by Tom Kelley May 18, 2012

We hope you are enjoying the beginning of what is sure to be an incredible season of change. In the past months we have implemented several design changes to improve the functionality and visual appeal of the site, and expect many more improvements to come over the summer! our team at ETJ is devoting all of our time to ensuring that drivers always have all of the information and opportunities they need to succeed and stay ahead of the curve in the trucking industry. With the addition of our Trucking Blog and Trucking News sections, drivers can stay up to date on the latest news and events in transportation, as well as gaining a new perspective on older aspects of the industry.

Our next major change is going to involve a major design adjustment to the layout of ETJ, to go with a brand-new logo! While this change is in the works, we are less than 2 months away from launching the new redesign; we are working around the clock to develop a unique and custom feel which will appeal to drivers and make it easier for everyone to find trucking jobs and stay up-to-date on the latest news in the trucking industry!

Our team of developers are also working on extending our network of trucking related websites which will serve drivers in ways which will extend the services provided by ETJ (in addition to our nearly-complete Driver Referral Software). These new additions, which should also be finalized in the next month, include a trucking classifieds site to allow for drivers to post resumes and trucking companies to post individual jobs, and also a cdl training school website that can help prospective drivers learn where they can go to train for their CDL. These new expansions are just a few of the many ways we are striving to improve our growing network of websites designed to make the lives of truckers more enjoyable and easier to manage!

From our entire team at EveryTruckJob.com, thank you for subscribing and taking the time to read our May 2012 newsletter! We hope your summer is filled with crisp skies, safe driving, reliable routes, and all the miles you could possibly hope to run!
