Hello ladies! Thinking outside of the box for career change. I have been an emergency room nurse for 13 years and the location I was working at just shut down. I saw this coming and was already looking into getting my cdl. I live in west Texas where the oil industry is booming so naturally that’s all the companies you see are hiring for, CDL Drivers. There is a community college here who offers a 4 week course for cdl, my question is, is it better to go that route or find company paid training? I’m not sure how recruitment looks fresh out of community college or if it’s better to sign on with company that pays for training and job placement. Any advice on either and if anyone has any suggestions for best company paid training for female driver in Texas! Looking to get my permit soon! Thanks in advance!
