Strong
Trucking Industry
As an Esparza Professional graduate, you
should feel confident in your ability to obtain a good job
as a driver in this strong trucking economy. The trucking
industry contributes an enormous amount of money to the
economy.
The
combination of common carriers and private truck fleets
accounts for over $175 billion of annual revenue. To meet
the freight demand that generates these revenues, trucking
companies have a virtually limitless need for drivers. The
more drivers a company hires, the more freight they can
haul. And there is plenty of cargo to be transported. As
the saying goes, "if you got it, a truck brought it."
Newly trained drivers typically earn $32,000 to
$36,000 per year according to industry data. The
average experienced driver earns over $40,000 plus
benefits, according to the ATA, and motivated drivers with
some experience can earn well over that amount
The
American Trucking Associations reports that at least until
the year 2005 the trucking industry will need to hire
403,000 truck drivers each year to fill empty
seats.
Moreover,
the Occupational Outlook Handbook published by the U.S.
Department of Labor reports that "opportunities
should be favorable for persons interested in truck
driving. This occupation has among the largest number of
job openings each year."
But to take advantage of the market, you need the
right training from Esparza Professionals. We provide the
skills that make you marketable, give you confidence and offer
the opportunity to give you freedom and lifetime job
satisfaction.
