So what is the salary range?

Salary is completely dependant upon the candidate. We are looking for someone who has all the neccesary licenses, and certs already. OR the desire to obtain them within 12 months of employment (6 months for CDL).

The sky is the limit at Mayer. I have doubled my starting salary in the three years I have been with them!
