Speeding ticket.

Yes most companies look at 3 years. The 18 over will no doubt hurt you. Be prepared for a lot of rejections, but you CAN get a job, maybe not the one you want right away, but you should be able to find something. Build experiance, stay clean then move on

 

A lot of companies won't touch you, I had a 19 over, got many rejections and 3 job offers

 

That's what I meant I also meant fmcsr, and not fmcsas, but due to no edit I just hoped you'd overlook that. I meant to say most big companies. I had to type and delete a lot in that post. Lol

 

It's hard to say, where do you live? Find another private school, or community college. Foodservice companies bend their requirements sometimes. When they are desperate for drivers they lower their standards, if they have enough drivers to choose from it will be harder. Beverage companies are more work and less pay but easier to get. I got an offer from nestle water, but I passed on it. You can try pepsi, Coke, dr pepper. Also try small local companies. Think outside the box, not just trucking companies. I work for a small chain of stores, they own 2 trucks and I delivor product from their werehouse to their stores and customers. All local. Look into any type of company that has their own truck and needs a driver. Sometimes they are less strict than trucking companies.

 

By the way, my other offer was from YRC freight. But it was an on call position. On call 24/7/365. Would have to report to work within 2 hours of being called. Told them no thank you. That's not the life for me. The guy laughed at me. It could have paid off in a few years, but would have killed my family life.

 

I don't know that area so I can't give you any specific suggestions. But someone will take you. You may find a good job right away, if not once you put in your time a lot of doors will open.

 

Sounds like you have a bit to follow up with from the suggestions above but doesn't seem hopeless... Focus on the things you can do and maybe contact a local lawyer that is up to speed on the local options to address this ticket at this point.
