This is why I recommend newbies FIRST find a company to work for THEN go get the license ESPECIALLY if you have something sketchy in your past. Keep applying, someone will a eventually hire you. By then your new license may need to be refreshed. DUI/drugs/accidents are not minor blips on a driving record but too many newbies think they can explain them away & get a good job. Your employer doesn't know if you are Joe Schmoe or an axe murderer, he only has your application & record. Keep your record clean or work for companies nobody wants.
Your CDL school, like mine, should have refused your money since getting a job is hard FOR NOW. Wait is all I know to do.ExOTR and elnacho_248 Thank this. -
Try TransAm as a first choice.
Carolina Logistics second choice.
Carolina Cargo third choice.
I think @pattyj is right, it's the refusal that's biting you. Many companies look at a refusal as being on the same level as taking a hostage. -

and a million more, ive been applying since 09/2016 when i got my CDL
i was able to work under the table for this owner op, but it was under the table
and now he went on military leave and canceled his DOT number so am back to square one no verifiable exp and no CDL job -
yeah smith and solomon, they said since its been five years theyll take me some were, i was confident. i dont drink do drugs. in my mind all i had to do was show my school certificate and pass a drug test and live on a truck and drive through the greatest country in the world till the end of times

In NJ I would go on Craigslist or go by the piers lots of owner operators looking for drivers trust me they will do a 50/50 but if you want to put that license to use worth a shot try SalSon logistics and here https://newjersey.craigslist.org/search/trp
elnacho_248 Thanks this. -
I just kinda feel sorry ya bud. The other posters have given you the same info I would have, but NJ, well, they suck in every way. And I agree it's the refusal. Because refusal to take a drug test is a 10-year mistake. And I will bet that's how they are viewing it.
