    Hows it going I'm new on the forums actually just opened this account today and plan on being here for quite some time I work for a newer trucking company and I was hired to do hiring and look for more trucks to join the company. Well, I don't know where to start when it comes to finding Owner Operators looking for work any suggestions? I already had Monster and some other places in mind but it seemed a bit of a cliche place to start.

    Thanks for the advice, appreciate it. :)

    You could run ads in your local paper. Are you looking for just owner operators? or company drivers too?

    I for one would try posting an ad here and an ad in the paper as the member above me suggested. However be very specific on your requirements. How many years do you require, age, number of violations or none at all, etc...

    While I have no experience in the business side of an O/O, I would think most are not on Monster, Career builder, etc as they already have employment- their truck.

    KH and the others offer some good advice.
