    expediters are primarilly owner operaters leased to their respective companies.

    as i heard more of a specialty trade.

    You might find an O/O looking to team people on one of their trucks. They like to run teams mostly. Some of the Expediter forums / websites have listings of O/Os looking for drivers, so do some of the companies - like fedex custom critical.

    [FONT=&quot]I'd go to the Custom Critical, Ground and Express sites and look at the jobs page there. There's a link there to the O/Os and L/Os looking to hire teams, because Fedex isn't taking on drivers or O/Os right now. It's gonna be about 3 months befor ethey start looking at O/O applications. That would be your best bet. There are also Expedited forums that provide TLs of info on what's going on in that part of the industry.
