Job Description - CDL-A Driver

South Indy drivers: Midwest runs, weekends at home, paid training for new CDL holders.

This seat is built for drivers who want a paycheck and a weekend. You run the Midwest out of the Indianapolis area and come home when the week is done.

What you earn

  • Paid every week during training
  • $1,000 a week guaranteed for your first 3 months solo
  • $1,000 to $1,700 a week once solo
  • 1,600 to 2,000 miles a week; drivers average about 1,900
  • $15 per stop except the first and last
  • Weekly direct deposit

Your week

Midwest freight with drop and hook, live loads and preloads. Planned loads, day and night dispatch, about 1,900 miles a week. Home on weekends.

New CDL? Here is the path

  • Call: we check your license and record with you first. No surprises later.
  • Orientation: up to 2 days, hotel covered, bus fare reimbursed, $300 once hired.
  • Training: 4 to 6 weeks one-on-one with a mentor, paid every week.
  • Solo: your own assigned truck, fleet average about 1.5 years old. For your first 3 months solo, your pay will not drop below $1,000 a week.

Nervous about your first driving job? Fair.

  • "How often will I see home?" Weekends.
  • "Does my CDL school count?" If it was 120 hours or more, yes.
  • "I am not good at backing yet." Nobody is on day one. You practice for weeks with a mentor beside you before you drive alone.
  • "Do I pay for orientation?" No. Hotel covered, bus ticket reimbursed, and $300 once you are hired.
  • "What if my first solo weeks are slow?" You still get at least $1,000 a week for your first 3 months solo.

What you need

  • Class A CDL from your state of residence, 21 or older
  • New CDL grad with 120+ school hours, or 6 months of recent experience
  • No more than 2 moving violations in the past 2 years
  • No DUI/DWI in the past 10 years
  • DOT physical and hair and urine drug screen

Benefits after 30 days

  • Medical, dental, vision and prescription
  • 401(k) and employee stock purchase plan
  • Paid time off and yearly raises
  • Free online degree for you and one family member
  • Pet and rider programs (your dog can ride with you once training is done)
