Learn to Evaluate Freight, Not Just Find It

We are hiring Entry-Level Freight Dispatchers to support U.S. transportation operations with a focus on freight evaluation, load selection, mileage calculations, and operational planning.

This position is entry-level specifically in professional freight dispatching. Previous employment as a freight dispatcher is not required. Applicants must, however, have relevant exposure to U.S. trucking or transportation operations and a working understanding of freight load boards.

The right candidate should understand that a load cannot be evaluated by rate alone. Deadhead, loaded miles, equipment, appointments, driver availability, Hours of Service, and operating requirements all affect whether freight makes sense for a truck.

What You'll Evaluate

• Search DAT One, Truckstop, or comparable freight load boards.
• Compare available freight by lane, equipment type, mileage, rate, and appointment requirements.
• Calculate loaded miles, deadhead miles, total trip miles, and rate per mile.
• Identify excessive deadhead and inefficient freight options.
• Review pickup and delivery schedules for operational feasibility.
• Consider available driver Hours of Service when evaluating loads.
• Determine whether available equipment is appropriate for the freight.
• Identify potential delays, accessorial considerations, and unusual load requirements.
• Organize suitable freight options for authorized review and booking.

Understanding Freight Economics

Freight evaluation requires looking beyond the advertised load rate.

You will be expected to understand how factors such as:

• Loaded mileage
• Deadhead mileage
• Rate per mile
• Equipment type
• Pickup and delivery appointments
• Driver Hours of Service
• Freight lanes
• Driver location and availability
• Potential detention or other accessorial situations

affect the operational value of a load.

Applicants should be comfortable working with mileage calculations, spreadsheets, freight information, and basic trip economics.
