What recruiters don't put in the ad
The contract trap
Free CDL training usually means a 12-month commitment. Quit at month 4 and you can owe thousands. We publish the amount — and how it shrinks month by month.
Hair vs. urine test
Some carriers test hair follicles (looks back ~90 days), others urine (~30 days). One wrong application can end your career before it starts. We list which company does which.
Second-chance rules
A felony from 6 years ago or a DUI from 4 years ago opens some doors and closes others — every carrier's waiting period is different. We track them in one filter.
Home time, honestly
“Home weekly” can mean 34 hours. We record the actual rookie schedule per fleet, next to pet and rider policies and the states they actually hire in.
