Yes, this post doesn't apply now; with all the energy development, trucking going to be in demand for a few years.

Guess what???? They get nobody hired. And thats a GOOD thing. Or they kick all of our butts out for somebody who wants to work cheaper. The race to the bottom will never end....but we CAN make it slow down a little. When I started to drive truck in the US I was wondering why in gods name they still use antique double clutch over here. After talking to many drivers I heard stuff like afraid of change and such.
But then somebody told me if all trucks are automatic much MORE people will come into this business and take our pay way down. That answer made most sense to me. And now that I am stuck in this machine called truck driving I dont want easy access into trucking either anymore. And the driving schools ONLY care about the 3k or 4k some driver already talked about. When I started driving with OTR (instead the LTL home daily stuff I do now) NOBODY told me about dirty truck stop showers, lot lizards and dock doors for straight trucks were you will park your 53 in. I remember my driving school teacher painting this nice picture that we see the nice country side and dont even have to pay for showers which are plenty and nice and you never have to wait and all that funny stuff. So if you want to work for cheap or almost free go right ahead....I just hope that others will NOT follow you.

The things need to know before joining the truck driving school are:
Price is naturally the first consideration
Location is other consideration
The major factor that separate the best school from the rest one.

Now, scope of truck driving job have increased. This will continue for next three years. Those who aspire to work in a good company, join in a best truck driving school. Those who don't have money, opt for company sponsored training, for return of your training you should work for minimum period of time in that company.
