"An apology from L.J. Kennedy Trucking to the drivers we don't hire."

Lj_kennedy_trucking
Every time we review thirty applications, we disappoint twenty-nine applicants. (But, we do delight one elite professional).

Look, we don’t try to convince every driver that they belong with us. Actually, we’re only seeking the top drivers.

Our hiring criteria is demanding. But that’s why our drivers can be so demanding. And that’s why we pay our drivers so well. (Not to mention why we have one of the smallestpayroll deductions in the trucking
business for family medical coverage).

  • $1,095* per week/avg. pay

  • Family medical insurance

  • Home weekends

  • Company-paid pension plan
  • Did you know that our qualified drivers receive a company-paid pension? And are home each weekend?

    Maybe that explains why our turnover-rate is 29%, while the industry turnover-rate exceeds 130%. Turnover-rates tell you a lot about driver satisfaction, don’t they?

    If you want to be a part of one of America’s most selective carriers, call us now.

    The better you know us, the better we look.

    (866) I-WANT-LJ(866) 492-6855

    WARNING: Our work is for tough people. Heavy tarps. Climbing. But, our drivers receive family medical benefits with little or no payroll deduction. And, a pension. Home on weekends. Typically earn $56,940 per year. If you think L. J. Kennedy may be right for you, consult one of our recruiters NOW!

    *This claim about driver pay has been reviewed by Wiss & Company,
    one of America’s largest independent accounting firms.

    I am a new driver and I just graduated from North Harris College. I am not having any luck with my search for a job. I am looking for a local or a regional run that would result in no more then two days away from home at a time. If there is anyone out there that can offer my some advice please do so.
