Bet you didn’t know Sparky worked for Amazon, huh? What made me select this ad on CL was the note that a California Driver’s License is not a requirement for a job where you will be driving all day long. So I clicked on Apply Now, in case this, in spite of the wording of the ad, was a warehouse type job, but no, it’s for a driver position. And on that page, it does say that you do need a valid CDL.
What Amazon Sparky should have said was that no special class license was required. I wonder how many of his fellow Sparkies click and fill out the app and then are disappointed in not being selected because they don’t meet the requirements? Anyway, might be a good idea to avoid those vans when you see them on the road. Just a PSA from Sparkyville.
It’s a picyune point, but, in the driving trade, “CDL” is well-kmown parlance for Commercial Driver’s License.
The more fine point is that, CA probably requires a CDL while being employed as a comnercial driver, if that is one’s primary job description. Several states require delivery drivers to have CDL. Now, some wmployers skirt this by writing non-driving duties into the delivery driver job description. Others just make the position p/t (which is very dicey, legally).
For a make you ho “hmmm” UPS “seasonal” drivers (who must have a CDL) $20.50/hr, which can be filled by “staffing agencies ” So. The question becomes how much is Spark being paid to pay out a paltry $16.25?

I should have known. Still, posting in California, Sparky should clarify for those of us who are ready to point the Finger of Scorn.

[cory]I too drive for hire. I am not required to have a CDL. Federally, the vehicle must be below 26000 gvwr. (At least that is the way it was when I drove commercial vehicles.) Many employers require their drivers to have a CDL without the qualifying vehicles so they believe they will get better drivers.[\cory]

Also note that Congress tried to pass a law that would require people like me to have a CDL a few years ago, but it didn’t pass. I drive an Expedition.
