The Opportunity
Food and freight can’t wait — and top producers don’t either.
Logistimax is looking for a true Hunter: a seasoned Freight Broker and B2B Sales Executive who loves outbound cold calling and closing FTL business.
This is a high-energy hybrid role. You’ll get the best of both worlds — the excitement of working on the trading floor with the team (phones ringing, deals happening fast) plus the flexibility to work from home on focused days. Our current team loves the work-from-home balance we offer and the fact that we’re not a big corporate machine.
If you’re competitive, thrive on the hunt, and want to earn very high commissions while being supported (not micromanaged), this is a rare opportunity to make serious money with a company that genuinely wants you to win.
What You’ll Do
- Execute daily cold calling blocks to build a high-velocity pipeline of qualified prospects
- Hunt for shippers who are overworked, underserved, and overstressed — then become their trusted partner
- Run discovery calls, presentations, and guide deals through the sales process
- Sell and broker your own book with a team: negotiate rates, manage shipments, solve problems, and build long-term relationships
- Work closely with our tight-knit operations team to deliver exceptional service
- Track shipments proactively, mitigate risks, and keep customers happy
- Analyze market trends and make smart pricing decisions
Who We’re Looking For
- Minimum 2 years proven B2B cold calling and sales success (logistics/OTR experience is a big plus)
- Strong closer who excels at high-volume outbound calling, building rapport quickly, and moving prospects forward
- Self-motivated, resilient, and able to thrive in a fast-paced environment
- Detail-oriented with excellent organization and follow-through
- Team player who also crushes it independently
Big bonus if you have an existing book of business or strong carrier relationships.
Compensation & Culture
- On-Target Earnings exceeding $250,000+ with very high, uncapped commissions
- Uncapped Commissions - Highest in the industry
- Top performers routinely make well into six figures with no ceiling
- Full benefits package (health, dental, vision)
- Hybrid flexibility that our team actually enjoys (as tenure grows, so does WFH)
- Supportive, non-corporate environment — we cut the bureaucracy and focus on results
- A company that invests in your success and wants you to build a long-term, high-earning career here
Location: Hybrid – Johns Island, SC 29455
(as tenure grows, so does WFH)

What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in Over-the-Road truck driver jobs.
- Valid Class A CDL with a clean driving record
- Minimum of one to two years of verified OTR driving experience

- Hazmat or Tanker endorsement for specialized freight roles

Tips for Your Over-the-Road Truck Driver Job Search
List every endorsement on your resume
Your CDL-A is the baseline, but endorsements like Hazmat, Tanker, and Doubles/Triples set you apart. Put them in a dedicated credentials section near the top so hiring managers spot them before reading your work history.
Show your safety record clearly
Carriers pull your CSA scores and DAC report before they call you. If your record is clean, say so explicitly in your resume summary. Candidates who flag a clean MVR and zero preventable accidents move faster through screening.
Filter openings by home-time schedule
OTR postings vary widely, from true 21-and-out runs to flexible regional hybrids. Read the home-time language carefully before you apply. Applying only to roles whose schedule matches your situation saves time for you and the recruiter.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists over-the-road truck driver openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare for a road test and orientation
Most carriers require a pre-hire road test and a one-to-three day paid orientation before your first load. Ask about the orientation location and length during your screening call so you can plan your schedule and avoid accepting conflicting commitments.
Negotiate sign-on bonuses with timing in mind
Sign-on bonuses for OTR drivers are often paid in installments tied to hitting mileage milestones. Before you accept, confirm the payout schedule in writing and ask whether the bonus is forfeited if you leave before the final installment.
Over-the-Road Truck Driver Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most over-the-road truck drivers?
The companies hiring the most over-the-road truck drivers right now include Schneider, Estes Express Lines, and KeHE Distributors, with the largest share of openings in California, Florida, and Minnesota, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Freight carriers, food and beverage distributors, and retail supply chain operators consistently post the highest volume of OTR openings.
How many over-the-road truck driver jobs are remote?
About 18% of over-the-road truck driver openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the hands-on nature of the role. Dispatch coordination, load planning, and fleet support positions within trucking companies are the sub-areas most likely to offer remote or hybrid arrangements.
How do you become a over-the-road truck driver?
Earn your Class A CDL by completing an accredited truck driving school or carrier-sponsored training program, passing the DOT physical, and clearing the written and skills tests at your state DMV. After licensing, build verifiable experience on shorter regional runs before transitioning to long-haul OTR routes, and add endorsements like Hazmat or Tanker to qualify for a broader range of freight.
How do you get hired as an over-the-road truck driver with little experience?
Many large carriers run paid CDL training programs that hire graduates directly into OTR seats, so a lack of prior OTR miles is not automatically disqualifying. Focus on carriers that advertise student driver or recent-graduate programs, be transparent about your logbook hours, and highlight any time you spent on a trainer truck, flatbed, or local delivery route to demonstrate you can handle real freight conditions.
What does the over-the-road truck driver interview process look like?
The process typically starts with a phone screen covering your CDL status, endorsements, and work history, followed by a consent to run your MVR and DAC report. Candidates who clear the background check are invited to an in-person or virtual meeting with a driver manager, then complete a road test at a terminal. Orientation, which covers ELD training, company policies, and load procedures, is the final step before your first dispatch.
Where can I find and apply to over-the-road truck driver jobs?
You can find and apply to over-the-road truck driver jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from carriers and freight operators across the United States. Search the listings to find roles that match your CDL class, endorsements, and preferred home-time schedule, then apply directly to each one that fits.
