CDL-A Truck Driver Mentor (Home Weekly)
Job Type: Full-Time | Driver Trainer / Mentor
Experience Required: CDL-A with minimum training eligibility
Why This Job Stands Out:
Tired of getting paid for only your miles? As a Driver Mentor , you'll earn for every single mile the truck drives — whether it's you or your student behind the wheel. That means more pay, faster while helping new drivers launch their careers.
Pay & Bonuses:
Weekly Base Pay: $1,225 – $1,455 (before any bonuses)
Base CPM + Tiered Pay Scale (experience-based)
+ $0.10 CPM while training
+ $0.04 CPM productivity bonus
Bonuses after student milestones:
$500 after 10K safe miles
$300 after 20K safe miles
Elite Mentor Rewards : After 6 students trained, earn $0.01 CPM for every mile they drive in their 1st solo year
Mentor Program Structure:
Runs average 11 days OTR (NOT 3–4 weeks out like other mentor roles)
Students must drive minimum 5 hours per day — you can maximize the rest of the 14-hour clock
Flexible breaks: Take a week off or run solo between students
Paid Development Training: $850 completion pay + extra bonuses for student pickup/dispatch
Professional Mentor Development
NextGen Mentor Training Program (hotel & meals provided)
Online training checklist for smoother mentoring
Structured system designed to set mentors & students up for success
✅ What You Get:
Paid on all truck miles (driver + student)
Priority loads & dispatch
Bonus programs that stack with CPM
Long-term passive earnings from your trained students
Medical, Dental, Vision + 401(k) w/ company match
Paid holidays, vacation, and wage increases
Requirements:
CDL-A License (clean record required)
At least 3+ months driving experience (mentor-eligible)
Must pass DOT drug screen & background check
Professional attitude & ability to coach new drivers
