    Thanks for help. I know there is a Trucking company in Kennesaw, GA, but don't remember the name or know if they hire recent Grads?

    Try to get hazmat. Not required for all companies, but many do look at it favorably.

    Company in Rydal, GA. I am assuming it helps to work for a company not far from home. Not the most important choice, but might make a difference?

    Trucking companies go by hiring area and if you live in the hiring area, you're hired.
