CDL-A Driver - Paid Training For Entry Level Drivers Job at American Driver, Bossier City, LA

  • American Driver
  • Bossier City, LA

Job Description

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

  • Paid every week during training
  • $1,000 a week guaranteed for your first 3 months solo
  • $1,200 to $1,800 a week once solo
  • 1,800 to 2,900 miles a week
  • $15 stop pay
  • Weekly direct deposit

Your week

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

  • "How often will I see home?" Every two weeks.
  • "I am not good at backing yet." Nobody is on day one. You practice for weeks with a mentor beside you before you drive alone.
  • "Does my CDL school count?" If it was 120 hours or more, yes.
  • "Do I pay for orientation?" No. Hotel covered, bus ticket reimbursed, and $300 once you are hired.
  • "What if my first solo weeks are slow?" You still get at least $1,000 a week for your first 3 months solo.

What happens after you apply

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.

Bossier City, Shreveport, Haughton and Benton drivers, apply today.

Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants are considered regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, or protected veteran status.
