    It's been two weeks. Give it some time. Keep up your due diligence and apply to bottom feeder companies for experience. A carrier is going to hire you, now it's just a matter of finding out which one. It may not be the carrier you want, but it will gain you the year or two of experience that the majority of the better companies want.
     
    Boy Howdey and 23YearoldTrucker Thank this.
