    So I'm in CDL school, I'll finish in about two weeks an take my test. I'm wondering which companies to apply to. I'm looking for felony friendly but I know I may have to just take a not so decent company starting out to get my foot in the door . My instructors are giving me some companies they suggested a couple I think Werner was one of them, homerun transportation and maverick. What do you guys think ? I value your opinions on here because you have experience. I'm in Columbus ohio

    I'd go for the reefer & flatbed companies.

    Apply to any you like, even if you don't think you'll be hired; might get surprised.

    Don't know if this one has the OTR you want. Website shows they service the greater Cincinnati region.
    If you want to see the country, better ask some questions on this one.

    Either Maverick or Werner are fine choices.

    The real question now is: will either of them hire you? :dontknow:
