Commercial truck driving has a reputation for grueling hours, weeks away from home, and a burly machismo that isn't particularly welcoming to women. It’s high time that reputation got a makeover. A
2017 report
by the American Trucking Association noted that the industry needs to hire almost 900,000 more drivers to meet rising demand, while
the latest jobs report noted that 185,000 jobs have been added over the past four months alone.
Bottom line: this sector is getting desperate for talent, and the problem is only worsening.
