If I graduated a truck driving school 5 years ago and still have my CDL but no experience, will anyone hire me?

I graduated truck driving school in 2005. I went OTR for a few months then I was offered a local job. Haven't had alot of Class A driving in the last 5 years. I still have a Class A license with tanker and hazmat endorsements. Will anyone hire me?

Refresher course
by: NickV

CRST had me take a refresher course. I got out of truck driving school and couldn't find a job for 9 months so they had me take one. It was in little rock, was a week long and cost 500 dollars in which half of they paid. Yes you still have to go to their orientation afterwards which sucks but I'm sure that's with any company. Most companies want a minimum of 6 months in the past year so you may want to ask about this refresher but I'm just saying that's what crst did for me. Goodluck and keep us posted
