Recent CDL graduate

I would I have to have 6 months with them for marine and glass division. I'll just have to bite the bullet and get with Swift or something like that. Been trying to ignore the elephant in the room but it hasn't really gotten me anywhere lol. I was told that OTR isn't necessary for something local or to get some experience but it sure is looking like it right now. Was considering a class B job even though it doesn't translate to class A experience but I need more than what im making now.

 

honestly yeah you're right. I usually get discouraged when I see the "3-6 month experience" part on applications and websites cause I figured that if the jobs that takes new grads arent hiring me, my chances of getting with companies that require experience could be even low.

 

I didnt get with werner. I had a yard trainer from my school telling me that they bait new drivers out of school but also bends them over and isnt a great starter company so i steered away. I can check with them again. I dont see a lot of their trucks around so that a good thing? assuming they're always moving.

 

I'll listen and I will take action.Thank you! I also got rejected by Mclane. Not sure why but I wish I could be given a clear reason why but the world doesnt owe me understanding

 

Yeah maybe bite the bullets wasn't a great choice of words lol I just get so much backlash whenever I bring up swift, leading me to believe that they're this terrible mega carrier. I do agree with you though. With no experience, it is very slim choices and no real room to be picky. Wish I could've took that advice 3 months ago and I'd already have some experience honestly.
