Not sure if this exists.

Craig's List

but be very careful of the responses you get from the emails. many will be from the major carriers or as we call them, "the mega-carriers" that pay crappola....

DO NOT EXPECT to get paid MORE MONEY from any of these companies then they would have offered you via the school..

as for the "lifetime" placement assistance, do not believe it one bit. as you gain your experience, jobs with better companies thru the school will be too few and far between. they usually always have the "mega-carriers" for one to go to, and once you get your experience, you WILL NOT WANT to work for any of those companies.

 

Posting yourself in classifieds, probably not. Companies will post openings there but they will most likely be experienced required. With no experience, your best bet will be with a starter company

 

go ahead and check the Craig's List ads in YOUR area. there YOU WILL SEE a few people posting ads for employment...

so it can be done.

 

The best thing you can do for "Guaranteed lifetime placement"?? is keep your nose clean, don't screw up, don't get tickets, and get the job done, month in and month out. In a year you can begin to seek better opportunities, in 2 years you can virtually work anywhere you want to work where wages, bennies, and home-time and/or maximum miles comes together to give you what you're looking for. But if you don't/can't prove your worth and your abilities inside the first year as a trucker, you may as well save your marriage, watch your kids grow up, and mow lawns and shovel snow because anything else is a waste of everyone's time and expense.

 

Sure it can be done. But how many reputable companies you think scour craigslist

 

there are a couple of sights that one can advertise looking for a job.

i can't think of there names right off hand but craigslist isn't one of them.

i get an email about once every 6 months. from some company wanting to hire.

google is your friend.

 

My school gave me a list with over 300 smaller companies in a 90 mile radius they had personal experience with, many that required experience. Will tell you if it's OTR, local or regional. Even designates different "states" of hiring, like not always taking apps or a place you have to wait for someone to quit to even try getting a job. Don't get me wrong, coming out of school they're trying to place students at a few certain carriers which is why I didn't use their job placement department and got a job on my own, but they do offer you lots of information for other jobs. Not every school is only worried about your first bottom feeder job.
