New Hire Classes

I saw a post on a facebook group that Republic may be freezing class dates? Any truth to this? I hold a CJO and am looking to get a class date for August

Have you contacted the recruiter who gave you the CJO?

I'll ask the van driver on my next overnight to confirm.... Do you have any idea who the source of this information is?

In all seriousness, at this time there is nothing to indicate such but heck, anything is possible. Hire 'til you fire in this industry.

Anyone have any insight on how far out you should receive details about ATP/CTP? I was given a 7/2/2024 start date with ATP/CTP beginning on 6/24/2024. Signed the contract, completed the background check, drug screen, etc. Haven't heard any details. Reached out to my recruiter and haven't gotten a response. Should I be concerned?

Now is it unusual? No, RPA has historically not given travel information until just mere days before whatever event they need you to travel to. But RPA could cancel the class the day before and they wouldn’t owe you anything. That is just the nature of the industry.
