    Where are some places to look for trucking jobs? I see the same old stuff on Craigslist and my local technical college has an online board that companies can post openings. Where else would be a good resource to look for trucking jobs?

    Had mixed luck on Craigslist. 2/3 turned out to be not so good, but the one I'm at now is good. If you see the same names over and over (talking about you US Express, Landair, Knight, etc...) then ya, I'd give them a pass. But most, especially local, seem to look for one or two drivers for a few weeks then you never see them again.
     
    surfdog and bzinger Thank this.

    I found my current gig from an ad posted on monster.com. I never knew the company had their own private fleet, and they rarely advertise. Best job I have ever had. 4 day work week, home every night, making more than I ever did OTR. Excellent benefits, etc. I went back and forth deciding on whether to apply, but glad I did. Best of luck in your search.
