    Anyone have any experience with this school? It says that there is no charge at all and no contracts. Everything paid. Only I can't find the trucking companies that prehire you on their website.

    Ok I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this company (Trucking Careers of America), the site sounds a little shady to be honest but I'd love to hear if anyone has anything to say on it.

    I checked out the link for O/O's

    The numbers are too low for me. Not shady, no better or no worse than I have seen on the web. But then again the proof is in the contract.

    Ok, so someone from this company contacted me. They have two sites named above. Is this legit? Who hires from them? Any information is appreciated. Thanks,

    Look at it this way. Why would a company have to go out and look for drivers in the first place?

    Recruits for SWIFT first/primarily. Then, CR England, USA and the other companies with contract/sponsorship programs.

    Also, he promotes leasing very heavily.
