They're OK to get started, but lots more choices out there.
How old are you and where is your location? Some companies hire at 21 yrs. old and some don't.
Are you going to get all the endorsements?Mhart1472 Thanks this. -
Hi Chinatown! I'm 52 and live in New Braunfels, TX, which is between Austin and San Antonio. I definately plan on getting all of the endorsements!
Chinatown Thanks this. -
Texas is great for trucking jobs; don't have to settle for just anything in that state.If you have the money, get a passport and TWIC card. Google for nearest TWIC office. This is needed for entry to chemical plants, military bases, sea ports. These look real good on job applications.
Here's some companies that hire new CDL grads. Some websites may have "experience required" but they bend their own hiring rules for exceptional applicants, so submit the applications if you like what you see on the websites. Most tanker outfits you can make $60K+:
