Hoping For Some Advice?

You can take Crete/Shaffer off the list. You'd need a minimum six months driving before consideration of hire.

Thank you guys for the list and information. As matter fact, live 15 miles from I-35. I've printed those carries off and give it a try. Unfortunately, I don't have 6 months, but would be willing to be considered by a company as new in training.

And I have no felonies, or DUI's.

Thanks guys!

Keep us updated on how things go.

Hay guys:

Did y'all check out Raider Express, in DFW? They pay a full $1K for training, which isn't bad!

Maybe you did; I know Kerry is 'nailing it' with the research! Sometimes a 'training' company bounces into my brain as I look at old pix when I used to run w/Tom, and see various rigs on the road...LoL!

ps: Covenant is 'trying' to go mostly teams, if y'all were looking there, LoL.

I totally forgot about Raider Express in Fort Worth. Great suggestion.

Anne, thanks so much for the acknowledgement. When I am ready to hang up the steering wheel on my driving career, I think I see a future for myself helping people find trucking jobs...or maybe all manner of blue collar jobs. Ok, kind of daydreaming now.

At one point, both Covenant and CR England were doing teaming training and by that I mean two students and a trainer all in one truck. That's just crackhead nuts.

I won't mind having to do a refresher course, if a company says that's what it will take to get hired, but I strongly desire to avoid having to go through an entire training program from scratch.

Thanks again, Anne.

Thank all of you for your replies! And I will definitely keep folks up to date. Appreciate all responses...

Just found another company that hires out of Texas with no experience. I had not heard of this company before seeing an email from Ziprecruiter about this outfit.

Rouse Trucking

I submitted an application, so I will be trying to search out information on the company.

Hey Brian,

Here is another company that I found.

Eagle Transportation www.eagletuscon.com

I had never heard anything about this company until they reached out to me through Ziprecruiter. I looked them up on here and there are positive things mentioned about them on this site. They are based out of Phoenix and Tucson snd run all 48. They also have regional routes with a Western division and a regional based in Fort Worth, TX. I put in an application. They have a training school for people looking to get a CDL , and they also hire CDL grads.

One interesting thing to note about Eagle Transportation and the training program they offer (more for those who may come across this post seeking information) is that they only require a 9 month commitment instead of the standard full year. Hell, Pride Transport requires a year commitment even though they don't actually pay for the schooling. With Eagle Transportation having a school they funnel through, I wouldn't have a problem doing a one or two week refresher and committing to them for 9 months. Wherever I land, I don't have any aspirations of jumping to the next big thing because having the background that I do, the next company probably isn't going to be substantially better than the company where I am at that moment. Might as well run my happy butt until I retire to become an HR generalist with the uber professional Anne (inside joke).

Ok, I went from providing good information to telling the story of my trucking career before it happens. Good job, Kerry.

GREAT Job, Kerry!!

Eagle, Tuscon . . . no knowledge; first thought of these guys, below. Eagle Transport Logistics, CMH. Eagle Transport & Logistics (the ONLY Eagle that flies, haha!) Great Dry Van & tanker company; was wondering HOW , hahaha!!

Eagle Transport (this one!) . . . IS in our backyard, per se. Not bad...either. Don Stallings started the company with tanks. JSYK! Tom & Ted (from Saunders, LLc) met him. Circa, 2014. Bet PJ knows 'em too!

Apparently, your find isn't a spinoff... so, NO TANKS FOR YOU! Eagle in Ohio does dry van now...mostly!

Ttys..

PS: 9 MONTHS LOYALTY PROGRAM.. (contract?) << with YOUR find, JSYK~!!!!

Do a search for Eagle Transportation on this site and you will find at least one thread on them.

It is a 9 month contract and it is only required for drivers who have gone through their school to acquire CDL. I couldn't find them on the FMCSA site, so if my application is not declined, I will ask them for their USDOT number to look them up that way.
