I am 20 years old and I graduate CDL class A school this month I will also have a unrestricted license. I have been looking for jobs all over but everything requires me to be 21, even some of the concrete companies require that I am 21. I need help finding a job where I’m able to use my license even if it’s class B work. I live in the metro Atlanta area and it would be very appreciated if anyone can help me out or point me in the right direction. Thank you

Yea, most are 21.

Do you have a

TWIC
Hazmat cert

?

What about getting on with a moving company, etc.?

My career started in freight but I've been out of it directly for a bit. Can ask around.

First off … amazing job. Really great work getting this so early.

Hmmm any chance a medical distributor like Cardinal Health or McKesson will hire you? Check their website. Some large healthcare systems have their own main DC and need loads trucked to their hospitals daily. You could try that. What about hospital linen companies … they use 18 wheelers?

I’m guessing this has something to do with insurance coverage? Hmmm.

It is all about the insurance restrictions. How long before you are 21? Unfortunately, I don't think you will get a really good CDL A job before you are 21. How about the school where you got your CDL? Do they offer job placement assistance?

I don’t have either of those endorsements yet and I haven’t thought about moving companies because of the hard work considering my stature but I could start taking a look if nothing else works out, at the moment the best offer I have is being a assistant in a class B lumber box truck, but I do want to explore my options first before settling down with that position.

Would you be willing and interested working remotely part time with our company …we have open positions .

You should, this morning, today, go to your Engineers Local in your area. I tried out with Local 150 Engineers, Midwest. You want to find out, in person, what the qualifications to join the local are. An engineer with a valid CDL is twice as valuable as one without. In Georgia the construction work is out of the yard and with the weather you have a longer season. Landscaping outfits and towing companies are also a good look. If you can pass a drug test and have no felony convictions, you are in good. Everything you see on the road with a trailer is a good place to apply. But do not delay, OTR trucking is taking a hit right now, so a lot of seasoned drivers are looking for work too. Be well, stay safe and good looking out young Jedi.☮️💙
