    most schools you attend will have driver applications for trucking companies there. many schools insist you apply to a certain number of companies per week that you are attending school.

    most schools will tell you upfront that they have driver placement. Now if you attend a local college, that is a whole different animal. You will have to go online and fill out applications to companies that hire student drivers.

    How long is your school?Don't take the worst company because your goal is to make money and get the exp correct?You take a bad company and knowing how bad they are,you'll be lucky if you last a a month.Just take your time untill you find the right company that'll suit you.
