Is JB HUNT GETTING INTO BULK?
Pulled this ad off the JB Hunt jobline. I check JB's jobline every month or so. I have never seen this one posted before.
Average Yearly Gross: $60,000
Average Weekly Gross:
Job Description: Airgas, one of the leading manufacturers and marketers of industrial and specialty gases in the world, has full-time opportunities for Bulk Tanker Drivers. Class A bulk tanker driver with hazmat endorsement needed for 24-7 cryogenic gases delivery. 98% of runs are less than 500 mile turns, home nightly. 5 days on, 2 consecutive days off. Qualified drivers will deliver cryogenic products throughout OH, WV, Western NY, and MI areas. Looking for singles and/or teams.
Is JB getting into bulk? Or is this old news?

It looks like they are just recruiting for Airgas. Sheepdancer did some recruiting for Praxair when he was with JB.

Yes, JB outsources its recruiters to other companies. Praxair, Schwans and airgas are the only ones I know of, but there could be others now.

Most of the good stuff like that is not open to the newbies. Unless the economy is smokin' hot and they are hard up its 2-3 years of experience with a squeaky clean MVR minimum.
