OTR Recruiters Needed More Than Ever Before

More Than Ever Before
There Is A Need For OTR Recruiters

In recent years, there have been many changes in the otr trucking industry.  Underwriting has gotten tighter, companies are increasingly using a driver's DAC Report as a critical hiring barometer, CSA 2010 has entered the picture, and numerous current and pending regulations are affecting many areas of the otr driver's profession.  It's become somewhat of a jungle out there ....

But quietly residing in the jungle are the independent otr recruiters, professionals who have an extensive knowledge of the industry and are in tune with the current climate and trends.  We are otr headhunters who are often 'under the radar', with a big percentage of our business coming from referrals from other otr drivers.  And it's become very apparent that now, more than ever before, there is a serious need for otr headhunters.






Let A Professional Do The Work For You

I recently read a thread in a trucker's forum which went something like this:  a driver posted that he was specifically looking for an otr headhunter to help him find a job.  Driver two replied by basically slamming the concept, saying that driver one could do all this work himself by researching the Internet, and using email and a phone.  Driver one immediately countered with why should he have to take all this time and make all this effort when there are professionals out there that could do it for him, more efficiently and with better results.  He added that he had other equally important things to do and he felt there were better ways to manage his time and go about the business of a job search.
And you know what, he's absolutely right !

OTR Headhunters Work One-On-One

Independent recruiters, such as Trucking Careers of America, do not work for any trucking company.  We may represent several companies or numerous companies, but all have been carefully selected.  One thing is certain:  we work for you, and we work one-on-one with you, to help you find the job you are looking for.  We are performance motivated and charge no fees for our services.
In our case, thanks to modern technology and a sophisticated custom developed program that took years to develop, we can offer an otr driver the best way to conduct an otr job search.  And this is exciting news ... but more on that in a moment, so stay with us.

The OTR Headhunter Is The Best Choice
It's A No Brainer ....


When you take a closer look at the benefits of using an OTR headhunter, it becomes very clear that this is the better choice because professional OTR headhunters:
are well informed and in tune with the industry
are career advisors and job placement specialists
are performance motivated getting paid only when you go to hire
work for you focusing on finding you the job that meets your objectives
want to establish a long-term relationship with you for your future needs

Tell Us What You Are Looking For
And We'll Find It ...
Eliminating 'The Good And The Ugly'

The obvious question now is: how can an independent otr recruiter stay on top of the thousands of trucking companies out there and know everything there is to know that will help an otr driver make the right decision?

That's a really good question and we have a really good answer ...


We often refer to 'the good, the bad and the ugly' of the industry. It's taken many years to develop and fine-tune a sophisticated research system as extensive as ours; one that meets our strict criteria. Continually updated, our system allows us to do an extensive search for quality trucking companies offering positions based on your criteria and what you are looking for.

We then customize and refine additional job searches until finally generating a profile that marries the otr driving job you want with a quality trucking company looking for your particular objectives, experience, background and skills. Working on-on-one with you we will refine your job search to produce the results you need.

We have a built-in rating system that allows us to separate 'the bad and the ugly' from 'the good' in the industry. And that's a HUGE advantage in itself....

The lesson here is to contact a
headhunter FIRST. When you are looking for something as important as your next job, doesn't it make sense to work one-on-one with a professional recruiter who works for you?
