CDL-A Trainee Driver - Paid Mentorship Program
Just graduated CDL school and having trouble getting hired? We will put you in a truck.
Most carriers demand 1–2 years of experience before they even look at your application. We take a different approach: if you completed your training and hold a valid CDL-A, our Paid Mentor Program will bridge the gap between school and a confident solo career.
No fine print, no unpaid waiting periods, and no physical freight loading.
THE TRAINING PROGRAM
- 4 to 6 Weeks Paid Mentorship: Learn real-world OTR driving with an experienced mentor
- Guaranteed Pay: You get paid every single week during training—no low mileage penalties or surprise deductions.
- Instant Progression: Transition directly to full solo pay rates the moment you complete the program.
- $300 Paid Orientation: We provide your hotel room and cover transportation to get you started.
PAY & FULL BENEFITS
- $1,300 to $1,550 average weekly earnings once going solo (top performers clear $1,800+).
- Benefits after 30 days: Full Medical, Dental, Vision, and Prescription coverage.
- 401(k) with Company Match + Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP).
- PTO: Paid time off starts accruing on your very first day.
- Company-paid Life and Disability Insurance.
EQUIPMENT & FREIGHT
- Assigned Equipment: 2022 or newer Kenworth or Freightliner (automatic, equipped with APU).
- No Slip-Seating: Once assigned, the truck is yours—you don't move your gear every week.
- 100% No-Touch Freight: Dry van loads, approximately 70% drop-and-hook.
- 2,200 to 2,800 miles per week average across East of I-35 lanes.
SCHEDULE
- 12 Days Out / 2 Days Home: True OTR setup. Stable, predictable home time rotations.
REQUIREMENTS
- Must be at least 21 years old with a valid Class A CDL and DOT Medical Card.
- Graduated from an accredited CDL school (120+ hours) OR have under 6 months of recent OTR experience.
- Clean driving record.
- Able to pass a standard background check and pre-employment drug screen.
