Chances of landing a job

I doubt the chances are very good with most companies. It's the insurance companies call probably.

 

they will have a problem with your license getting suspended. how long ago was it?

 

A recent 1 year license suspension is going to be hard to work around in the transportation/trucking industry.

 

Things will be alot easier,

3 years from now.


In the mean time, get that misdemeanor removed from your record.

 

Maybe you could sell pot while you wait to get your license back!

 

Many starter companies will require 10 years since a drug possession. There are some that will allow it sooner than that but I'd be guessing at least 5 years. I had a misdemeanor marijuana possession that was eight years old and found many companies wouldn't look at me at all when trying to find my first job.

 

Good luck. I wouldnt go to a truck driving school until after you make a whole lot of phone calls to companies. Drugs wont look good even if a one time thing. Theres also aton of other prospects with clean backgrounds making you look even less desirable.
