    Ok so I just got my license and I paid 1500$ for tuition I got 50 hours of driving exp and I cant get a job, its the typical need 1 year of exp or 3-6 months. I been applying everywhere and when the recruiters call back they all say the same thing I need at least 160 hours of exp. So now im considering goin to a school that a company will pay my hotel stay for 3 weeks and the tuition. So the question im asking here is should i just take their course and suck it up so I can get the experience I need to find a job or continue looking with my 50 hours of experience?

    Some companies will hire you even with the short school.
    Where is your location; city/state?

    Have you tried Melton? It's flat bed, but they take recent grads, you will need to go with a trainer at first
