    I graduated the trucking school today with a CDL and PTDI certificate, but last week I had a call from my family and they wanted my help over there at their business from June 6 to July 12, I mean family always come first so I ant to help but then there's like 2 months time lapse between my graduation and if I look for work in the trucking business that accept recent student graduates, would I still be considered a recent graduate? I mean the trucking companies would ask that why I didn't look for work right away? So is the 2 months period time okay or not?

    frankly it all depends on each company. one company i dealt with at my school said if after 30 days OF NOT DRIVING, you will have to go back to school for the entire course, NOT a refresher....!!!!!

    i'd go with 90 days TOPS...but i ain't the one hiring......summer time is fast approaching us......you wannabe waiting till maybe fall/winter if there is nothing when you "get back"....????

    then guess where YOU WILL BE GOING....

    that's right, BACK to school.......

    For many it's 90 days, some it's 60 days, and I ran into one with a 30 day limit which was with KLLM.
