Questions drivers in Illinois ask
Which trucking companies in Illinois hire drivers with no experience?
Large carriers with finishing programmes take recent graduates in Illinois: the listings above that say "no experience" or "recent graduates" are the ones to apply to first. Expect a few weeks of paired driving with a trainer and a lower rate per mile until you have three months on the road. Our list of new-graduate carriers explains what each one requires.
How much do CDL drivers make in Illinois in their first year?
First-year pay depends far more on the type of work than the state. Over-the-road solo work usually pays by the mile; local and dedicated work pays hourly or by the day and keeps you home. Our first-year salary reality check breaks the numbers down with sources, and the listings above show the range carriers are advertising in Illinois right now.
Do any Illinois carriers hire drivers with a felony?
Some do, case by case, depending on the offence, how long ago it was and your driving record since. Our second-chance companies page lists carriers by policy. On the driver profile form you can tick the second-chance box so we route you only to partners who consider those applications.
Why does this page not link to the job posts?
Because you should not have to fill in twelve applications. Our hiring partners pay CDL Schools USA when a driver we refer is seated, so we route one profile to the partner covering your zip and they call you. The carriers listed here are counted from public posts today so you can see who is hiring and what they publish on pay.
Does it cost anything to be placed?
No. Drivers never pay. Carriers pay the placement fee. You send your profile once, and the hiring partner covering your zip contacts you.
