You can research trucking jobs and choose your area. Most sites will give you the info you need to research company's that will take inexperience drivers. There is several out there for you--you just gotta do some research!

Well first do a Google search for trucking jobs..
Look for websites like this:
[LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link.

Fill the App out and send it.. You then will start getting emails and people calling you.. right them all down then use the search option on this forum
[LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link.
Type in the companies names and read up on them..

Then if you still have questions about those companies post them....

Remember people tend to post more negative then good..
People are more likely to post bad experiences then good, usually a get it of thier chest type of thing... But all information is good to know so you know what you are looking at.

You are going to find bad reviews about every company who will hire you without experience. Just find one that has decent freight in your area so you can hopefully get home once in awhile and suck it up for a year. then after a year many more companies will hire you

The best thing to do is research this forum. You will find out real quick which companies are decent and which ones just flat out not worth your application. Be very careful in picking your next employer. Make sure it is a decent company. If you get on with a company with a bad reputation such as CR England, Swift, Werner, etc you may regret it and want to jump ship. Then the next thing you know you got a bad report on your DAC file. Best advice research this forum. Sure every company has negativity about it, but when a company is constantly showing up with 30 pages of complaints in "Report a Bad Truck Company Here" keep looking! Ask a lot of questions because everyone knows recruiters are the MOST HONEST people alive, right next to politicians! ASK YA DADDY!

You would be better off goin with werner there in GA--but you should also check out Schneider. From what i have seen with CRE--i would stay away from them. Swift would be better than them. I would only go with CRE if that was my last option. And the thoughts of riding 2 days on a bus to Salt Lake--dont appeal much to me! LOL

Congrats and good luck to you~ A friend of mine did trans am when he got out of school and did real well with them. He never had no major problems and they seem to be a pretty good place to start. Hope all works out for you!
