Ground every answer in facts on this page and the original listing. We never invent Glassdoor-style reviews or salaries that are not in our data.
Expect questions on recent OTR miles, dry-van securement, HOS discipline, and how you handle breakdowns or tight delivery windows. Know ELDT/CDL basics and be ready to describe a clean pre-trip and log scenario.
Strong fit if you have a CDL, roughly 1–5 months trucking experience, and want company OTR dry van rather than local or specialized freight. Less ideal if you need fixed local routes or remote/office work (role is not remote).
As an OTR dry-van driver for U.S. Xpress, a typical day is road-and-dock focused:
Core: CDL, safe vehicle inspection, cargo securement, accurate HOS/service logs, customer paperwork.
OTR dry van for U.S. Xpress—long-haul company driving, not a desk or remote role.
The title calls for about 1–5 months of experience.
