    Hi everyone , I have a valid Class A CDL but, it does me no good because I graduated from truck driving school in 2009. ZERO experience! I had a choice of several companies right out of school. I did not take take a job because my mom passed away and my dad got sick also. So I took a job driving buses and vans locally. This is the job I have had for the last 11 years. I am still interested in driving OTR. What companies may consider me ? I know I would have to go through complete training again. Interested in company sponsored, not sure how this would work. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

    Call Centerline drivers work for the temp for a while, they wont test drive you, you may have to say you were a driver for where ever you have been working. Do that for a year or two. They are currently looking for drivers to run CA/TX loop out 5 to 7 home 2 pays about 1500.00 per week.
