Job Description

CDL-A Trainee Truck Driver | Paid Training Available | Chicago, IL

No Experience Needed — Start Earning Immediately

If you’re ready to launch a long-term trucking career, our CDL-A trainee program based in the Chicago metro area gives you paid training, a professional mentor, and a direct path into a full-time solo driving position with strong weekly income.


Pay Breakdown

  • Training Pay (First 4–6 Weeks): $650 per week

  • Solo Driver Pay After Upgrade: $1,050–$1,450+ weekly

  • Mileage Pay (Post-Training): $0.43–$0.51 CPM

  • Stop Pay: $15 per stop after upgrade

  • Equipment: Assigned late-model tractor once solo qualified


Route & Schedule

  • OTR Schedule: 12–14 days out with a 34-hour reset at home

  • Freight: No-touch dry van — live load/unload + drop & hook

  • Running Area: 48-state OTR once training is complete

  • Home Base: Chicago metro and suburbs


Hiring Requirements

  • Valid CDL-A (recent CDL school grads accepted)

  • Must be willing to run OTR for two consecutive weeks

  • Must live within 200 miles of Chicago, IL

  • Professionalism, safety mindset, and strong work ethic


Why This Trainee Program Stands Out

  • Weekly pay from day one

  • Structured mentor-based training

  • Fast upgrade path to solo driver

  • Stable freight and strong earning potential

  • Long-term nationwide career opportunities
