Trucking jobs are very attractive, even for drivers with little experience. They have been and probably always will be the highest paid entry-level jobs that a person can get. Most truckers already make an average of $35,000 in their first year out on the road. After a few years out, those same truckers are making an average of $45,000-$50,000 annually and it is nothing exceptional that veterans make over $100,000 when they are owner of their own truck. What other profession can you get into, where the pay is comparable? All you need to start with is a drivers license and many trucking companies are offering a free or even paid driver training.

The other great reason to get into trucking is the chance to explore our great country. There is no other job around where you are able to see all the beauties of our America like the Yellowstone Park, The Grand Canyon, the Great Smoky Mountains, the Pacific Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico, and so much more I could mention here. If you want to explore America, become a trucker!
But don’t think that trucking is an easy job. You are away from home a lot but even that, you do have some control over. If you prefer to be at home quite a bit, you will be able to find trucking jobs where you are able to be at home every night - even if those jobs usually don’t pay as well as the long haul jobs do.

Check out the 2ajobguide to find thousands of trucking vacancies waiting for your application. This page is using Indeed®, a so-called meta job search engine searching thousands of job databases for daily updated job offers. Indeed was founded by Paul Forster and his partner Rony Kahan in the year 2004 and is on its way to Americas most important Job Search Engine, gaining terrain against job banks like HotJobs, Monster, Careerbuilder or America’s Job Bank.

Paul and Rony wanted to radically improve online job searching and create the best job search experience on the web - a site where job seekers could go to one place to find all jobs, overcoming the limitation of the job boards which have a finite number of listings. They did it and the result is impressive. There are more job sites than you can count, ranging from the top job sites like Monster and CareerBuilder to small, niche sites in just about every career field you can imagine. Indeed is searching in an all-in-one approach to more than 1200 engines at a time and brings you the result in seconds on your screen. With a couple of clicks of your mouse, you search the major job sites, company sites, associations, and other online job sites by keyword and location to get job listings that match the criteria you selected. With it’s high-tech search strategy, Indeed clearly leaves behind other so-called meta-job search engines like Jobster and SimpyHired.

With a little ambition and a good plan a person can get a trucking job and out perform even the top college graduate starting salaries driving a truck.
