Job Description

Just graduated CDL school in the Gulf Coast area and having trouble getting hired? We will put you in a truck. We are currently hiring CDL-A trainees directly out of Moss Point, Jackson County, and the surrounding MS Gulf Coast region . 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 in the passenger seat.
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 active 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%

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

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. Stop applying to carriers that require years of experience you don't have yet.
