Like I said, it’s 6 months with an approved school, otherwise 1 year. You can find those jobs on Indeed.
I’m surprised someone said OD is hiring with no experience, straight into linehaul while skipping the driver training school. I know with FedEx Freight, if you apply with less than the minimum requirements, the application automatically gets filtered out and the hiring manager never even sees it.
OTR not for me. How Do I get into LTL, Linehaul, FedEx, etc?

I'm about 6 months into my first truck driving job. After reading this thread I feel like I lucked out. I took this job knowing it would end in 6 months to a year so I'll be done sometime in February. The farming company I'm working for is getting rid of their trucks & changing their program.
Luckily I'll have seven months experience hauling heavy loads into Portland, OR traffic & driving an 8-axle, 102,000# truck. I don't anticipate having difficulty finding another job. 13 speed manual tranny of course.
Like others have said, hauling local (430 miles a day) means long hours, generally I'm gone 13 to 14 hours a day with commuting. Having weekends off is wonderful. I'll be kinda sad when this gig is over.
Good luck OP with your search!sventvkg, dwells40 and Wasted Thyme Thank this. -
