Hope this is the right place to ask - as a recently qulaified class 2 driver, how do I go about getting work abraod specifically in America, Australia and Canada? Has anyone done it and what experineces did you have? I’d love to visit those countries and would love even more to get paid for it.
ex pats forum would be better to post in!
The only way I’ve heard of getting into America (unless you have family connections) is via a special scheme to get a holiday job working the grain harvest…no idea how to get on it though. Canada used to be relatively easy for long haul class one drivers, but there are very few rigid diving jobs open to temporary foreign workers. Your first priority would be getting a class one licence and some international experience. There is a fella on here called Chris Arbon, who has an excellent blog about trucking in Canada. There is also a forum called British Truckers abroad which is better than this one. Beware of Gremmie, though.
