My name is Mark Kinsel and I'm the President at Driver Solutions. I've been with the company for over 19 years. During this time, I've spent a great deal of my efforts managing our relationships with truck driving companies to make sure we're able to offer the best entry level truck driver job opportunities to our applicants. While the transportation industry has changed a lot over the years, there has always been a need for well-trained truck drivers.
At Driver Solutions, we've been able to help over 20,000 students get the training they need to start trucking careers and fill some of these positions. I hope to use this blog to help you find more information on the trucking job opportunities that are available and how you can successfully get started in the industry. Follow Mark Kinsel on Google+
