    Thanks for all the feedback from everyone. Have one last serious question, think any of these companies will hire me with a 15 over ticket from 2016?

    Try to get a pre hire letter from a company first. At least talk to a recruiter and find out if that ticket is something they can work with.

    Apply now and find out. Companies will look over your application and if you're hirable, they'll contact you with a job offer, contingent upon graduating from cdl school and having all required endorsements. Do the online applications before calling; this is important.

    Have you tried FedEx Freight? They have a freight handler position open but it’s only part time. You could eventually enter their apprentice program and become a driver. The pay isn’t too bad for part time employees. I believe the location is Moreland Road in Atlanta not sure if that’s close to you.
     
    authentic251 Thanks this.

    So Chinatown
    Do this before going to cdl school?
    I actually have an app in for ABF driver training school from back in July. They emailed me shortly after asking for my social. Status still reads being reviewed.

    Yes, you can apply now. You will probably be notified and ask when is your graduation date from cdl school.
