Ok, I originally got my CDL, then I worked for a company for about 6 months OTR. I then chose to work a local courier job that was good at the time but didn't involve my CDL, i have looked at returning to driving, but the problem is, is that I keep being told I have no experience since I've been out of it for over a year. I Keep being told to take a refresher course (which is very costly) is there not ANY company that will hire??
Yes, there are companies that will hire you, try these: Big-M Transportation Pride Transport Halvor Lines Paschall Truck Lines Western Express Submit online applications, then follow with a phone call in 3 or 4 days which gives them a chance to look over the application.
Give Maverick a call also. You may be pleasantly surprised from what I've read concerning just this situation.
I would contact the Georgia DMV if you did not self certify. http://www.dds.ga.gov/commercial/commdata.aspx?con=1744171759&ty=com If you did not self certify, they may have downgraded your license to a Non-CDL.
