All these compaines for the most part want at least 1-3 years of OTR! Im sure hoping something pans out for me soon since I spent $4690.00 on truck school and to date have gotten nothing but apps to fill out & turn downs!
The best advice I can give you is to keep trying Werner, Schneider, Prime and the likes. These company all accept newbie drivers with a CDL and NO experience. They have lower pay, similar to Swift and the other training companies but they offer you a chance to get you foot in the door and get some over the road experience.

Also make sure you check with the companies on this list. http://www.classadrivers.com/index.p...isting&EmpID=1
