Question:
I've been in and out of 'local' trucking since 1991. My CDL and medical
are current, I have a wide variety of experience, with the exception of
over the road. OTR is just not for me. I recently started searching for
truck driving positions via the internet. I'm getting many responses
from OTR companies. That seems to be the main focus of the recruiters
that I have contacted so far.
Does anyone have any ideas/pointers on narrowing my search to
companies that provide local work?
Answer:
-Most local trucking companys use the Human Resource Dept. of the towns
unemployment office. Many offer online service.If you want to expand
your search just google... Local CDL Jobs/ enter your town or state.Good
luck on the search...
-Local newspapers are best for this.
-Gasoline, and construction companies are most of the time local. You've got
to hit the bricks and look. I've always said that when looking for a company
to work for look and see if they have drivers that retire.
