Your friend that quit his first company after only 3 months possibly was viewed as an unstable job-hopper by the company. So yes, take your time doing your research and just know that you might have to grin and bear it for a while before better opportunities come your way.

Some have something like, "Must have 1 yr. experience or recent cdl school grad."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here's an example from Freymiller. They hire new cdl grads. fresh out of school, but if the driver goes to a company right out of school, then quits before 6 mos. Freymiller won't hire them. In other words, "New cdl school grad or 6 mos. experience."
Qualifications
- At least 23 years of age
- Class “A” CDL
- 6 months verifiable OTR tractor/trailer experience in last 2 years.

HDS is a good school, I think - some companies indicated you only needed 6 mos experience if you went to HDS, AIT, or Swift school. Nice to know they weren't too expensive either. I am going to talk with Southwest Truck Driving school here in Phoenix, see what they have to offer.
Look forward to hearing about your trucking adventure! -
