About this job

Our company offers new CDL-A graduates a paid mentor program that leads directly into a solo OTR driving role. No prior professional driving experience is needed.

Pay

  • During the 4-6 week mentor phase, you're paid as you train
  • Once you go solo, you can earn $1,600-$1,800 per week
  • Paid weekly by direct deposit
  • Full benefits start once training wraps up

Training

You'll ride along with an experienced driver for four to six weeks, picking up hands-on skills beyond what CDL school teaches: trip planning and safe driving habits, handling pickups and deliveries, doing thorough pre- and post-trip inspections, staying in contact with dispatch, and managing the daily demands of OTR work. After training, you move into your own truck and start running solo.

Requirements

  • Current Class A CDL
  • Completed an accredited CDL training program
  • Clean driving record
  • Meets DOT qualification standards
  • Dependable, safety-minded, and open to mentorship
