I heard they hire through temp agencies, any truth to that?
Which temp agencies or have you that information?
With MANY TRUCKING COMPANIES preferring to use Temp Services/Agencies, such for AAA Cooper doesn't seem implausible.
There are some Truck Driver Lease Services (Pro Drivers, MTS, etc.), like they think they own a person, as well some other general temp services that will not pay anything worth your experience.
Driving a truck, especially a Combo, requires more than a waste of time $10.00-$13.00 a hour.
Being a "professional truck driver" doesn't anymore appear to demand "professional" recognition unlike Professions where Degrees of Education as well Levels attained (Apprentice, Journeyman, etc.) impart Professionalism.
A small list through Google of Truck Driver Temporary Services/Agencies not to be allied with the original post content:

Thank You.
G'Day!!

C-K,
Old saying: You don't hire a truck driver for what he does,
You hire him for what he knows........
Such as: Route knowledge and terrain.
Scale/inspection locations.
Load balance at capacity.
How to get unloaded and reload
(This used to be known as going and coming...)
Taking care of the rig with common hand tools.
Not many with these talents left out there
