    I’ll be living in Visalia but trying to work out of Fresno since there’s more work opportunities there. But I’ve definitely found that out pretty quickly I mean I clear over 4k a month pushing paper at my current employer and the starting pay and headache it seems for a new cdl driver isn’t really making sense to me at the moment. Is it mandatory to get hazmat in California?

    No, hazmat isn't a requirement for California truckers. Some trucking companies require it, but the state of California doesn't.

    It can be difficult now with so many drivers looking for work. Many companies that hired cdl school grads with no experience, now require some experience.
