Hey guys, I am a class 1 with air brake certified driver. I got my 15hr training course completed from CCA driving school here in SE Calgary.
I have been frequently browsing the careers threads here and seeing if there are any other ppl interested in driving locally. I read over the oil rig thread, but I am not in the position where i can live in the camp sites up north and work for weeks at a time in the heavy haul business.
I am first looking at getting on with a local company which offers on the job training and is willing to hire rookie class 1 drivers.
I have fired off resumes via email to companies as H&R Transport, Direct transport. All the companies I talk to are looking for drivers with 2years OTR experience.
So if any of you beyonders know anyone in the business or has hookups who can lend a helping hand, that would be greatly appreciated.
I am looking at any pay grade, doesnt matter if it's $14/hr or $18/hr, I just need to gain my experience so I can start my career path.
