    If you are a newbie, or a veteran, NFI is hiring. Regional, OTR and local ... i was just with NFI for the last almost 2 yrs, i jumped over from Knight ... i went local with NFI, they will hire newbies , you will just have to go with a trainer for 6 weeks if you have no experience... but i was local with NFI and i was home everyday and off every wednesday and thursday..... average pay if you get on a trader joes account is 1050 gross .. and that is for local and home everyday ..... i am off work since oct 30th for a work related injury that nfi said was not work related but it was and i am fighting them on it.. they seem to have left me hung out to dry about it but they are still a great company... you have to deal with the politics of it all though as you do with every company, but its not bad in the very end of it if you like hometime and good pay and can deal with messed up politics about certian things .... and yes, where i was , it was electronic logs .. no cheating ...

    Do they require recent school or to just have CDL? I have one company in the works but have not been totally accepted yet.

    Thank you for the info.

    Straight from their website "NFI has opportunities for recent driving school grads, experienced CDL A drivers, and Owner Operators."

    Thanks for the info Bubba. I just looked them up on google and noticed they have an office in Savannah, GA near I-95. Have you heard anything, good or bad about that location?

    NFi is not a bad company, i been with them for almost 2 yrs ... i do local and gross approx 1050 a week ... home everyday ... they also have regional and they have runs that cover florida and georgia but i think some of them they want team drivers for .. but all in all with my own personal experience, NFI has treated me well and i am only away from NFI for now until my eye surgery and i am heading right back to NFI .... but give them a yell on the phone and see what they have to say ... they do take recent grads, the grads will be with a trainer for about 8 weeks , but its all easy... and in certain areas they do have local jobs.... alot of people here in pa seen their add for local drivers and pay was over 1,000 and home everyday and alot of people think that the add was a load of BS, ( myself included ) but it is true .. 1050 a week average, for about 45 hrs a week of work ... cant go wrong there .. but i was on a high paying account .. not all accounts pay that well .... but call them and check them out ....

    they run internationals and freightliners ....
