If your cdl driving school offered you job placement assistance upon passing your cdl test, did they have a hard time finding you a LOCAL job?
It seems as if their "job placement assistance" is good for otr jobs, but I'm not so sure about local jobs.

Most local jobs want at least 2 years experience. Conway will train you if they have a terminal near you.

We have a school around here that advertises local work available all the time.

The local work they can help get you is hanging off the back of a garbage truck all day.

No thanks.

The school I went to just gives you a list of companies and their requirements. I found better jobs on my own.
