experience into serious earning potential.
As a Driver Mentor, you can earn on all eligible truck miles — including miles driven by your student.
While your student is gaining experience behind the wheel, the truck keeps moving and your earning opportunity keeps growing.
And unlike mentor programs that may keep trainers out for 3–4 weeks, mentor runs average approximately 11 days OTR.
$2,200–$2,600 WEEKLY INCOME POTENTIAL
Your compensation opportunity includes:
- $2,200–$2,600 weekly income potential
- Experience-based tiered CPM pay
- Additional $0.10 CPM while training
- Additional $0.04 CPM productivity bonus when applicable
- Pay on eligible miles driven by both you and your student
- $500 bonus after your student reaches 10,000 safe miles
- $300 bonus after your student reaches 20,000 safe miles
ELITE MENTOR REWARDS
After successfully training 6 qualifying students, mentors can become eligible to earn:
$0.01 CPM on qualifying miles those drivers run during their first solo year.
Help develop successful drivers while creating an additional long-term earning opportunity.
TRAIN STUDENTS — OR TAKE A BREAK AND RUN SOLO
Mentor runs average approximately 11 days OTR.
Students are required to drive a minimum of 5 hours per day, allowing the truck to remain productive while you provide hands-on instruction and coaching.
One of the biggest advantages of this program is flexibility. You don't have to train students nonstop.
Between students, qualified mentors may have the option to:
- Take a break from training and run solo
- Move into an available dedicated account in their area
- Take scheduled time off before accepting another student
- Return to mentoring when ready
- Continue running available freight between students
Dedicated opportunities are based on account availability and hiring area.
Mentor trucks may also receive priority loads and dispatch support.
WANT TO TAKE THE NEXT STEP? PETERBILT LEASE OPTION AVAILABLE
For qualified drivers interested in moving beyond the company-driver path, an optional Peterbilt lease opportunity may also be available.
Eligible drivers may have the opportunity to:
- Lease a Peterbilt
- No money down
- No credit check
- Transition from company driver/mentor into a lease opportunity still allows you to mentor and get paid while training
- Build toward greater independence without a traditional truck purchase
Leasing is completely optional and subject to program eligibility, equipment availability, lease terms, operating costs, and applicable requirements. Ask recruiting for complete lease details before making a decision.
