CDL driver recruiting
Recruit drivers for the job you actually need to fill.
RoadHouse Recruiting helps trucking carriers connect with CDL Class A drivers through a process built around the hiring area, route, equipment, qualifications, compensation structure and home-time expectations of each role.
Better alignment
CDL recruiting starts with a clear job profile.
A broad request for “Class A drivers” is rarely enough. Drivers compare route type, expected miles, pay method, equipment, freight, home time, operating area and carrier policies. We start with those details so the recruiting conversation reflects the real position rather than a generic promise.
Hiring area and route
Define where drivers must live, where freight runs and whether the job is OTR, regional, local or dedicated.
Qualifications
Clarify required experience, endorsements, safety standards, equipment background and any customer-specific requirements.
Driver expectations
Explain pay structure, home-time policy, dispatch practices, equipment, touch requirements and the carrier’s hiring process.
Recruiting process
From role intake to carrier review.
- Define the opening. We discuss the job, hiring locations, qualifications, schedule, compensation structure and start-date needs.
- Review driver information. Our intake process gathers license class, experience, safety history, location, route preference and availability.
- Discuss potential alignment. Relevant driver information supports an initial conversation about the opportunity and the driver’s priorities.
- Complete your hiring process. The carrier remains responsible for qualification checks, interviews, employment decisions and onboarding.
Operations supported
Recruiting for different fleets and freight.
