is registered with the State of Georgia as an LLC company. We have
been in business for almost 8 years. We are an independent recruiting,
consulting and job placement company that specializes in the trucking
industry. Our clients are CDL students, recent CDL graduates, CDL
drivers needing a refresher course and experienced CDL drivers.
Additional information is available in About
Us.
What can TCA do for me?
TCA
has relationships with many trucking companies and accredited independent
CDL training schools across the U.S. We make it a priority to know
which companies are hiring, which type(s) of drivers they are hiring,
what their requirements are and how to go about getting you placed.
We know how to expedite your placement and what these companies
are specifically looking for in their applicants. We mentor you
and coach you all along the way, and if you meet company qualifications,
you will almost certainly be hired right away.
How much will your services cost me?
Our
services will never cost you anything. We are paid by the trucking
company that hires you.
What services do you provide?
We
are in regular communication with you and are always available to
assist you. We work closely with you to fulfill whatever
your needs and objectives are depending on your CDL Class A status
and your driving experience. Along with your application to a trucking
company, we include all the required documents and/or information
so we can expedite review of your application and finalize your
hiring status. We ensure
that your transportation and lodging arrangements have been made.
We make sure that all arrangements are in place for you to complete
your training and for students, to begin your new career.
How do I know you can get me a job?
If
you have met the qualifications and the information you provided
is accurate and truthful, we will be able to place you. Even in
this ever-changing industry climate, we know which companies are
hiring, and which are not, and we know when companies close certain
hiring zones and/or open or re-open new hiring zones. Essentially,
we are fully informed of what is happening in the trucking industry
at any given time.
How long does the training take?
If you are a student in a paid CDL training
program, training takes approximately 3 weeks. If you are a recent
CDL graduate, orientation takes about 3-5 days.
How long is it before I begin earning
money?
If you are a student, you will be paid
a training income when you reach a certain level of training. Upon
completion of your training you then go on the company payroll.
What is the difference between an
independent CDL school and a company paid sponsored CDL training
program?
It's
important to do your due diligence when researching either an independent
CDL school or a company that offers sponsored CDL training. There
are three ways to get your CDL Class A License:
(1) Attend a non-company sponsored truck
driving school at your own expense*
(2) Find a company sponsored training program on your own **
(3) Let TCA represent you ***
*Option 1:
(1) An independent CDL school will cost
between $2,995 - $6,000+
(2) If you are not considered as creditworthy, you will need a co-signer
(3) Most schools offer no job placement services
(4) Some schools are not accredited and therefore not recognized
by trucking companies
(5) Some schools are negligent in advising an applicant that he/she
may not be eligible for hire
(6) There is no employment contract
*********************
**Option 2:
(1) If you don't
complete the company paid training program, you may owe money back
to the company
(2) You are required to sign an employment contract for one year
or longer
(3) If you don't fulfill the contract obligation, you are responsible
to reimburse the company for training expenses
***Option 3:
(1) TCA has diligently researched
a number of accredited CDL schools for recommendation
(2) TCA coordinates with both the school(s) and you to ensure job
placement
(3) These schools are accredited,
enjoy excellent reputations and are reasonably priced
(4) They frequently offer 1-1 training if needed
(5) They experience a high ratio of referrals by graduating students
to new students
