All we do is help good drivers find jobs at top notch companies. We look forward to assisting you in your job search and encourage you to give us a call at (916) 306-5956 or upload your resume as soon as possible.
Are you a temp company?
We’re not like any company out there because of all the different services we offer trucking companies, private fleets, and 3rd party logistics carriers. Companies hire us to do recruiting and staffing of their fleets, we are hired as an advertising agency to help them fill their open job positions, and we train trucking companies on how to hire commercial truck drivers with our Driver DNA Hiring System, or are enrolled in our Truck Driver Recruitment Outsourcing Program.
The benefit drivers who register with us get is exposure to more companies that are looking to fill their open long term full time positions now. When you register with us, your application will be presented to the companies that we are recruiting for long term full time positions, companies who use our advertising agency for us to help them fill their open jobs and all the companies we have trained in our truck driver hiring program, Driver DNA Hiring System, or are enrolled in our Truck Driver Recruitment Outsourcing Program.
What kind of jobs do you have?
80% of our jobs available are long term full time jobs. 20% of our jobs available are project and/or temporary jobs. This allows us to cater to the drivers who are looking for a place to retire from and those that enjoy the constant change in the type of trucks and deliveries they work with day to day, or week to week.
We offer a full range of truck driving jobs with some of the nation’s leading carriers. You can choose between great local or regional driver jobs with routes and schedules that suit your needs.
How long does it take to get a job through Driver DNA Staffing?
That depends on the type of job you are looking for. Our goal is to make the job search and application process quick and simple for you, while also ensuring that each match is a perfect fit for both parties. If you are looking for a good truck driving job at a top company, delivering general freight locally, the length of time it takes to get hired is relatively short. If you are looking for a specific type of truck driving job, like pulling a specialized trailer or hauling specific product, it can take longer. Keep in mind that other drivers have likely expressed interest in the same job position and how fast you respond could impact your chances of getting hired for your perfect driving job.

The job placement specialist will not reveal the name of the company until you express interest in being interviewed for the job and they confirm that you meet the hiring requirements for the company.

You do not have to accept any driver job that is presented to you. If you are not interested in any job available, you can simply ignore our contact attempts. Future job opportunities will still be emailed to you for consideration unless you specify otherwise.
Why can’t I see any company names?
Simple. The companies we work for have hired us because they either don’t have a hiring department or they just don’t have the time to answer a ton of phone calls and go through the process to hire a qualified truck driver while trying to run their operations.
They use us because we know the driver hiring process and do it on a daily basis. The companies give us all the information on their driver job and we go and actively recruit and screen potential qualified truck drivers and weed out the unqualified truck drivers.
Answering all driver questions, and handling the compliance of recruiting and hiring a qualified truck driver. This allows the company to keep their business running, and in many cases helps the company grow by adding more drivers to their fleet. This allows small to medium sized companies to compete with the larger corporations that have recruiting departments.

Always. Don’t accept a driving job from a company who is unwilling to answer all of your questions.

How do I choose the right job for myself?
The first step is to clearly think through what job factors are most important to you. When you talk to your dedicated job placement specialist, they will guide you through a series of questions and make sure they understand what is important to you in a job. When you understand what you need in a job, your odds of finding the right job increases dramatically. Don’t gamble with your driving career. Jumping from job board to job board and posting to posting will lead to confusion and a less effective job search.
