CDL-A Truck Driver - Paid Training Program

$650 per week

American Driver

Job Description

Fresh out of CDL school and ready to start earning? American Driver runs a structured, paid training program built specifically for new Class A drivers. No simulators, no classrooms—just real freight, real mentorship, and a guaranteed pay path from your first week behind the wheel.

Pay Structure and Progression

We protect your paycheck while you gain experience. Here is exactly what you will earn:

During Training (Weeks 1–6): $650 / week (Flat rate while driving with a mentor).
First 3 Months Solo: $0.56 / mile with a $1,000 / week minimum guarantee.
After 3 Months: Pay climbs to $0.56–$0.64 / mile (Averaging $1,200 to $1,700 / week).

How the Training Works

For 4 to 6 weeks, you will be paired with an experienced trainer who rides with you on actual regional routes. Your trainer tracks your progress and signs off as soon as you are ready to run solo.

What you will master:

Hands-on Class A tractor-trailer operation.
ELD systems and Hours-of-Service (HOS) compliance.
Proper pre-trip and post-trip inspections (DVIRs).
Professional dispatch communication and company procedures.

What to Expect After Training

Freight Type: Consistent regional dry van freight.
Home Time: Weekly home time to reset with family.
Equipment: Safe, modern, and 100% DOT-compliant equipment.
Support: 24/7 professional dispatch and driver support.

Job Requirements

To qualify for our entry-level program, you must meet the following criteria:

Valid Class A CDL (Commercial Driver's License).
Must be 21 years of age or older.
120+ hours completed from an accredited CDL school.
Clean driving record (MVR).
Must pass a DOT physical and pre-employment drug screen.
