If you can go this route, you'll have several companies to choose from.

 

Are you near Portland or Monmouth or Albany?

 

Sygma Network and Sysco sometimes hire drivers with only a CDL-A Permit.
Also, hire new cdl school grads right out of school.
Contact both companies and ask if they're currently hiring drivers with only a CDL-A Permit.

OP, The maximum I've seen an insurance company look back is ten years, and that was for DWI/DUI.

Most companies don't look back much beyond 5 years and the average is 3 years for MVR issues.

A large percentage of carriers do not do a through criminal history due to cost and the need for fingerprints.

All the 'free' criminal check DAC/hirerite users get is a name check and hits every level of the criminal court system so you get the local, county and state repeating ad nausem so it usually gets tossed. One old offense generates 3 - 5 pages and was usually useless.

You are employable in this industry. Be prepard to discuss your answer to anything the carrier might find referencing your performance after paying your debt...IF IT COMES UP!!!!!

You may need to explain what you were doing when you were inside, in the future, if the carrier puts effort into the required background investigation.

Third party digital qualification companies could be anal about looking back ten years.

As you are looking into obtaining a CDL; your first carrier only needs an unbroken history back three years on your Part 391 qualification file for employment, driving, etc.

Chinatown will steer you now get that CDL and go.
