    Knight Transportation -- hires & trains new CDL holders -- Nashville, TN

    The above ad does not mention any req'd experience level.

    A MAJOR ADVANTAGE there: LOTS of terminals/drop yards available nationwide for overnite parking, between them & their sister fleet, Swift Transportation: legal, safe, free parking at terminals -- free showers/restrooms, laundry facilities, on-site repair shops, company mentoring, company-run cafeterias -- & other amenities that those other, smaller carriers can't/won't match.

    Freight option possibilities: dry van, reefer, intermodal, & flatbed.

    Most terminals at Swift only have vending machines.
    Laundry machines are free.
    I don't shower at terminals for several reasons.
