What are the responsibilities and job description for the CDL-A Driver - Paid Training For Entry Level Drivers position at American Driver?
Shreveport-Bossier drivers: new CDL, paid training, and up to 2,900 miles a week once solo.
No experience is not a reason we turn you down. If you have 120 hours from CDL school, you qualify for paid mentor training.
What You Earn
OTR lanes east of Denver, no Northeast. Drop and hook, live loads and preloads. Out about two weeks, then home.
What New Drivers Ask Us
A recruiter calls the same business day and goes over your license and record with you. Orientation takes 2 days at most; the hotel is covered, your bus ticket is reimbursed, and you get $300 for attending once hired. Then you ride 4 to 6 weeks with a mentor who coaches you on backing, logs, fueling and trip planning, and you are paid every week while you learn. When you are ready, you get your own assigned truck, about 1.5 years old on average. For your first 3 months solo, your pay will not drop below $1,000 a week.
To qualify
You must be 21 or older with a Class A CDL. New drivers need at least 120 hours from a CDL school; otherwise, 6 months of recent experience. We accept up to 2 moving violations in the last 2 years and no DUI/DWI in the last 10. You will also pass a DOT physical and a hair and urine drug test.
Once you pass 30 days
Full medical, dental, vision and prescription coverage, a 401(k), an employee stock purchase plan, paid vacation, yearly raises, and a free online degree for you and one family member. Pets and riders are allowed; trainees can bring a dog once training is finished.
