I know, I know...How do I get experience when no one will give me for a trucking job where I can get the driving experience! It's frustrating, but your not alone. A lot of drivers are going through the same thing. So what does that mean....well that means you have to shine more than them to get the spots that's available!
Before trying to get truck driver experience, visit this page about good truck drivers so that you know exactly what type of driver the trucking industry (and every company) needs and then come back.

We will wait for you here......

Now that you have learned what a company needs and wants, be sure to let it come across when your are interviewed or on applications that you fill out when it asks if you have further comments. Never leave that section blank on any application trucking or otherwise. Always take advantage of that to let the positive side of you shine and to thank them for considering you. That alone will put you ahead of some of your peers trying to get the job.

Also read a little background on a company before you go in to an interview so you can reference something about the company if you are asked why you want to go to work at that company. Many good companies will ask this. Some to get a genuine idea of your interest, others to see how well you are at thinking or a being prepared.

These are little things in itself. Each thing you do right adds up in your favor. Don't take them for granted. Nail the little things, especially if you need to make up for other things like a less that perfect driving or criminal record.

If you have a bad record your attitude and personality must carry a lot of weight to keep them interested in you because remember, they don't know you and only know what they see on paper and what you are able to tell them in your communications or on the application.

Continue reading about how to get truck driving job experience as a newbie.

Remember: You need to stand out from the others who are also seeking employment. Some ideas will follow.

How To Get Trucking Experience As a New Driver/CDL holder

Tips for New Drivers or CDL Training School Graduates

For new CDL holders, getting a trucking job can be tough because a lot of companies want a year of experience but you can't get experience because no one will give you a trucking job right!?!

It's enough for a serious headache! Don't worry it will past.(the headache I mean! LOL) First calm down and relax and stay positive, it's not a personal attack on you.

Getting Truck Driving Experience for the New CDL Holder 101

First - go to Vistaprint.com and order some free business cards with your name and contact information on it.

(Be for-warned vista WILL harass you with emails, so if you have an alternate email account use the alternate.)

If you have a few dollars maybe you may want to get some better cards from them without their advertising on the back.

Or you can also use my affiliate and the people who do my printing... Promote your business with free business cards from www.printplace.com!.

Later you will use these cards to pass out to everyone you meet. Especially those working where there is a lot of trucking going on but other people you meet also. This includes everyone from trucking companies to other drivers and owner operators and even shipper or receivers in warehouses or managers who work at large manufacturers. (The reason I said get your cards first is because it takes time for the cards to come back.)

Second - Go to one of these trucking sites that will allow you to fill out one application and the trucking companies comb through and pic what drivers application they are interested in.

This works for some applicants and not for some others because everything matters to make the best matches for you and the company. Your location, driving record, criminal record, endorsements, job history, military experience, volunteer work, (who knows what else a company prefer or for what reason, maybe in some area you will be exactly what a company is looking for but maybe not.

The internet of course makes it easy to pick out a driver from all those applications that may suit their needs or desire so it's worth the time to use these databases as long as it's free.
You DO NOT want to sit back and wait for one of the trucking companies from that one application to call you. Remember, there are a lot of drivers filling those out, that's just one step in the process.

Third - Go to the nearest truck stop to you and get some trucking magazines with the companies listed so you have a lot of trucking companies in one place on paper(If you find yourself waiting somewhere conducting business you can conveniently look through the magazine which is more difficult with the internet).

Your saying, "Why do I need to do this won't they call me from the application I just filled out if they want me?"

No, not all trucking companies use those services. Many of those listed these magazines will not use the service you just filled out that one application for. Some of those services cost the trucking company and some just prefer the old fashion way.
Plus, it's kind of cool for you to use the trucking magazine because you will see maps illustrating where the company is hiring and where the company runs (it's operating lanes, and hiring lanes too). This gives you a real good idea of who to call first. You ideally want a job at a trucking company near where you live or whose operating lane goes through where you live. This makes it likely that you will get home more frequently. But of course, if your are trying to get experience then you shouldn't be too picky yet. You have to be flexible and yes that means you will not get home as much.

For the rest of the steps, I hope your cards are back. If you plan on getting to this step rather quickly. You should check your Local Fed Ex Kinkos Center

Fourth - You want to pay attention to the manufacturers and/or distribution centers in your area with company trucks that haul their products over the road. Stop in and speak to their human resources to see if they are hiring. Take your business cards. If you meet people on your way in who works there, greet them with a smile, tell them you hope to be working with them someday and pass them a card.

(I know this is not usual, dont worry about that, we are going to do this my way, what good is it to do what everyone else does?

Stand out. Create your own path. Be unique. And not just to get this job, I mean take on that characteristic in your personality that you don't worry so much as to whether you conform to what is perceived to others as being normal or standard. (Assuming that we are on the same page talking about actions from a positive standpoint.)

Now, many of those companies will want experience but not all, it won't hurt and you never know who you will meet that could help you.

Let your good positive attitude and smiling face shine and impress everyone you talk to starting from the receptionist.If you came up from the streets where you were taught that smiling was a sign of being soft you need to realize that your not on the street and trying to be hard is only intimidating in an office or even to other employees. You want to show that you are easy to get along with and not a threat to a peaceful and productive work environment.

Note: If they say something about needing a local truck driver or yard switcher but experience is required and you want a local trucking job, this may be an rare opportunity for you to get trucking experience and land a local job if you want and are willing to take a small hit. Think about this....

Tell them you will work for free for 2 weeks training at that job with the person they already have and after the two weeks they can decide if you are someone that they can use. You never know what their response will be until you ask.

At that point they either need to decide if they will began to pay while your getting more productive or they can let you move on. This is just a thought but a powerful one. Thinking outside of the box is what creates opportunity for people. It has a the advantage of less competition than doing what everyone else does or doing things the way they have always been done just because.

Fifth - Sign up for self improvement classes that may be free or cheap as continuing ed coursed at community colleges or Small Business Centers. Also ask people as the education center if there are classes given for people in the transportation industry or for personnel management, time management, etc.

These are classes that will not only better you as a person which will only add to the value you could bring to a company willing to give you a chance, but you never know who you will meet in these classes. Remember your business cards?

Mingle and hold natural conversations with these people, find out who they are and what they do. Tell them about your ambitions to start your career in trucking. Let them know about the wall you have hit and how anxious you are to get started but how aware you are of the need to have patience and be persistent. How you know you will make someone a great driver because you know what is important to the job and the needs of the company.

Now in the process of these conversations if you indeed are the person that I hope you are or will become, if there is someone there that can help you get a job or introduce you to someone who can, trust me they will. Most people like to help people, once you show that you are good people and trying to better your life plus you seem like you would make an employer a great employee your card will be passed on automatically.

You have showed them that you deserve to be given a chance to shine!

Now I think you have some tools at your disposal to try and get yourself some good trucking experience as a new CDL holder. Be patient, keep your head up and stay at it.

If you haven't read this page about being a good truck driver by now you should she that you should so go read it.
