What Are the Requirements to Become a Vigo Courier?
The primary requirement for Vigo couriers is to hold an A1 or A2 driving license for motorcycle couriers. There is no foreign language or specific education requirement for motorcycle delivery. The most important checks during recruitment are the criminal record and the driver penalty points. Candidates without issues in these areas are prioritized. Applicants who want to work with their own motorcycle are also given priority. Personal motorcycles must be at least 2014 model and 110 cc or higher; otherwise the vehicle will not be accepted.
Although the company is known for motorcycle courier services, it also hires vehicle couriers. Vehicle couriers must hold an appropriate driving license plus SRC3 and SRC4 certifications and a psychotechnical certificate. Personal vehicles must be 2012 model or newer regardless of make. As with motorcycle roles, criminal record and driver penalty points are checked and no specific education or language skills are required.
What Are Vigo Courier Working Conditions?
Working conditions vary depending on the chosen role. Those using their own vehicles generally have more flexible schedules. Vigo also offers motorcycle rental instead of requiring couriers to buy a motorcycle. In that option, a motorcycle is rented daily and used for deliveries; the rental fee is not required upfront but is deducted from the courier’s salary at month’s end.
How Much Are Vigo Courier Salaries in 2024?
In 2024, Vigo courier salaries range between 75,000 and 87,000 TL. This variation reflects the flexible choice couriers have over working hours. Salaries differ according to working hours, number of working days, total hours, and the type of vehicle used.
