Does an Amazon driver count as "commercial driving experience"?

CDL = Commercial Drivers License. So no. An Amazon Van doesn't count. But an Amazon Semi truck does.

 

Some companies accept/recognize it and will put you through a refresher course to familiarize you with the company protocols and procedures. Some will assist you in upgrading from Class-B to Class-A.

 

It is commercial driving experience, but not CDL experience. As was said before.

 

Which town do you live in?

 

I was a commercial bus driver for 20 years, with a Class B CDL, and that didn’t mean a thing to any trucking company I talked to after I upgraded to a Class A. I was still a rookie.

The problem is some people use CDL and CMV interchangeably. This is in error. Several months ago I spoke to someone wanting drivers that did this on their website. I called them and they changed it. Then there is the type of CMV you are driving. If you see a large trucking company stating required experience you can take that to mean experience in the type of vehicles they operate.
