Our Story

Semi Expert was born out of real experience in the trucking world. After years of working in and around the industry, we saw a consistent challenge: companies struggling to find reliable staff, and hardworking professionals feeling overlooked.

That’s why we started Semi Expert — to bring clarity, speed, and purpose to the hiring process. Our vision is rooted in the truth of Psalm 119:105: “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” Just as light brings direction and steadiness, we strive to guide companies and candidates toward the right fit.

Our Mission

To be the guiding light in trucking and logistics recruiting — helping companies build strong, reliable teams while helping people find meaningful work that fits their life.

Our Values

  • Integrity – We believe trust is the foundation of every hire.

  • Clarity – A clear process with no surprises, resume spam, or hidden fees.

  • Dependability – We only present candidates who are qualified, reliable, and ready.

  • Purpose – Every connection we make is about more than filling a role — it’s about building a stronger industry and community.

Why Work With Us

  • No risk recruiting — contingency only; you pay only if you hire.

  • Specialized expertise — we understand trucking and logistics inside and out.

  • Personal connection — we care about the people as much as the placements.

At Semi Expert, we don’t just fill jobs. We build relationships that last.

Meet Our Founder

Hi, I’m Jacob Sanders, the founder of Semi Expert. I’ve spent years in and around the trucking industry, working closely with companies and drivers who keep America moving. Along the way, I saw a real need: fleets struggling to find reliable people, and hardworking professionals who weren’t finding the right opportunities.

That’s why I launched Semi Expert — to bring clarity, trust, and purpose to the hiring process. My approach is simple: treat people the way I’d want to be treated, honor commitments, and always aim to be a light in the process. As Psalm 119:105 says, “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.”

For me, recruiting isn’t just business — it’s about relationships, integrity, and helping both companies and individuals succeed together. 

Why I can help you succeed.

I understand the trucking and logistics industry from the inside. I’ve seen the long hours, the hiring struggles, and the constant demand for dependable people. That experience allows me to speak your language and cut through the noise — no wasted time, no resume spam, just real solutions.

I’ll help you succeed because I bring:

  • Industry insight — I know the challenges fleets and shops face every day.

  • Personal investment — I started Semi Expert to solve the problems I saw firsthand.

  • Clear process — simple agreements, fast turnaround, and a guarantee that reduces your risk.

  • Purpose-driven focus — I believe every placement should serve both the company and the candidate long-term.

At Semi Expert, I don’t just want to fill a role. I want to help you build a stronger, more reliable team that keeps your business moving forward.
