Hello, I just want to say thank you in advance for all any advice anyone might give me.
I just recently graduated and obtain my CDL A. I currently have no endorsement ( I’m currently planning on getting tanker this week), but for now I’ve been researching and reading on how to get my foot inside the industry as a first time driver. I at first thought maybe use mega carrier and work for a few months just for the experience. but then I read about all the other drivers review on the company’s and how it can ruin your experience/ career. I then try to look up what company would accept new driver but some reason these online job boards like indeed/ cdljobnow job ad claim new driver welcome but when i click and look at the job description they say 3-6 months of experience so that’s disappointing. So far I’ve had no success in finding a decent company. If anyone could suggest company’s in NYC area or neighboring states I would gladly appreciate it, and thank you
