Similar companies came to recruit when I was there, too. Additionally, Schneider, US Xpress, Werner...and one other which I can't think of at the moment visited, too. I would take everything the recruiters say with a grain of salt (several grains). After all, they are trying to get you to work for their company. It's like selling a product. Each try to make their company and jobs sound like a 20 layer wedding cake (not the dried out brownies they might turn out to be). Ask a lot of questions and don't rely on one-sided, optimistic answers. The school actually gives you a list of questions to ask about the companies. Also, depending on the company terminal locations and your home location, getting home often may be a factor in your decision. The company I work for does a good job of getting me home when I need/want to. Talk to the instructors a lot! They are very helpful!
