    So here’s my question I am currently in school for my cdl.on my background check I have pre trial diversion for felony possession. Diversion will be completed in 10 months and charges dismissed. Is it a lost cause on finding a job after graduating. Are there any company’s that will hire me.

    Dismissal mean no conviction, right? The questions were something like “have you ever been convicted of a crime.” I’m not a lawyer but pretend I know something about everything.

    No absolutes. If you look hard enough you should find something. However if you are being supervised on probation forget OTR for a while.

    Sounds s like wait until it’s dismissed and then you have a clean record. Right?

    Talk to several companies before finishing school. If you cannot find one to hire you, then I would suggest you try something a bit sneaky.

    Ask your school if you can defer graduation until you have completed your intervention.

    That way you will have a fresh graduation under your belt when you apply to different companies.

    You will probably want to arrange for some yard time with your school shortly before your deferred graduation, if they allow it, so you won't be too rusty when you get in a truck with a trainer.

    Yeah I don’t think that will work because the state of Indiana is paying my tuition through a displaced worker program I would like to be able to find anything just till it’s dismissed and then have more options

    Try PI&I Motor Express in Masury, Ohio; this company hires felons and ex-cons right out of prison. It's also Teamsters, so you can be vested for a lifetime pension after working there 5 years.
