I have applied to every otr trucking company I thought I had any chance with, even the bottom of the barrel. Western Express said I wasn't in their hiring area. My Cdl is in WA state, address near Seattle.
I started trucking in 2012, trained through Prime. I ended driving in February 2021, and have 6.5-7 years experience. I've hauled reefer, dry van and tanker.
I can think of 4 reasons I'm not being hired:
1. The area my cdl is in.
2. I got into an accident before I left in February 2021. It wasn't serious. I wasn't even cited. The lady might have claimed she was injured as an insurance scam. Info I got from insurance investigator.
3. Spotty employment record. If I can get back into trucking, I'll stay employed. Learned my lesson on this one.
4. Maybe companies are pickier currently.
I already have another post on this forum, where guys were trying to help me, but no luck.
So, I thought I'd post here. Maybe someone who needs a driver is interested. I would just need to get a new med card.
Ok, I've plead my case.

Attention employers: We now require a valid DOT# for anyone wishing to post a driving position. If your job offer doesn't contain a DOT number, it will not get past moderation and will not appear in the forum. The other requirements in the sticky at the top of this section are still required as well. Thank you for understanding.
Looking for otr, been off road over 3 years
