    So I posted an ad on Craigslist yesterday as I was in the bus ride home.
    Pretty much said "Marine just got CDL no exp needs job"
    Today I got a call. Dude from an excavating company needs a dump truck driver to drive a dump truck and trailer.
    I got me an interview and road test tomorrow! Yikes another test lol
    if it's just driving I should be good :)
    pretty awesome it's a local job and they are willing to train. I really just want to get the experience and who knows maybe go OTR later.
    If it doesn't work out I'm still going back to May Trucking again!
    Uhruh! Kill bodies

    It's awesome when one can easily post something and immediately get doors opened up for them. Even the opportunity of an interview is niceeee!

    Truckindude: wondering if you posted your ad under the "Transport" section of the Jobs section on craigslist? Or did you post in the resume section?? I'm guessing in the transport section, but those are jobs offered, never see any drivers posting ads like you mentioned in that section. Just want to understand in case any of want to try the same approach in the future. Thanks!

    I posted in the "Resume" section. I'm very surprised. I didn't expect employers to be looking for people that way especially with the economy as it is and the unemployment rate. But I'm sure the unemployed don't have a CDL ;)
