    I'm not recommending this outfit; I'm just informing you of what I read somewhere.
    I read this guy places cdl grads with some FedEx contractor.
    Check it out and make your own decision.

    From what I read you didn't finish your OTR training with CRE. Your license means nothing to these Megas. They will drop you back in their school so you can learn their way. A smaller company might not. Companies like May don't have a school. You have your license you go out with a trainer. I'm sure you will find something but as mentioned, starting by the end of the week might not be practical. No matter where you go you will have some kind of indoc.

    Ok if you completed OTR then you will have a better chance of just getting more OTR. Sorry I misunderstood. MAY is semi local to you, they run a lot of I-5.

    When I lived in SoCal I was with them for 3-4 weeks while waiting on my truck. Only time I've been a company driver, money stunk but better then CRE and I got home often.

    Give Interstate Distributing and Gordon a call, pay better than average and work I-5 heavily. Interstate puts a refrigerator in their truck, Gordon has APUs. I know Interstate is training. I watched as one poor slob tried to stick it in a wide hole for 30min.

    Always ask the recruiter this.

    I know Roehl will make new Cdl holders that come to work for them sign a contract for 75,000 miles. Leave before or if roehl lets you go, even if for no reason, you owe them money. I think it is about 3 grand.
