Partners & Military
When our drivers climb in the cab and take to the highways to serve our customers, they are part of something greater than themselves. And we bet you know a thing or two about that. If you have proudly served in our Armed Forces it means you know what it takes to work as a team to get a job done. That's exactly what we're looking for here. If you're ready to explore careers beyond your military service, do what so many of your fellow Veterans have and consider Dot Transportation, Inc. (DTI).
What We Offer to Veteran Drivers
Veteran Employee Resource Group
DTI provides veteran drivers the chance to participate in the Veteran Employee Resource Group (VERG) to help recruit, retain, and improve our opportunities for veterans. This group not only helps our employees but also conducts community service in our surrounding communities to support veterans.
Army PaYS Program
One of our goals is to help veterans transition from their military service to a fulfilling driving career. We work with the Army PaYS program—which guarantees a job interview for veterans—and with Army transition offices in the U.S. to recruit transitioning personnel.
VA-Approved Apprenticeship
Many of our veteran drivers have come to us through a VA-approved apprenticeship.
Illinois Hires Heroes Consortium
We have also hired many veterans at our Mt. Sterling and University Park locations through the Illinois Hires Heroes Consortium.

From Our Veterans
Driver Warren Freeman
“In the military, you’ve got your leaders and good leaders care for their subordinates. And here at DTI, I’ve felt like I’m part of a family.”
Driver Adam McKinney
“DTI’s been great to me and my family. I get home when I need to be. They’re really flexible with me. It just shows you how much they care about their people—veterans included.”
