I would suggest using the link here for new drivers to investigate a lot of the companies online, check out their equipment, web site design, what their mission statement is, do they rate well with people. Beware that a lot of companies are like politicians, they tell you what you want to hear but when you get there, WOW, a whole different story lol. Here is a linkI used to check out my present job:

I looked at Schneider as well but they wanted me to get a Hazmat, no thank you, I would not reccomend Millis Transfer either, They will let any truck driver train you, and I have heard they cancelled a few classes on students and never reschedualed them and kept that persons money $500 non refundable deposit. I looked at Pam Transport, Schneider, Covenant, Werner, Stevenson, Millis, US Express, Averitt, KB Transportation, Gordon, and about 30 other companies.

Take your time and do your research, it will pay off. Ask a lot of questions when talking to recruiters. Once you get 6 months of training in get a hold of me and I will get you into my current company working 5 off 2 days every week.
Good luck
