    Do they pay this right out of school? Do they hire from community College or roadmasters?

    Some tanker companies hire from certain schools.
    You can call and ask which school they recommend.
    Community college or tech schools are probably on their list.
    Check with Groendyke; they bought McKenzie Tank Lines in Tallahassee and McKenzie hired new cdl grads from certain schools.
    Give Groendyke a call.
    Groendyke Transport, Inc. - Welcome | Groendyke Transport
    www.groendyke.com
    Groendyke Transport is excited to announce we have signed a purchase agreement to acquire all the tank truck assets of McKenzie Tank Lines, Inc. We anticipate the transaction to be completed by Jan. 1, 2019. McKenzie Tank Lines is a bulk hazmat carrier with about 200 drivers based in Tallahassee, Fla.
