Not sure what that means? One entry found for annul. 1 : to reduce to nothing : OBLITERATE 2 : to make ineffective or inoperative : NEUTRALIZE 3 : to declare or make legally invalid or void <wants the marriage annulled> synonym see NULLIFY

Tons of paperwork, drug test, physical, driving test, eye exam, videos. Be prepared to go out immedietly if they find you a trainer, if not you may be sent home till they find you one, or greyhound you to another city to meet up with your trainer.

Most companies will keep you in orientation from 2 to 7 days. After that you will be off with a trainer if your a rookie or off solo if you have experience.
Just ask the recruiter from the companies that you are interested in how long theirs is. Also don't forget to ask is it a "paid" or "unpaid" orientation.
