    Hi I am from Cali thinking to change trades and was thinking to getting into trucking but want to see about going to ND oilfields to get my experience along with a living wage... Can anyone give me some outlook? What wages would I be looking at to start with no experience and the best place to start my experience?

    Thx for the quick response. When did you begin/year? And what is the outlook today? Is the competition or overflow of man power limiting inexperienced drivers? My outlook will be to get my CDL license and drive up there in need of a job.. Thx again for your time Trenton ;)

    Having a CDL with no recent experience is as bad as no CDL seems like!

    Is driving school an option for you? I think MBI will hire out of school. Good luck

    Began 2 years ago. Outlook is + at these Bbl prices. Lots of turnover inexperience is not a hurdle.
