Get the endorsements. Hazmat is the only one that requires more than a written test. The more you have on your license, the more options are available to you..."bird in the hand" sort of deal. Sure, "I can get it easy enough" ...but from an employer's standpoint, if it was "easy enough" for you to get, why haven't you got it?
As for the 1099/w2, in most cases you'll want to avoid the 1099's and stick to w2 working as a company driver. If/when you buy a truck, then you'll be 1099. Unless you know what you're doing, and more importantly unless the company knows what they are doing, it is very easy for you to get in over your head.

Flatbed is ok for new drivers, otherwise a company like Melton wouldn't hire them.
From my understand, Melton does a rigorous training orientation for new drivers on load securement and safety.
