Hello everyone, sorry if I posted this in the wrong section, this is only my second post.
I obtained my CDL on 2/2/18 after 5 tries, yes, 5 tries, I know. First time I failed offset right skill, 2nd time air brakes, 3rd time road test, and 4th time air brakes again..when I passed, the DMV examiner said I was going a little too slow on turns, but everything else was good. I never driven a manual before attending my CDL school lol.
I don’t have a preference as to OTR, local, etc since I don’t have any kids or a spouse. But I would like to know which companies hire recent CDL grads with no experience and will train you in southern CA.
Thank you

@Chinatown wondering if you can give me a little assistance or anyone else thst may read this. I'm looking for a company that pays for cdl school. I have found a lot but they are mostly for reefer. I'm interested in pulling dry van and staying in the South central, Southeast, and maybe Midwest regions. Anyone have any suggestions on some companies out there I can contact also I'm from Arkansas thanks in advance.
