Why Trucking?
Truck driving has become an increasingly popular career choice for young people in Canada, and it’s not hard to see why. Canada offers a stable and well-paying job market for truck drivers, thanks to its ever-growing demand for goods transportation. This makes it an attractive option for those seeking financial security.
Additionally, Ontario’s inclusive and diverse society provides a welcoming environment for young people from around the world to pursue their dreams. Newcomers find a sense of belonging in this multicultural setting while still preserving their cultural heritage.
However, obtaining a Commercial Truck Driver license is NOT the most important step toward getting a dream job. Employers often prefer experienced drivers but are willing to consider newly licensed truckers. In such cases, the quality of the MELT (Mandatory Entry-Level Training) program attended by the job-seeker plays a critical role. Employers look closely at the trucking school’s reputation, and attending a discount school that rushes through poorly-trained students can be a red flag.
For those aspiring to secure good, stable, and well-paying jobs, choosing a reputable school is essential, even if it may seem more expensive and time-consuming in the short run.
