The driver posts the terms. Carriers compete on them.
Most job boards run one way: the carrier posts, the driver applies, the driver waits. DriverMarket runs the other way.

For fleet operators
Stop spending thousands recruiting one driver.
Indeed clicks, recruiter commissions and Facebook lead forms burn budget on orientation no-shows and empty seats. Search a live database of pre-vetted drivers instead, and message them directly.
The status quo: $3,000–$8,000 per hire
Recruiters, background agencies, cost-per-click listings and the dispatch losses of an empty seat.
DriverMarket: one flat subscription
Search immediately, message directly, download driver sheets. Fill seats in days, not weeks. No per-hire fee.
Reverse sourcing: the loop, flipped
Most job boards run a slow loop that wastes everyone's time. We put recruiters and professional drivers in instant, structured alignment.
The slow loop
Traditional boards- 1
Carrier posts an open run
Pay details are hidden or generalized; boards charge hefty listing and click rates.
- 2
Driver fills in the same forms again
Profile data goes to dozens of generic aggregate boards.
- 3
Wait, then ghosting
Recruiters are buried in bad leads; drivers wait weeks without feedback.
- 4
Turnover
The run-terms mismatch surfaces too late, and the seat empties again.
The reverse loop
DriverMarket- 1

Exact preferences: minimum CPM, lanes, home-time requirements.

Everything you need to know
Instead of drivers spending hours filling out repetitive applications and waiting for recruiters, drivers build one detailed professional profile with their CDL credentials, route preferences and pay expectations. Carriers search this live database and apply directly to drivers with transparent, structured job offers.
The $29/month Pro subscription keeps your profile active, pre-vetted, and positioned at the top of recruiter searches. It pays for itself almost immediately: at 120,000 miles a year, a single extra cent per mile is $1,200 back in your pocket, which is more than three years of membership. Our Driver Success Calculator above lets you run the math on your own annual miles.
Traditional recruiting platforms charge per job post, click, or candidate unlock, averaging $3,000 to $8,000 per hire. Driver Market offers unlimited searching, direct messaging, and applicant management for a flat monthly subscription, so a carrier filling several seats a month lowers cost per hire dramatically. There is no per-hire fee and no charge to contact a driver.
Every Pro driver uploads their CDL and current medical examiner's certificate, and our team checks both by hand before the profile earns its pre-vetted badge. That confirms one thing precisely: the driver is licensed and medically qualified to be behind the wheel. It is deliberately not a safety-history check. We are not permitted to run MVR, PSP or Clearinghouse queries on a driver's behalf, so accident and violation history stays where it belongs, with the carrier, who pulls it under their own authority and to their insurer's requirements. Pre-vetted means you start from a shortlist of people whose paperwork is real and current, instead of an unfiltered pile.
The lane, the rate and the home time. Before you apply.
Every listing states what it pays and where it runs, in writing. No recruiter call needed to find out, and nothing that changes after you say yes.
