    Hi, I'm new to the forum. I'm starting my CDL training next week for 5 weeks for Class A and all the endorsements. My question is which companies are best to apply for entry level driver. I want to be doing OTR. Hometime is not necessarily. I'm in CT.
    Thanks.

    NFI hires in CT and tanker/hazmat endorsements required.
    Navajo Express runs coast-to-coast.

    Check with the school and find out which companies recruit from the school also. Let us now; some companies may be good and some not.

    Check these also:

    H.O. Wolding
    WEL
    Melton Truck Lines
    Schneider Bulk
    United Van Lines

    Good, also always ignore "experience required" on any trucking company website and submit an application anyway. Many new CDL grads get excellent jobs by doing this.

    Prime Inc isn't a bad company to start out with just don't lease.
