Hello everyone this is my first post here. I've been lurking this particular thread for the last week while at work out of boredom.
I currently work a ###### dead end customer service job, been wanting to be a trucker since way back when I was in highschool. I actually took some initiative and got my class 1 (CDL) learners, took the introductory and airbrake course but did not have the money to continue.
I'm deciding to finally make a career change to something I've been wanting to do forever and I may have the opportunity to have my course paid for by the government (It's expensive! $10,000 No way someone living above the poverty line can afford that on their own). Unfortunately, despite how bad my job is, how low it pays they told me because I work over 20 hours a week that I will have to go down a different route with a lot more loop holes to jump through. They told me one of the things that will help me is if prior to getting accepted, what will actually help is if I have a company that will send me an e-mail or a letter saying that there is room in their company and should I obtain my class 1 (CDL) I will have a position in their company.
I've been reading the posts here and see that a lot of people are actually hiring in this thread and that a lot of jobs up north don't even require experience, just that you took the appropriate training. I am trying to make a huge leap and get my life on track and get started in something I've always wanted to do.
I know this is a long shot and I am aware that a lot of these companies hire the old fashioned way where you have to show up with a resume and the clothes on your back in their office to get a job, however, this is a little bit of a different situation. I'm all for doing it the old fashioned way and will be more than willing to do just that once I obtain my CDL, Class 1. If someone knows a company that is hiring truckers with no experience and would be willing to write an e-mail/fax/letter whichever is best for them stating that I will be considered for a position should I receive my class 1 license, even if the company changes their mind and runs into financial problems where they can't hire me afterwards, as long as I can get my license and my foot in the door that would be the best thing I could ask for.
This letter/email will be extremely helpful.
I respect all you guys who do this for a living and would love to make this my career. I just need the help to get started.|
If anyone could point me into the right direction (aside from out the door) I would be very greatful.
I live in Chilliwack BC
Thank you.Last edited: Jan 17, 2013
