    My nephew found a job that requires the drivers to be native born citizens and have spotless driving credit and criminal records .

    To the op,

    I would take something practically anything that puts food on the table until you can find your dream job. I’m just saying that if it were me and I were in your shoes, any driving job that put food on the table, I would take.

    Have you kept track of how many trucking companies you've applied to? Might be interesting reading.

    I have a full time job, hence I’m not in a huge rush to find something, if I were unemployed I would take whatever I could get
