Drivers Wanted

Ever since you were a kid, you've always wondered what it would be like to drive one of those big rigs you'd see tooling along the Interstates.

You probably asked yourself how those guys got their start in the business. What did they have to do before someone trusted them with a $200,000 tractor-trailer?

The answer is simple. Thousands of those drivers went to school at PDI. The Professional Driver Institute gave them the classroom and behind-the-wheel training they needed in just four weeks.

If you want a great job with excellent pay, top benefits, and rock-solid job security, a career in trucking could just be the opportunity you've been looking for.

Let's look at why.

You'll be in demand. There's a need for more than 500,000 truck drivers nationwide, you are virtually ensured a job.

Ongoing job security. Trucks deliver food, oil and gas, clothing, building materials, mail, cars - just about everything we need and use.

Good pay and benefits. Commercial truck drivers usually earn over $30,000 their first year, and experienced drivers can make $90,000 a year and more! Plus most firms offer health insurance benefits for drivers and their families, paid vacations and holidays, retirement plans, and other benefits.

Reimbursement. Many truck companies reimburse the driving-school tuition expense of their new hires.

Choice and independence. You can choose from local, regional, and over-the-road driving jobs. Whether you're behind the wheel of an 18-wheeler, or a straight truck you're in charge. And proud of it.

Entrepreneurial opportunities. 70% of the nation's trucking companies operate six trucks or less. Many of the country's largest trucking carriers started as single-truck operations. Someday, you could be your own boss.
