Whats the best way to learn & at the same time get paid to become a truck driver ??

Question

Well, I'm thinking about becoming a truck driver...........I visited some sites such as Swift, C.R. England, Werner etc.........then I noticed that they'll pay you for training to get a CDL license..........but that looked kinda fishy..........so then I checked out Ripoff report....

Answer 1

You need to join a union they usually do pay and train with job placement after you complete your program that should get you started.

Answer 2

well the best way is start off at the bottom in a trucking company in in a couple years they should train u on the job to drive. most times if a company does it themselves you will learn and remember more because they want you to pass the test and drive good for them. plus you get paid during the training(which should take like 3 weeks max) so you dont have to worry. plus its actually cheaper for the company to train you themselves than pay someone because you probably dont get paid as much. just note that if you get that job you have a limited amount of hours you can work(by law)

Answer 3

Hello, those jobs listed are your best bet for experience. You can always change companies, however, do it by notifying the employer that you are not happy, because if you don't they will leave bad references on your dak report. After you have 6 months of experience go out and look for a good job close to home they are always looking for drivers.

Remember that people are going to always complain about something that creates greivances.
