    I am a few weeks away from graduating from a CDL school & have been browsing around for future job opportunities for recent graduates in North Carolina. My problem is there’s a lot of companies with a lot of promises & I have no one close in the industry to ask for advice. I’ve been doing some research but I would still like to turn to y’all for advice.

    So I was hoping if someone here could point me in the directions of some good opportunities here in North Carolina, preferably around Raleigh but I don’t mind traveling as I am 23 with no kids.
    I have no criminal record, only have 1 speeding ticket(reduced to misuse of equipment) about 2-3 years ago, never done any drugs so drug tests will be no problem. Ideally I’d like no touch freight, solo, & home on the weekends but again I don’t mind being out for longer.

    Any help would be much appreciated, thank you all. Be safe out there.

    YRC has their own cdl school, so probably will hire from the one you're attending.
