    Basically, this is what I'm looking for:

    Pet policy, no weight limit.
    Decent company to work for.
    Decent pay.
    Ideally, deals in proper hazmat (things that pay more than +$.01/pm).
    Decent benefits package.
    Otr, not local.

    I live just outside Chicago, IL, but willing to relocate to wherever.

    Have any recommendations? If you know a company that will only take someone after a few months experience, that's okay. I'm willing to work a crummy-ish job for a little while and move somewhere better after a few months.

    Thanks :)

    Better place that one near the bottom at first and move it up as the miles go by :msad:

    Being near Chicago you will have many choices.

    Have you considered an independent recruiter? They work for themselves and are paid the company that hires you. I know of one if you would like the info.

    zoo man,
    can you tell me more about independent recruiters? if they can get a job with a decent company that has a pet policy with no weight restrictions, then i'll be happy.
    i'll be graduating from the highest rated school in IL from the 240 program, with all endorsements.



    thanks everyone for the suggestions :)
    i'll be definitely checking into epes.
