    @BayTrucker --

    You probably haven't really done anything wrong.

    Your biggest issue is probably just your timing--the overall trucking market has slowed way down in the last 9-12 months. Also: "starter" carriers have bumped up their minimum hiring requirements in may places, as a result.

    Thus--you will very likely have to work harder/longer to get that first CDL job opportunity.

    If all of the above job suggestions somehow fail--you might then give Schneider a try.

    The following are Schneider recruiting events in your area, for the near future:

    Also, try to submit the applications on the various trucking company websites before calling. Follow up with a phone call within 24 - 48 hours; "I'm checking on my job application."
