Looking for small operations that take recent grads

Like title says, just got my class a on 9/9 with hazmat, tankers, dbls & triples, plus twic and passport is in process.

I live in southern Louisiana, Breaux Bridge. Me and my father in law went to school together, wanting to team and really looking for a smaller outfit that has APUs, inverters, miles, decent mileage pay or % you know all the glorious stuff that I should get after driving for 60yrs but am demanding with fresh water dripping off my newb ears.

Applied at Trimac, all local linehaul etc. the economy here is really down thanks to the oil field tanking. Just trying to see if there are any other options that I am missing

 

Well great news, we both got called into Trimac for a team op, will have interview tomorrow.

The really good thing is we already met the terminal manager 3 weeks ago, we stopped by at that time to just shake his hand and too see what he had to say about possible team ops for us when we graduate. That meet and greet went really well and he told us at that time he does not hire new CDL grads, just burned to many times before but liked what we had to say, along with our long tenure at our prior company, father in law had 13yrs and I had 5.5yrs. This lead to him promising to give us a shot once we graduated

Fingers are crossed, sacrificing a goat, buying holy water that it all goes great tomorrow

 

Well had interview yesterday, that went great, Went back today for Backing test, advanced yard maneuvering and road test.

This was by far harder than anything I done at school but we both got through it and tomorrow we have physicals and drug screens, fingers crossed by Friday I am saying we are full blown Trimac employees
