    Hi everyone,

    I just completed school. I have served 20 yrs in the military and I am looking to get a local fuel job. I have Hazmat and tanker endorsements. I also drove fuel trucks in the military. My question is can anyone help me with companies that hire out of school in Tampa,FL? Also, I am unsure of what to put for my experience when asked about commercial driving experience.Thanks for any help.

    Which branch of service were you in?
    There may be some more tanker jobs in Tampa or nearby. If Eagle Transport doesn't accept you, let us know and maybe you can work for other tanker companies until Eagle will accept you.

    Eagle wants 200 hours, but might cut some slack with your military experience.
    Submit the application from the website before calling. Maybe luck out.

    Some are well over 200 hours. Those are usually in the Community College cdl programs.
    Put the apps in and include your Army time.
