Get most jobs after a year experience?

Here is my list that creates the best job opportunities:

• 12+ months of continuous experience with one carrier
• Job Stability - No Job Hopping
• A Clean MVR - In Both a Commercial Vehicle and Personal vehicle
• A Clean DAC - No Accidents No Incidents
• Multiple Endorsements on your CDL - Haz Mat/ Tanker/Doubles/ TWIC Card
• Clean Criminal Record

 

Not to burst the balloon, your still in the rookie ranks.
The thing is to keep up the good work.
Milestones at 3 and 5 years. Statistics say that is the window of incidents. As time and experience build, the likelihood of an incident goes down.

 

My company hired someone recently who the first time he was on his own he completely tore the clutch out of a t800. That's not how you want to start for yourself. Apparently he tried to start out in 5hi and since the truck would just chug and stall he slipped the clutch until it got moving lol. That's not a good way to start out. Apparently he has very little experience and apparently no common sense. If you let off the clutch and it's struggling excessive STOP what you are doing and re-examine the situation. That could have easily been prevented.

 

True. LOL

 

I didn’t want to put in a year with a mega so I didn’t. Just started applying for local jobs, all they can say is no, ok on to the next... I like sleeping in my bed.

 

Impossible? No. Difficult? Absolutely!

 

Yea. Not so much newb.
