Living overseas past couple of years, now trying to get hired into company sponsored Cdl training

Someone is giving you incorrect information.
You're hirable. Many drivers on this forum have lived overseas for a few years, including me, and had no problem being hired.
Where is your domicile; address on your CDL-B?
Don't need your street address, just which state and nearest city are you in.
Trucking companies go by the address on your drivers license to determine if you're in their hiring area.

 

Trillium hires CDL-B drivers and also hire non-cdl drivers.

And I would like it to be known that I have had job offers from not 1, not 2 but THREE different driving companies in which I was NOT in their hiring area, one of them I wasn't even close and they still offered me a job just with reduced home time. I told them thanks but no thanks. Hometime is the reason I'm out here.

My point is not to pat myself on the back, it's to let the OP know that just because you don't show in a companies hiring area don't think that automatically bars you from employment there.
