Starting cpm for NJ / NY

Hello. I have gotten the Hazmat, triples and tank endorsements. I applied for the tank division at Schneider since they would allow me to come back weekly.

I had a phone interview and found out I cannot do the job because I can't lift 90 lb over chest level. The cpm for that was 45. Then inquired about something where I would haul carpet. They pay 34 cpm. I understand one is Hazmat and the other isn't.

What is the starting cpm for a new driver? Would it be more beneficial for me to for something that does require Hazmat? Would I get more cpm in such a case?

Thabk you for your time.

 

They told me its from some company they recently acquired. No veterancy. Their intermodel requires 12 months experience.

 

I have applied to yrc since they told me they have a waver for the Hazmat. I don't have it yet. I was told I passed 3 of 3 background checks and I can get the interm license. But yrc wouldnt take because of that. At the same time the terminal I applied at tells me they need drivers and to apply since I am getting Hazmat soon.

 

No. Not many. I called up most companies I found here and they said it's outside of the hiring zone. Some companies said there are jobs out there because it can get cold.
